Pathfinders is a site-based psychiatric rehabilitation program for youth. This program helps bridge the gap between child and adult service systems, identify and build on individuals’ strengths, and empower individuals by promoting self-efficacy and self-advocacy. Individuals will identify a goal in one or more of the following domains: living, learning, social, vocational, and wellness. Individuals will also build skills to support their identified goals, including: gaining independent living skills, pursuing chosen educational path, connecting with natural supports, obtaining meaningful employment, and learning to make nutritious meals.

This program serves individuals between the ages of 14 to 17, who reside in Crawford County, have the presence of, or history of, mental health concerns, and choose to receive services. This program is located at CHAPS (944 Liberty Street Meadville PA) and runs on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:00pm to 7:00pm.
