I am participating in Emily's Memorial Horse Show in support of CASA Mental Health. Funds raised through this event will support the CASA House Program. CASA House is a live-in program for teens age 13-17 who need support with significant mental health and/or addiction challenges. These youth have not responded as expected to previous therapy.

The program serves youth with various needs including severe mental health challenges, addictions issues, complex learning needs, family problems or social issues. Teens stay at CASA House for an average of four months.

About CASA Mental Health

CASA Mental Health’s team of mental health professionals are trauma experts committed to delivering service in collaboration with community partners and offering hope to children, youth and families throughout Alberta. This includes assessment and treatment for up to 4,000 children, youth and their families each year, from community outreach settings to intensive treatment programs.
