Description
YESS is a mental health outreach service for 12 – 25 year-olds who have, or are at risk of developing, a serious mental illness. We provide a service to the “missing middle” – young people who require a more intensive service than headspace Primary Care is funded to provide, but who do not meet NSW state mental health service’s criteria.

Risk assessment, risk management, and safety planning
Mental health treatment
Family and carer support services

Continual engagement with the young person’s GP
