Our youth activities groups are part of our respite services, which aim to provide a scheduled break for the family and child to ease the stress when an emotional challenge exists. This provides a “breather” in which you – the parent or caregiver – can assess which resources will be of most benefit to your child and your family. Trained respite workers will provide group respite for your child, which may include fun recreational activities and socialization opportunities. 

This service may be for you if your children are between the ages of 8-17 and have a mental health diagnosis. Greater Mental Health’s Activities Group is free, and located in Rockland County.
