YPAS
offers advice on a wide variety of issues including welfare
rights, housing, drug and substance use, health issues
and more.
Advice
If
we cannot help you, we can hopefully refer you to another
agency who can give you more specific advice. If we need
to liaise with outside agencies on your behalf your permission
with always be requested.
You
can make an appointment with one of our staff by calling
in or giving us a ring. Sometimes you may be able to access
advice by telephoning or calling in to the drop-in, if
appropriate staff members are available.
Support
We all need support through difficult
times in our lives YPAS aims to provide a non-judgmental
environment which could make all the difference.
We
provide informal support within the drop-in, and in some
cases we can offer more formal support such as advocacy
work.
