NATSAP Partners with Non-Profit to Help Troubled Teens
The National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs (NATSAP) has partnered with Saving Teens in Crisis Collaborative (STICC), another non-profit organization, in order to help teens who are struggling with substance abuse as well as other emotional issues. The partnership aims to help families who cannot afford services for troubled teens who are desperate for help.
“We are delighted to announce this partnership,” said Cliff Brownstein, Executive Director of NATSAP. “Our organization has been looking to work together with another nonprofit for some time, specifically to help less fortunate families. STICC's 501(c)(3) designation allows them to accept charitable contributions as a foundation, whereas we cannot, so this partnership provides a perfect solution.”
STICC has partnerships with wilderness programs, health organizations, rehab centers, therapeutic boarding schools, and more in order to find funding for parents who have teens that need therapeutic intervention. STICC also receives support from people who have sought help from therapeutic programs, have excelled and succeeded in life, and are looking for ways to give back and help other young people who need it. Many programs and individual grants partial scholarships through STICC.
NATSAP has decided to partner with an established non-profit organization that could accept donations instead of starting their own in order to more efficiently reach their goals.
Under the partnership agreement, NATSAP will actively recommend STICC to its member programs as the preferred foundation to receive donations.
STICC provides a long-term, holistic approach to help troubled teens. This holistic approach involves different professional disciplines in order to accurately determine what a child needs and to place him/her to the right kind of program.
