OUR
MANDATE
The
purpose of Moncton Youth Residences Inc. is to provide quality
care and guidance to youth between ten and twenty-four years of age
who have social, emotional, and behavioural problems.
The
goal is to help youth and their families change or eliminate the
conditions that have acted as obstacles to their success.
MYR
offers services within an integrated, multi-component continuum of
care. These include community services, in-home family support,
highly structured residential treatment programs,
and less structured transitional housing.
MYR
is the agency of choice for delivery of many programs and services
mandated by various government authorities with responsibilities
for at-risk youth. We also initiate programs for community
outreach and education in the Greater Moncton Area.

 WHAT
SOME YOUNG PEOPLE TOLD US
Question:
"What is the most important thing
you learned from MYR?
Answers:
How to deal with my anger.
Everything was important, but I guess it
was to forgive.
That my foster mom is there for me, and
not to put myself down so much.
When you get mad, go talk to people, and when you have problems, go see
people you trust.
To respect people and accept people for
who they are.
