Services are available to youth, ages 3 to 17, who reside within the Carmel Clay School District.
Services are voluntary, confidential and are provided at no cost to the family. Once families consent to services, the early intervention advocate (EIA) helps design an individualized plan that addresses the youth’s obstacles and supports needed while also recognizing the strengths and interests of the youth and continuing to nurture those areas.
Mentoring is provided by trusted local CYAP volunteers and are selected based on the unique needs of each youth and the personal challenges they are facing. We work with the parents/caregiver to select the mentor that will provide the most benefit to the youth in providing companionship and adult role modeling.
These items are offered through coordination with faith based and community organizations, and local/state community agencies.
Resources are provided for students through local partnerships with counselors, licensed mental health practitioners, physicians, and other community-based resources.
These are available to students working with the Carmel Youth Assistance Program who can benefit from a positive recreational experience. CYAP works with families and community organizations to provide scholarships when needed.
Our youth are provided vetted tutors who have a background in education. Tutors are matched one-on-one with a student who meets the eligibility criteria for the program. CYAP also works directly with each elementary school to provide summer tutoring to referred youth.
Support is customized based on youths needs.
