In an effort to pool resources and information regarding these issues, Youth for Christ / St. Croix Valley has created this web site. Designed to both highlight available resources in the community and to provide some important information for those struggling with these concerns, this web site is for both teenagers and adults.
We encourage you to review the information here and contact any of the recourses listed if you or someone you know is dealing with depression, loneliness, talking about or considering harming themselves.
If you would like more information or maybe just need some to talk to, please give us a
call at 1-888-249-0384
any time, day or night. If you have thought or comments relating to these
issues or this web site, please feel free to e-mail them to us at
We here at Youth for Christ would like to help the students, families and community of New Richmond in any way that we can during this difficult time of loss and sorrow. We would like everyone to know that we are here, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and that they should feel free to calls us any time.

In addition, we would like to provide this list of other resources available in the area. We have spoken to most of those on this list and they are eager to help.
I have also included some additional information on our Youth Guidance Program. We work with at-risk and in-crisis teenagers and their families throughout the St. Croix Valley.
