Last night’s Twilight Markets were a success, thank you to everyone who came along, the stall holders for showing off such amazing talent in our young people and to the hard workers at Alesco and Port Stephens Council that put everything together and kept the night running smoothly.

Shared from Youth of the Bay:
“Jupiter is COPSY’s new counselling service being provided for free to the Port Stephens youth aged 12-18 years old, creating a space to talk.

Statistics show that Port Stephens Youth encounter one of the highest rates of behavioural and mental health problems in New South Wales. Port Stephens also have the lowest number of mental health practitioners in New South Wales, meaning that existing services are constantly overflowing and forcing new patients to travel further distances to get treatment. Jupiter has been created in response to these statistics and boasts a central location in Salamander Bay equipped with counsellors who are approachable, understanding and experienced which is what Port Stephens youth are really looking for.

Jupiter is located in an accessible location in the Salamander Bay library, behind the Salamander bay square shopping centre.

Check out the brand new Jupiter website, it has some great information on there and also allows you to book an appointment free of charge.

If you need a space to talk, Jupiter are always listening.”

Life can be hard and lonely. Up and down at the best of times. We offer free counselling sessions in Port Stephens for 12-18 years old.
