BestSelf Behavioral Health, Inc. counsels youth in WNY,

Child & Adolescent Treatment Services and Lake Shore Behavioral Health merged as of June 2017. Our fused organization is now BestSelf Behavioral Health, Inc. The merger allows us to expand our reach and become one of the largest community-based behavioral health organizations serving children and adults across the spectrum. The mission of our school based program-Building Brighter Futures (BBF) is to enhance students’ academic achievement, socio-emotional development and to foster lifelong interests in the arts, recreation, and other areas.

With so many youths in Buffalo turning towards violence and the streets, this is a great event for girls to understand how important they are to the WNY community and the world! Many young ladies have been the victims or perpetrators of violence in Buffalo. This event will help give them the tools to empower themselves to become women greater than their circumstances or neighborhoods.
