Last year, MACS supported 1,204 children and young people who were experiencing a range of issues including leaving care, mental health difficulties, homelessness, substance abuse, self harm/suicide, or who are marginalised and at risk.
We work across the areas of highest deprivation within the Greater Belfast, Lisburn, Downpatrick, Newry and the Co. Down areas. The children & young people we support often have become stuck; engaged in negative patterns of thinking and behaviour that prevents them from fulfilling their potential and leading the lives they want to lead. We help them through this period, so they can move on and achieve the goals they set for themselves.
In 2017, with your help; we want to support even more children & young people to fulfil their dreams.
