Banyan\u2019s vision is to be \u201ca transformational partner in the journey to build safe, inclusive and barrier free communities\u201d. One of Banyan\u2019s greatest strengths for achieving this is to challenge teams and individuals to be innovative and rethink approaches, to stretch beyond for the better good of those served. 2024-25 was no exception to this mindset. Here are just a few of the areas we are proud of achieving:<\/p>\n

Experiencing first-hand the province\u2019s growing concern to monitor the utilization of custody and detention systems to maintain appropriate capacity and response to changing needs within the youth justice system, Banyan submitted a business case to Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services (MCCSS) to increase the licensed bed capacity at Arrell Youth Centre (AYC) and Peninsula Youth Centre (PYC).<\/p>\n

On September 5, 2024 Banyan announced that, with the help of MCCSS, Banyan expanded their secure custody and detention program.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Banyan\u2019s Primary Care Team – comprised of Psychiatrist, Facility physicians, Social Workers and Nursing – support out-of-home youth on site while managing complex medical and mental health issues which in the past would have led to visits in community hospital emergency departments.<\/p>\n
