Teens (13 to 17 Years)
What to Do If You’re Being Neglected
You deserve love and care!
If you are experiencing neglect in any form, it is not your fault.
Remember, it's important to speak up and seek help if you're not getting the care and support you need. There are people and resources available to help you through this.
Speak to someone you trust and ask for help. This could be:
A trusted older relative or friend
School counsellor
Teacher or school principal
Doctor or nurse
Going to Alex’s Place – HSA’s Adolescent Mental Health Hub in front of the George Town Hospital
