Prevention and Intervention:
working on both fronts
Whether it be related to critical life-saving intervention or early stage prevention measures, we continue to transform the lives of teens, young adults, and families in our community and communities nationwide.
prevention
We recognize the value in implementing proactive prevention-based programming at the onset or at the very early stages of unhealthy behavior. By identifying serious issues before they worsen, our specialized programs effectively addresses the challenges of various age groups and demographics.
intervention
The heart breaking pain that darkens the world of a teen or young adult and their family is very much our pain. We tackle life-threatening crisis on a daily basis- in our homes, our schools, and our communities. From emergency care to case management that spans over weeks, months, or years, we are there at any moment to offer support and recommend a course of action that is best suited for each individual or family that comes through our door. No matter how lonely, overwhelming and debilitating a situation is for all parties involved, Madraigos is there to hold a family’s hand and help them get through the challenge, day by day, step by step.
Founded in 2003 and based in Woodmere, NY, Madraigos is a community-based 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to guiding individuals and families facing life challenges. We offer a full spectrum of intervention services and prevention programming.
With sensitivity, support, and love, we ensure that every individual we serve knows that they're not alone in their struggle—that they can lean on us.
