The CSP Children’s Residential Program is a crisis residential program available to children in Orange County referred by the Orange County Heath Care Agency and Youth Services. CSP is a short-term crisis intervention program for at-risk children from 11 to 17.

The residential program is designed to support family changes, so that teens and parents can reunite and find the closeness that they had previously enjoyed.

CSP professionals work with the teens to explore their options, and support them in finding a safe and more nurturing place to live. CSP is in Laguna Beach and serves South Orange County.

The wish list includes gift certificates, art and learning supplies, enjoyment, cooking and cleaning their space, clothing, and the special wish of a mentor.

Their wish list also includes the wish of sponsoring an outing that is educational or a physical activity, or adopt a day to decorate the shelter for the holidays.

The complete list of wishes is available at Pure Light or by calling the CSP Youth Shelter at (949) 494-4311.

“There is no greater gift that the gift of hope and happiness, and these kids deserve our support as they find their way. As they say at CSP, ‘Our future is in their hands,’” said Judy Kelly of Pure Light.

CSP invites anyone to come down for the tour of their home by giving them a call.

For more information on CSP call (949) 494-4311; for information about Pure Light visit www.purelightcelebrations.com or call (949) 376-7200.
