Adults Supporting Kids ASK

Do you have worries about the safety of a child, young person or family?

Vision and mission

ASK's mission is to remove the stigma of asking for help early and often before reaching crisis point. It is OK to ASK for help. So ASK early and ASK often. Your family is important and so are YOU.
