How The Loft at 8 Corners Transforms Teen Mental Health

We chat with Adrian Cardenas from Loft at 8 Corners, a first-of-its-kind teen-focused mental health center in Chicago’s western suburbs. In partnership with NAMI Metro Suburban and Pillars Community Health, The Loft offers free, year-round support for teens and families. Adrian shares heartwarming stories of how the program has touched lives through group support, family services, and one-on-one care, helping teens find the services they need. We also hear about the most memorable success stories, and imagine what the program would be like as a heartwarming Netflix documentary. As our chat unfolds, it's clear that this program is creating lasting change, offering hope, empowerment, and a brighter future for young people navigating their mental health journeys.
