Abstract
Considering the low self-image of many adoles- cents who are experiencing social, educational and emotional problems, it is suggested that we initiate helping efforts from a wellness perspective. Social agencies often create barriers to troubled adolescents through their administrative structure and emphasis on pathology. Through the collaboration of a family service agency and public recreation department, an outreach program is described that makes use of recreational activity as an entry point for a range of social, educational and mental health services. The use of-community agencies and involve- ment of the adolescents and their parents in setting goals are vital parts of this integrative approach.
