NORTH EAST OTTAWA FORUM
NEO Forum provides counseling services, education, support and resources to youth in order to reduce substance abuse, violence, juvenile delinquency and other risky behaviors. The NEO Forum staff is a unique combination of a full time counselor and an on site Sheriff Deputy who work closely with the school personnel and community members to help our youth.
NEO Forum Counselor, Katie Walsh, provides counseling services to students in grades K-12 and their families. Deputy Shane Ryke educates students in grades K-12 through anti-drug classes while still enforcing laws and ordinances in the school and municipalities. If you have any questions or feel that your child may benefit from these services, contact Ms.Katie Walsh, NEO Forum Counselor at 616-997-3519 or 616-997-3408.
