Crisis management in the Aftercare program focuses on providing immediate, short-term support to youth experiencing periods of significant stress or disruption in their lives. The overall objective is to ensure the timely and effective resolution of crises, helping youth cope with emotional, mental, and physical stress. This support is not intended to replace long-term psychotherapy but rather to offer assistance, resources, and stabilization.

¶ Touchpoint 1 — Aftercare Circle
A meeting where the Wingmen of a particular SSG come together with the city's Aftercare Fellow to plan the upcoming SSG and share youth updates. Not youth-facing. Held once per Aftercare Cycle, at least a week before the SSG. Recommended duration: 3 hours. Facilitated by the Aftercare Fellow — mandatory for all wingmen in the group. The first Aftercare Circle — an icebreaker meeting:
¶ Touchpoint 2 — SSG MeetingWingmen and Youth of a particular SSG come together with the Aftercare Fellow to connect, discuss problems, and run bonding and experiential activities — a safe space for the youth. Held once per Aftercare Cycle, right after the Aftercare Circle. Recommended duration: 3-4 hours. Stage 1 — Pre-SSG
Stage 2 — SSG Meeting
Stage 3 — Post-SSG
¶ Touchpoint 3 — Weekly Wingman–Youth InteractionA wingman checks in with their assigned youth every week, one-on-one — by call or meeting. This is especially critical for youth aged 18-21, who are newly transitioning out of Child Care Institutions and need the most consistent support. Logged through a Google Form right after each session, to confirm the weekly interaction actually happened and flag any risk observed — without recording private conversation details.

¶ Success criteria: Every chapter has a running Aftercare Circle, a completed SSG cycle (Pre → Meeting → Post) with attendance marked on Platform Commons, and a verified weekly wingman-youth interaction on record for every youth, with risk flags followed up promptly.
