• Mental Wellness Center Youth Mental Wellness Coalition - $25,000 This coalition focuses on developing and implementing an effective, community-based mental health plan to connect youth ages 12 through 26 and their families to mental wellness resources and support before a crisis. Seeking to affect systemic change, the coalition is working to improve communication and outreach between secondary schools and local mental health agencies through centralized tools and resources as well as educational opportunities for parents, youth, and school staff. As a new coalition, the group is also working to establish a leadership structure and develop shared responsibility among stakeholders for the success of the coalition’s work. • Pacific Pride Foundation (PPF) Counseling for LGBTQ+/HIV Communities - $44,340 Partner: Antioch University In collaboration with Antioch University, this program expands counseling services to the LGBTQ+ community through additional individual and group therapy sessions, plus a new LGBTQ+ identity group.
