🌱 Marching toward brighter futures!

Child & Family Center’s CORE team is all about connection, meeting students where they are on school campuses across the valley. By showing up in their spaces, we’re able to provide support, tools, and education in an environment where young people can feel heard, supported, and empowered.

Every conversation, activity, and moment of encouragement helps students build confidence and move forward with hope. 💙

It’s World Teen Mental Wellness Day 💙… and it’s time to change the narrative!

Being a teen today isn’t easy. Behind the smiles and social feeds, many young people are quietly carrying anxiety, depression, stress, and self-doubt. No one should have to face that alone.

At Child & Family Center, we provide expert care, trusted guidance, and a safe, supportive space where teens can feel heard, understood, and empowered. Our teen mental health services are available for families with Medi-Cal, because access to care should never be a barrier to getting help.

If your teen, or a teen you know, could use support, we’re here.

Let’s break the stigma.
Let’s listen more closely.
Let’s show up for our teens… together. 💬✨

💜 Wrapping Up Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month 💜

As we close out Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, our Prevention Team is proud to reflect on powerful collaborations with Arroyo Seco Junior High School and Golden Valley High School.

Through Valentine’s-themed Lunch & Learn events, students engaged in meaningful conversations about healthy relationships, personal safety, and making informed choices.
Interactive refusal skills activities and a “heart” safety exercise encouraged students to think critically about peer pressure, substance use, and recognizing situations that may not be safe.

These discussions created space for honesty, learning, and empowerment! Together, we continue building safer school communities by promoting respect, awareness, and healthy decision-making every day. 💜
