Why do we focus on

Heal the family, heal the child

Directly Impact Our Community

Whether directly through family sessions, parent events, support or education, we provide opportunities for children and families to grow closer and heal together.

We provide mental health services to families at a reduced or no-cost to remove the barrier to treatment caused by limited finances.

20% or 1 in 5 children suffer from a mental health or learning disorder.
