Society’s youth and families thrive when they receive compassionate, experienced and knowledge-based support for mental health and overall well-being. When our families and children are doing well, our communities are healthier, better places to live.
On July 22, SBDC-OC leadership was honored to present a $2,500 donation to Western Youth Services toward assisting their mission of bringing mental health and wellness solutions to Orange County’s at-risk children and families. We are privileged to join in this cause which is rooted in the efforts of its founders who started this amazing organization in 1972. In this photo, a ceremonial check is presented to Western Youth Services leaders at their Laguna Hills office. We look forward to ways we can collaborate to help further the work of this nonprofit and its important impact.
