Wellnest Emotional Health & Wellness

It’s not too late! Join us in bringing joy, comfort, and relief this holiday season. We are in need of gift cards or donations for our Transition Age Youth (TAY), ages 18-25, who are emancipated or aged out of the foster care system. Your generous gift will go a long way in making a difference in the lives of our underserved young adults. https://www.wellnestla.org/hgd/ ... #WellnestLA #LAcounty #Wellness #MentalHealth #WellBeing #BreakTheStigma #Holidays #GiftDrive #TransitionAgeYouth #GiftCard #TAY See more

Attention T-Mobile Customers: T-Mobile has become the first major carrier to enable the 988 phone shortcut to get rapid access to free suicide prevention and mental health counseling. Suicide is a national health crisis that leads to one death every 11 minutes. Particularly amid the pandemic and the holidays, the feature has the potential to save lives.

Looking to give back in ways other than a financial gift? You can support the children and families we serve by sharing Wellnest’s Holiday Gift Drive!

For many of the families we serve, the holiday season is not filled with joy and excitement, but with stress and worry. This year especially, parents and caretakers will juggle the pressure to provide gifts with the ongoing struggle to meet basic needs, such as paying rent and putting food on the table. Join together with family, friends, colleagues, or neighbors to make a family’s holiday wish list a reality. We look forward to sharing with you their story and... your impact.
