Today is World Mental Health Day.?At a time when 1 in 6 U.S. youth aged 6-17 experiences a mental health condition each year, it is important to raise awareness about mental health and help youth find resources that promote their wellness. Today, and every day of the year, Edgewood is committed to being the place for Bay Area youth and families to find the care they need in support of their mental health and well-being.

关于我们
Edgewood Center for Children and Families is a nonprofit provider of behavioral health, family support, and educational services that touch the lives of thousands of children, youth, and families in San Francisco and San Mateo counties each year. Founded in 1851 in San Francisco, Edgewood is the oldest children’s charity in the Western U.S. and has become recognized nationally as a multifaceted agency that transforms lives and restores hope for children and families. We believe a holistic approach to behavioral health can transform the lives of children, youth and their families. Taking a family-centered and integrated approach, our work focuses on issues such as mental health, family relationships and life skills. What guides us is our belief in every child we serve and our values of engaging families, developing community, generating hope and embracing diversity. We are proud to have a positive impact on 7,000 children and families every year, and in our efforts to continuously improve outcomes more broadly through our research and training programs.

We honor Willie Mays' legacy as a trailblazing athlete, generous philanthropist, and community leader. In addition to providing support to Edgewood Center through his Say Hey Foundation for many years, he regularly made it possible for our youth and program staff to attend San Francisco Giants games. He also met with them when attending games and took an interest in visiting with each child and teen to learn about their interests and dreams. We honor his legacy and commitment to providing youth positive opportunities and safer communities.

Thank you to Edgewood Board Member Carrie Johnson for her energetic and creative efforts to raise awareness and support our programs. In March, she was an exhibitor at the 58th Edgewood Fair with her hand-made quilts, which the guests purchased and were delivered as comfort items for youth served by our Crisis Stabilization Unit. ? Carrie is now coordinating our second Edgewood Open, which will include tennis and pickleball to raise funds for the Crisis Stabilization Unit. Join us on Saturday, June 8th, for a day of fun that will support the life-saving services of the Edgewood Crisis Stabilization.? ?
