CALM CALM envisions safe communities where every family is supported and every child thrives. Jackie was not ready to become a parent.

Imagine a world where all parents are supported and all children thrive. After her baby was born, she was so depressed, she didn't want to leave the house. She could barely look at her baby, and resented him every time he cried. Fortunately, a CALM home visitor met Jackie and got her help for her depression. The CALM worker taught Jackie how important speaking, singing and reading is to her baby's developing brain. Jackie learned about child development and appropriate expectations. Today, Jackie and her son have a happy, healthy relations and they are both thriving. CALM....protecting the most important relationship in the world.

Local data shows 43% of Santa Barbara County teens said they needed mental health help (compared to 33% across CA). Families are also carrying more stress than ever, and we've seen the results at CALM.

Before stress compounds into trauma, we meet children and caregivers where they are with bilingual, culturally responsive support at every level of need.

This World Mental Health Day, help kids and families in our community get the support they need. Give today at calm4kids.org
