We have partnered with ParentGuidance.org who has generously provided no-cost access to mental health resources for parents and families looking for guidance. Please take time to explore the wonderful and helpful library of courses, developed by leading mental health experts to offer hope, answers, and compassionate help.

In partnership with The Cook Center for Human Connection, it is our pleasure to offer access to the animated series My Life is Worth Living as another helpful mental health resource for teens and their families.
This series includes five powerful stories told over 20 episodes. In each episode, relatable teen characters wrestle with challenges that are all too familiar for many viewers and discover strategies to cope when it feels like their own thoughts are against them. Over the course of each character’s journey, they realize that life is worth living.
