Mental Wellness Initiative<br \/>\nProject Description:<\/p>\n<p>We respectfully request support for a dedicated Youth C.A.R.E. Mental Wellness Initiative serving children and teens (ages 5\u201317) experiencing or at risk of homelessness in Palm Beach and Broward Counties.<\/p>\n<p>As housing instability rises the emotional toll on youth is profound. Children facing sudden family disruption, economic hardship, food insecurity, and school instability experience significantly higher rates of anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, and behavioral challenges. Toxic stress during these formative years can impair cognitive development, academic performance, and long-term well-being. Yet accessible, culturally responsive mental health services for this population remain limited.<\/p>\n<p>Our Youth C.A.R.E. Initiative operates under our established C.A.R.E. (counseling, assessment, referrals, evaluation) behavioral health framework and serves children enrolled in our Pathway to Prosperity program, Prevention\/Diversion services, and outreach network. The initiative provides trauma-informed, developmentally appropriate interventions designed to promote healing and resilience.<\/p>\n<p>Core components include:<br \/>\n\u2022 Individual and group counseling led by licensed clinicians<br \/>\n\u2022 Weekly therapeutic support sessions focused on emotional regulation<br \/>\n\u2022 Mindfulness and coping-skills workshops<br \/>\n\u2022 Monthly caregiver workshops to reinforce coping strategies at home<\/p>\n<p>Over a 12-month period, we will:<br \/>\n\u2022 Conduct comprehensive mental health assessments for at least 40 youth<br \/>\n\u2022 Provide consistent behavioral health services to a minimum of 40 children<br \/>\n\u2022 Achieve reduced anxiety or emotional distress for 80% of participating youth (pre\/post evaluations)<br \/>\n\u2022 See 85% of caregivers report improved emotional regulation and behavior<\/p>\n<p>Nearly half of those we serve are children. By addressing mental health alongside housing stability, we ensure young people do not simply exit crisis\u2014but gain the emotional tools needed to thrive.\n<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: 205, 400<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Baptist Health Boca Regional Hospital &#8211; Committed (South Palm Beach &amp; North Broward only),  Hobbs Foundation &#8211; Potential, Boca West &#8211; Potential<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: 12 months &#8211; However, program will be on-going. <br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Palm Beach and Broward Counties<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 5 &#8211; 17<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Ms. <br \/>\nContact First Name: Kellie<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Rentz-Bruneau<br \/>\nContact Title: Grant Writer<br \/>\nContact Phone: 9544616678<br \/>\nContact Email: krentzbruneau@SouthFLFamilyCAREAlliance.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: South Florida Family C.A.R.E.
