Compassionate, trauma-informed services
The children, youth, and families who come to The Village have often experienced significant trauma, including abuse, neglect, violence, and homelessness. For many, accessing help in the past has been challenging or out of reach.
At The Village, we provide in-office, in-home, and virtual mental health services for children and families. For non-intensive clients, we provide services in office or virtually. For intensive clients, we travel all over Los Angeles county to provide in-home, in-office, and virtual services. Our clients are typically referred to us by city and county agencies, children and family courts, hospitals and clinics, schools and surrounding agencies or self-referred. We meet our client where they are: literally and emotionally.
Ensuring that everyone gets the personalized support they need to heal is our top priority. Our multilingual, multicultural clinical team collaborates with each client and their families, when appropriate, to tailor a trauma-informed treatment plan to meet their unique needs.
Together, we work toward a shared goal: helping everyone strengthen their emotional and social well-being so they can live safer, more connected, and more fulfilling lives.

Transforming young lives
We know that when children and young people experience trauma from violence, abuse and neglect, it can have life-long effects.
Studies show the strong relationship between childhood trauma and serious outcomes such as traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, substance use and physical health problems. These problems can be curtailed or prevented when children and youth receive trauma-informed behavioral health services early on.
Last year, our team of multicultural professionals provided vitally needed outpatient services to nearly 600 individuals, many of whom were victims of abuse, neglect, family or community violence. Of those, 69% were under the age of 18.

Life-changing support for adults
Adults who are struggling with trauma, life circumstances, and severe mental health issues are often struggling with their challenges in isolation. It can be frightening and overwhelming.
That’s where our Full-Service Partnership (FSP) comes in, which is a referral-only program. Our experienced clinical team works hand-in-hand to ensure each person receives a full array of services and support they need to live healthy, independent lives: therapy, care management, medication support services, along with help securing housing, employment, education and substance use treatment.
Experts in serving the Latinx and LGBTQ+ Communities
We were founded to fill an urgent need for bilingual, culturally sensitive services for Latinx children and families. Today, we remain fully committed to leading the way in providing a full-spectrum of culturally informed behavioral health services for Latinx children, youth and families.
We’re also leading the way in helping youth who are aging out of foster care, who identify as LGBTQIA+.
We pride ourselves on the individualized care and services we provide to young people. And we were honored to receive The Human Rights Campaign’s All Children All Families seal which recognizes that the agency is well-versed and culturally competent in serving Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer/Questioning (LGBTQ+) clients and LGBTQ+-headed families.
Investing in the Next Generation of Helpers
The Village has a robust Mental Health Intern Training Program that helps us expand our capacity to provide outpatient mental health and wraparound services. This helps address the longstanding shortage of mental health professionals in Los Angeles County.
We attract bachelor’s- and graduate-level mental health students to intern with us, where they gain hands-on experience working with children, youth, adults, and families—many of whom are navigating trauma and systemic barriers. After completing their internships, many are hired as staff!
