Community Based Programs
Able Works
Able Works equips individuals with financial education, life skills and assets that enable one to live free from oppression and poverty.
Police Activities League
San Mateo PAL’s Family Support, Education & Mental Wellness program embeds mental health services into the San Mateo Police Activities League programming.
They create an easy transition for recipients to receive mental health services, linkages to community services, and connection to psycho-education.
Music & Memory
One Life pairs seniors with dementia with teens and creates customized iPods together. Seniors take a step back in time and the music unlocks memories of their past and they share the experience with teens.
Art Speak
ArtSpeak was developed to help teens and adults explore the fundamental connection between art and the healing process through the use and application of art therapy. Art therapy is a non-traditional, self-expressive and creative way to explore life's challenges and develop self awareness. Our goal is to inform the community around the benefits of art and to minimize the stigma around teen mental illness. Our teens need support and ArtSpeak is dedicated to empower and help encourage teens throughout their journey in life.
Poetry Night
Community poetry nights are held monthly to help engage the community in emotional depth themes and work on self growth.

We have trained at Young Men's Service League, National Charity League, Hope House, Menlo Park Church, Peninsula Covenant Church, and Police Activities League. Our team has a breadth of expertise from parenting, Relationships and dating, trauma and the brain, healthy eating, body image issues, and digital overuse.
