Supporting Mental Health in our community
We care about the health of our patients, far beyond the walls of our hospital. We are an essential access point to an extensive range of services and a bridge that links our patients to partners and services that meet the complex layers of need within the community.
In honor of World Mental Health Day tomorrow, we want to let you know about the many ways we support the mental health and well-being of our patients and community. Partner with us today by making a donation to support California Hospital’s work.

Cultural Trauma & Mental Health Resiliency Project
This project is a joint effort among Dignity Health’s six Southern California hospitals, including CHMC, to increase the awareness, skills, and capacity of local community organizations and members to identify mental distress, address the impacts of trauma, reduce stigma, and increase resiliency through the delivery of mental health awareness education.
The project focuses on children and youth of color and the adults who care for them, with an emphasis on areas with high health disparities such as poverty, racism, adverse childhood experiences, and violence.
