…Drugs were my only relief and gang life was my only protection.  When Southern California Counseling Center found me, my life changed forever.

My counselor never judged me. She knew what life in the streets was like and believed in me. We got my kids back. Now my family and I are together and thriving. Not only did I find mental health care that I could afford but I found a place to finally call home.

Currently, I’m training to become a counselor at SCCC to help others who are experiencing trauma. I’m so grateful that this organization gave me a second chance at life and I’m going to make the best out of it.”

We believe that mental health care is a right, not a privilege. That’s why we do what few counseling centers can: provide unlimited access to counseling on a sliding scale basis (based on your financial need).

Our agility is our strength!

As a small but mighty non-profit, we are evolving in the way we deliver our important services. Our newly adopted model post-pandemic, allows us the flexibility to accept client fees (a sliding scale) or to accept our client’s insurance/MediCal.

As you can imagine, client fees alone cannot cover all of our operating expense.  We rely on individual donors and foundation support to help close the funding gap.

We cannot do this without your support. Won’t you consider supporting us today?
