Addressing a critical need
Data shows that an increasing number of children and teens suffer from mental health challenges, which is further compounded by a lack of psychiatric beds, residential care facilities, shortages in mental health professionals, and lower-than-average funding.
-
According to a 蒙特利 Peninsula Unified School District student survey, 1 in 6 students considered suicide and 1 in 3 suffered depression-related feelings
-
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an alarming 44 percent of high school students report persistent feelings of sadness and hopelessness, the highest level ever recorded
-
And, mental health emergency visits increased up to 31% in ages 12-17 during the COVID-19 pandemic
-
蒙特利, 圣贝尼托, 圣克鲁斯, and 41 other California counties have no child/adolescent inpatient psychiatric beds, as reported by the California 医院 Association. 在Ohana启动之前, 蒙特利 County youth in crisis had to spend several days in an emergency room, waiting to travel to another county more than 100 miles away for the care they needed
伯蒂的礼物
Bertie Bialek Elliot’s generous, unprecedented $105.800万礼物 to 蒙太奇的健康 Foundation represents the largest donation ever in 蒙特利 County — and one of the most significant philanthropic commitments in healthcare nationwide. A significant portion of her gift was used to build the Ohana campus, grow a robust team of youth mental health professionals, and establish an endowment to provide long-term funding for Ohana’s youth mental health programs.
Additional gifts to Ohana help us grow programs and services for young people in our community today. Join fellow philanthropists like Bertie to transform youth mental health.
