In March 2022, the Tri-City Mental Health Governing Board approved to accept two grants totaling $4,020,932 awarded by the State of California. The Crisis Care Mobile Units (CCMU) and Mental Health Student Services Act (MHSSA) grants will expand behavioral and mental health services for youth and young adults ages 0 to 25 in the cities of Claremont, Pomona, and La Verne.
We invite youth and young adults ages 25 and younger in the cities of Pomona, Claremont and La Verne, along with everyone who supports their well-being to participate in an important conversation and help shape the future of mental health services in our community. Your feedback can help design a more effective approach to youth-focused crisis intervention and mental health services that reflect the distinct cultural features, experiences and realites of our communities.
The following is the schedule of stakeholder sessions, along with Zoom registration links. Please choose one session to participate in. Live interpretation services will be available in both Spanish and Vietnamese.
High School and Middle School Students
A parent or legal guardian must join youth under age 18. Counselors will be available during the sessions if mental health support is needed.
