Every child regardless of their background, upbringing, or socioeconomic status should have an equal opportunity to participate in the occupational landscape of our future. Our mission is to provide skill set development as well as educational and mental health support to children in underserved communities. Identifying children in foster care as an underserved community, we cater to the needs of children in their process of transitioning out of foster care.

Adolescents face a range of developmental issues, and as teens approaching adulthood, living independently becomes a significant goal. While youth with intact families may struggle to achieve self-reliance, youth in out-of-home care face formidable obstacles. We can help guide you through the transition.
Supporting students in their education is a core activity of Project healthy minds. Like so many other aspects of the society, the pandemic has worsened inequities in education. We breakdown barriers that prevent young, underserved students from achieving education and career success.
Our counselors will help you build your resilience by tapping into your hidden strengths. We work collaboratively with you to create new coping techniques and strategies.
