“Mental health is not a luxury. We can’t afford to look at it as a luxury. We have to look at how it’s baked into every single piece of what a person experiences, and how that affects how they’re able to learn, how they’re able to be at work, how they’re able to be in community. That’s why I really believe what we’re doing is necessary because we’re bringing that piece back [to the] front and center into what’s happening to [our] communities.” -Dr. Deidra Somerville Learn more about how our mental health branch programs, such as our Pacifica Youth Services Bureau and its partnership with Pacificans Care, are centering mental health and bringing more awareness to our Peninsula communities.
