Educational Programs
Educational Programs provide students with the skills they need to live successful lives. Our robust programs include early childhood development, classroom consultations in partnership with school districts, adult continuing education programs and parent workshops.
Support Services

Support Services offer various programs to address social determinants of health, including housing and employment coaching and placement, among other critically needed services.

Behavioral health services can significantly help those in need. However, until basic needs are met, there will be no improvement for the clients we serve. Meeting those immediate needs requires generous support from people like you.

Eighty-five percent of your donation goes to help children, youth, adults and families in your community. Your tax-deductible donation pays for necessities like food, rent, a bed with clean sheets, shoes that fit and bus passes, plus gifts that our clients do not take for granted.

Housing Services

Pacific Clinics' Housing Services helps the individuals and families who are unhoused. We work to secure a safe place to live and help rebuild their lives by providing emergency, transitional and permanent supportive housing. Permanent housing is provided through HUD Homeless Section 8 and Shelter Plus Care programs.
Our Housing Services Department currently manages all transitional housing through leases at properties in the community for foster care transitional age youth and adults. We also collaborate with motels, property management companies and private landlords for additional housing needs.
Once they are approved for housing, some consumers require further assistance, including making their security deposits or obtaining household items to ease their transition to a new life. We provide monetary assistance, as well as money management and vocational services designed to help them develop the skills and strengths essential to achieving their personal goals.

Thank you for all you do to help children, adults and families!

Pacific Clinics is a 501(c)(3); your donation is tax deductible. To help a child throughout the year, please consider making a recurring gift through easy, monthly installments posted directly from your credit card or bank account.

Elena’s Path to Recovery

Elena grew up a bright-eyed and happy young girl, but when she turned 15, she began suffering from severe depression. As the shadow of depression took hold, her life at school became a stark portrait of withdrawal and pain. 

Depression affected every aspect of her life: her behavior, academics and relationships. Her parents felt helpless and like they had nowhere to turn.

Their lifeline eventually came in the form of a brochure for Pacific Clinics, which Elena’s art teacher slid across her desk one day after class. Through counseling and group therapy under the guidance of caring professionals at Pacific Clinics, Elena now reports that she has begun to feel like herself again.

She re-engaged with volleyball, art and friendships, each day brighter than the last, her hope renewed and her path forward clear. Through the collective efforts at Pacific Clinics, stories like Elena’s are rewritten with brighter outcomes — 71% of children in their care have flourished in family life, school and social engagement, an achievement made possible by your contributions.
