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.

You can make a difference!

$50 – Buys a backpack and school supplies
$100 – Pays for an hour of art or music therapy, or a bus pass
$500 – Sends a child to summer camp or helps an unhoused adult stock their new home with basic needs
$1,000 – Three to six weeks of counseling for individuals in recovery from substance use

How Your Gift Makes an Impact

You may designate whether your gift supports Pacific Clinics’ General Fund, the We CARE Fund, or you can designate your gift to be directed to any of our programs (e.g., housing supports, alcohol/drug prevention, neurodevelopmental services).

General Fund

By giving to the General Fund, your gift goes towards supporting all our programs and services, including mental health treatment and supportive services.

Employee Assistance Fund

The Employee Assistance Fund provides financial help to Pacific Clinics employees impacted by natural disasters and other life-altering events.

Pacific Clinics Head Start Assistance Fund

The Pacific Clinics Head Start Assistance Fund provides financial help to both Pacific Clinics Head Start program employees and clients impacted by natural disasters and other life-altering events.

We CARE Fund

Pacific Clinics established the Client Assistance and Resources for Emergencies (We CARE Fund) to provide emergency resources for adults, youth and children in our care who are low-income and unhoused. The We CARE Fund also provides financial support in case of unforeseen or extraordinary life events.

Housing Services

Pacific Clinics’ Housing Services helps individuals and families who are unhoused. We work to secure a safe place for them to live and help rebuild their lives by providing emergency, transitional and permanent supportive housing. Permanent housing is provided through the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (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 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 clients 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.

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.

Thank You for All You Do To Help Children and Families!

Make a lasting impact for children in crisis and their families through a planned gift to Pacific Clinics.

Include Pacific Clinics in Your Will
The easiest and most common way to create a lasting legacy is by including Pacific Clinics in your will. By asking your attorney to revise your will or add a simple amendment, you can make a charitable bequest of a dollar amount, specific property, a percentage of your estate or what remains after providing for your heirs.

An example amendment to your will: “I give (dollar amount or percentage of estate) to Pacific Clinics [Tax ID #94-2295953], a California non-profit corporation, to be used for its exempt purposes.”

Pacific Clinics recommends consulting with an attorney when you make or modify a will.

Designate Part of Your Retirement Fund to Pacific Clinics After Your Lifetime
If you are planning to leave the funds remaining in your retirement plan after your lifetime to someone other than your spouse, much of the money may be lost to taxes. Naming a charity as the beneficiary of your retirement plan can help shield your retirement assets from heavy taxation.

To name Pacific Clinics as a beneficiary of your 401(k), 403(b), IRA or other retirement plan, please advise your plan administrator to designate your gift to:

Pacific Clinics
Tax ID #94-2295953
499 Loma Alta Avenue
Los Gatos, CA 95030

If you are considering naming Pacific Clinics as a beneficiary of your retirement plan, please consult your tax advisor or attorney for full advice on the effect of your gift.

Designate Part of your Life Insurance to Pacific Clinics After Your Lifetime
One of the simplest ways to make a significant gift in the future is to name Pacific Clinics as beneficiary to receive all or a portion of the proceeds of a policy which is no longer needed for family protection.
