YDD and our partners @sunbeamsla , experts in youth development and mental health, hosted a YouthSource center staff training this morning! Our team members gained valuable insights and better strategies for youth engagement and retention, with a strong focus on mental health and trauma-informed care.
Thank you to all who attended and who work everyday to help uplift our youth! A special thanks to the @hiltonfoundation for their continued support of our programs and core youth-development work.

🌍✨ Happy Earth Day from Sunbeams & Nature Deserves Kindness! ✨🌱
We’re thrilled to introduce Nature Deserves Kindness — a new partner company of Sunbeams ☀️
This Earth Day, we want to highlight our Mobile Nature Centers — interactive carts-on-wheels that bring nature-based learning directly to schools, neighborhoods, and community spaces.
Through interactive workshops, sensory play, science, and art — we invite youth and families to explore the outdoors, deepen their relationship with nature, and practice leaving it better than we found it. Follow us for updates and stay tuned for upcoming partnerships. 🌱
🎨🌼 Spring Break Acitivites with our friends @socalcrossroads in Lynwood. 🌼🎨Youth repurposed cardboard boxes to make art pieces and add their creative touches. #artinthepark #create #everyonedeserveskindness #springbreak
