About
Creative Wellbeing is a strategic collaboration between the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture, Office of Child Protection (OCP), Department of Mental Health (DMH), and Arts for Healing and Justice Network (AHJN).
Creative Wellbeing has been developed as an approach for building communities of wellness for system-impacted youth, those at-risk of becoming system-impacted, and the adults who support them. The model offers non-traditional strategies for promoting mental health and wellness that include culturally relevant, healing-centered, arts-based workshops for youth, as well as professional development, coaching, and emotional support for adults.
