We did it! Our 2nd Annual Su***de Prevention Walk is in the books!
What a beautiful morning filled with connection, community, hope, and heart!
Raising awareness about su***de prevention is just one of the many important things we do at VYS, but today was a powerful reminder that our presence matters, our voices matter, and our commitment to prevention matters. Every conversation, every step, and every person who shows up helps remind our community that no one has to walk alone.

A HUGE shoutout to the VUSD EHRMS Team for joining us this morning! Your support, encouragement, and positive energy were felt every step of the way—just like the incredible collaboration and partnership you consistently bring to the work we do together.

School is in full swing! Last week, we held our FIRST Annual Backpack Drive for our families and community, and what a wonderful day it was.

We were excited to provide 150+ backpacks and school supplies to help children head into the new school year feeling prepared and supported. We also loved having the opportunity to connect with families, introduce them to our group facilitators, and share more about the groups and resources available at our clinic throughout the year.

As a children’s mental health clinic, we know that feeling supported, connected, and cared for can make a big difference, especially during times of transition like the start of a new school year. 💙 Seeing all the smiles and excitement reminded us just how meaningful community support can be.

Here’s to a school year full of growth, connection, confidence, and plenty of reasons to smile! 📚✨ Best of luck to all the students heading back to school, we’re rooting for you! 🍎

P.S. A special thank-you to Kaweah Health’s Crisis Stabilization Unit for joining us and sharing with families about the amazing crisis support and resources available right here in our community. We’re grateful for partners who help make sure families know they’re not alone when they need support. 💙

Come see it all in action! Join us on Wednesday, May 13th, 2026 as we open our doors to our amazing community members and partners for a day filled with fun, festivities, and free food. You won’t want to miss it!

Spring is in full bloom, and so is our gratitude 💐💛

We want to send a HUGE shoutout to the BLVD Cruisers Central Valley for rolling in with 100+ baskets for the incredible youth we serve! Even a couple weeks later, we’re still smiling thinking about the joy on the faces of children and teens as they received them—so many smiles, so much excitement!

Moments like these remind us that when a community comes together, we can make therapy feel fun, welcoming, and full of connection—while continuing to break the stigma around mental health.

And guess what? This isn’t the last you’ll see of the BLVD Cruisers 👀 Catch them (and many of our awesome community partners) at our Annual Open House on May 13th… more fun details coming soon!

🎃👻 It may be spooky season, but there’s nothing scary at VYS! 👻🎃

This week we hosted our 2nd Annual Halloween Event, and it was a spooktacular success! 🕸️✨ The VYS teams let their creativity shine—bringing to life everything from the Land of Far Far Away, to the World of Pixar, Illumination Studios, some magical witches, and even a blast from the past!

We loved opening our doors to the children, teens, parents, and caregivers we serve. Families arrived in costume, joined in games, and of course enjoyed plenty of sweet treats! 🍭🎨💫

At VYS, we know that mental health care is more than therapy sessions—it’s about building connection, joy, and belonging. Events like this help strengthen those positive relationships and give children and families a chance to relax, express themselves, and simply have fun together. 🧠💜

A huge thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this event so special. Seeing the laughter, smiles, and excitement reminded us just how powerful community and creativity can be in supporting mental well-being. 💜🧡💚

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, and today, we walked with purpose. 💛
At VYS, one of our core missions is to support those in need and take action to prevent su***de. In recognition of World Su***de Prevention Day (September 10), our team came together to participate in the NAMI Su***de Awareness Run—a 5K walk through the heart of Visalia.

Fueled by coffee, compassion, and our commitment to mental health, we walked in solidarity for those affected by su***de and to raise awareness for the importance of prevention and support.

💚 If you or someone you know is struggling, you're not alone. Help is always available.
📞 National 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline – Call or text 988 for free, confidential support 24/7.
📞 VYS Youth Crisis & Mental Health Services – Call us at 559-627-1490 for local support and resources.

Together, we’re stronger. Together, we can make a difference.

🎉 Spirit Week at Visalia Youth Services! 🎉

As we gear up to support our amazing kiddos heading back to school, our team at Visalia Youth Services got into the spirit—literally! 🚌📚✨

Last week, we celebrated Spirit Week to energize our staff, build connection, and get everyone excited for the new school year ahead. It was a week full of creativity, laughter, and team bonding, featuring some fun and festive dress-up days:

🏈 Sports Day – We kicked things off repping our favorite teams and showing off our competitive spirit!
👯‍♀️ Twin Day – Staff paired up in matching outfits—double the fun, double the smiles!
🐭 Disney Day – From Mickey ears to princess crowns, we embraced the magic of childhood.
🎩 Crazy Hair & Hat Day – We closed out the week with wild hairstyles and the most outrageous hats we could find!

It was a fun and meaningful way to reconnect as a team and get excited for the important work we do every day. We’re ready and recharged to continue providing compassionate care and support for our youth this school year. 💙
