OUR MISSION AND COMMITMENT
COLLABORATION & COMMUNITY • ELIMINATING BARRIERS
Full Circle is a state of the art mental health education and training agency that works with families, youth, individuals, organizations, social service agencies, up and coming athletes, artists and business men and women providing mental wellness training and empowerment for peak mental performance and wellness. The agency also provides programs that fight against the stigma and shame associated with mental health while offering strategies for increasing access to quality mental health services. In particular, the agency has a commitment to helping today’s young female athletes prepare for their sports through targeted and focused mental health peak performance programming that helps them with their self esteem, self- awareness and confidence through mental health awareness support. The Full Circle’s style is culturally sensitive, informative, interactive and trainees take away implementable skills to help empower, encourage and change.
By collaborating with our community partners, social service agencies, educators and those committed to social and healing justice, the Center is able to educate and train organizations, healthcare providers, first-responders, and vulnerable families how to become more mentally resilient and adept at supporting those they serve through awareness, education, and training.
Full Circle is dedicated to increasing access to quality mental health care and services, through culturally competent, spiritually sensitive training programs, courses, and resources for agencies and organizations supporting children, individuals, and families living with mental illness issues, in the urban context. A major focus is education programs on overall mental wellness, eliminating suicide and stamping out the stigma and shame associated with addressing mental health and emotional trauma in underserved children and low -income families.
The center also encourages the use of the outdoors, and creating and taking advantage of healthy, therapeutic, naturic environments, as a way to obtain and maintain mental wellness through outdoor spaces. Through a daily practice of active outdoor activities, we are a commitment to mindset shifting by empowering and building stronger communities to “ stamp out stigma“ through walking off the shame associated with mental health.
OUR PROGRAMS
Our training programs are evidenced based, state of the art courses, webinars, and workshops, designed by licensed mental health professionals at the top of their field. The Center aims to help further the training of social workers, lay counselors and mental health counseling professionals, who work clinically and administratively to help make a difference in the lives of those they serve and support.
With more concerns about mental health during “pandemic and traumatic times”, mental health awareness education and training has become even more important. Our programs encourage trainees from the mental health field and families dealing with mental illness– to educate themselves from ” fear to faith” as they embrace new knowledge that can help them pass on “hope” and a mindset for “social and healing justice”. Mental wellness is foundational to all wellness and the stigma and shame must not stop access to quality care and psycho-education.
