Edgewood offers innovative mental health, family support, and education services that provide vital assistance to at-risk youth and families in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Many of the youth we serve have experienced severe abuse, neglect, or trauma. Our programs focus on helping youth heal from trauma and on creating a positive and supportive environment for them to do so. Visit our website to learn more about or programs and services: www.edgewood.org.
Every holiday season we host a holiday drive to ensure that every youth we serve has something under the tree. This year, we are needing support with gift wrapping for gifts for youth in our residentially-based programs.
Come spread some holiday cheer on 12/23/19! Shifts available between 8am-2pm.
Contact Keri Kirby @ KeriK@edgewood.org for more information!
