Join the Wait List!

Feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of your purpose? Craving connection, calm, and confidence?

There’s a different way to care for your mental health. It starts with what you love. That’s Social Prescribing — where healing means doing, not just diagnosing.

 

Center for Community Connection (C4CC) offers holistic, farm-based mental health care for Youth (ages 12 to 18) & Young Adults (ages 19 to 26)

JOIN THE WAITLIST to experience C4CC Programs in Fall 2025. Limited spots available for the Fall 2025 Teen Cohort & Young Adult Cohort. Hold your spot (or your child’s spot) today.

Programs for Youth & Young Adults

Intentionally designed for all Youth (ages 12 - 17) and Young Adults (ages 18 to 26), especially those without insurance, those who identify as Black and Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) or LGBTQ+ community.

The C4CC Journey

Youth choose your own path forward with C4CC.

  • Will you start with an OT-based exploration of your strengths and dreams, developing an individualized plan from there?

  • Will you ease into the Farm experience with eco-therapy, horticulture, or other farm activities?

  • Will you engage in C4CC’s teen & young adult workshops (mindfulness, cooking, art, music, yoga, play therapy, more) building relationships with peers and C4CC therapists, coaches and volunteers?

The choice is yours. You take the lead on decisions about your mental health and well-being - with the support and collaboration of C4CC. We help you determine what healing means to you rather than telling you what you need.

Mental Health Care & Social Prescriptions

C4CC’s Journey program starts with an OT-centered exploration of what you love, what you hope for, and your strengths and challenges. Next we offer holistic mental health supports. We work together to define the team that will support you - based on your interests, our therapists’ availability, and the activities you’d like to be involved in.

Then we make a plan for you to receive the support and engagement that works for you - whether weekly therapy, farm experiences, or participation in our creative workshops led by OTs, dietitians, play therapists, nurses, music therapists, health coaches, and others.

Be a part of our next Youth Cohort or our Young Adult Cohort to experience C4CC’s innovative, social prescribing interventions tailored to your interests and needs, and coordinated with families, schools and systems that you are involved to ensure you have comprehensive support.

Therapeutic Workshops, Nature-Inspired Experiences, Special Projects

Integrating the healing power of nature, community, and connection into our therapeutic approach.

  • Therapeutic workshops and eco-therapy to nurture the whole person, cultivate belonging, and address mental, emotional, and social needs.

    In addition, we offer special projects and unique tools like:

  • Food2Mood Advocacy Project empowers young adults to address food insecurity in our local community through advocacy, storytelling, and mental health support.

  • Narrative storytelling using Mi Rialiti (“my reality”), a tool for C4CC participants to tell their unique stories through audio, video, photo and text narratives plus 3D mapping, with the power to reauthor their own life narratives and impact community decision-making.

“…Loneliness [is] as an epidemic on par with tobacco use and obesity... Not only does it undermine physical and mental health, but it underpins many of our more pernicious ills, including violence, addiction and extremism.

The antidote is human connection.”

— Dr. Vivek Murthy, the 21st US Surgeon General
