UCLA Health recently reported that the suicide rate is highest among teens and young adults. The New York Times and other media outlets reported on a recent disturbing trend; most mass shooting assailants are under 21. Something needs to be done and soon! On Saturday, July 16th, 2022 6,000 post pandemic graduates from local colleges and the foster care system will come together to be CELEBRATED, ENCOURGAGED and SUPPORTED by the Los Angeles Mental Health and music community. Recognizing that inner-city communities are significantly underserved by institutional health care delivery systems, Dion Rambo founded the innovative TeleHealth Van concept. The TeleHealth Van delivers virtual mental health and shelter services directly to clients and patients most at risk. We are celebrating our 2 year anniversary and we have had over 15,000 sessions.
