BrightLife Kids is for any family living in California with kids 0-12 years old. Parents and caregivers can turn to BrightLife Kids for peer support and expert advice on how to handle behavioral challenges while teaching resilience, problem-solving, and communication. Kids benefit from resources and coaching that teach them how to manage worries, how to express big feelings like sadness, anger, or frustration in healthy ways, and how to navigate complicated or confusing social situations.

We are moving Long Beach Forward.

VISION

Race and income do not determine one’s future in Long Beach--it’s a community where everyone is safe, connected, and healthy.

MISSION

To create a healthy Long Beach with low-income communities of color by building community knowledge, leadership, and power.

​VALUES

Fairness: We work with groups often not invited to the table to ensure their voices are heard, they can lead change, and our democracy is strengthened. Opportunity and participation in political processes should not be constrained by income and race.

Collaboration: We are stronger together and building relationships among diverse residents, organizations, and decision makers is key to achieving our vision of a healthier Long Beach.

Connection: We create a space for people to come together and be part of a community of like-minded people facing similar challenges and working toward a common goal.

Change: We transform how business is done and decisions are made by addressing root causes and supporting those most affected to lead the charge. We seek long-lasting change today.

Integrity: We support low-income communities of color to bring about change and we are committed and accountable to help push this change forward. We walk the walk and are constantly evolving to better meet the needs of our communities.
