Wellness in Action (Center for Empowering Refugees and Immigrants)

Wellness in Action is a community workforce training and development program for paraprofessional community mental health advocates from unserved and underserved refugee and new immigrant communities in the Bay Area. We offer mini-grant funding, technical assistance to plan and implement funded projects, professional skills trainings and clinical consultation. Wellness in Action also works with government agencies and community-based organizations to develop career paths and pipelines in the public behavioral/mental health field that are relevant for refugee and new immigrant communities.
