Casa Pacifica

As the largest nonprofit provider of children’s mental health services in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties, Casa Pacifica provides therapeutic services to hundreds of vulnerable children and youth every year through mental and behavioral health care, education, and family support. Last year alone we served almost 2,100 youth, both on campus and in the community, through our 14 therapeutic programs and services designed to promote healing and foster hope. Each year we must raise 13% of our budget through fundraising activities, donations, and grant awards to fill the gap between the actual cost of running our programs and services and the revenues garnered through government service contracts. This year the amount required is $3.8 million to fill that gap. Events like the annual Festival help ensure we can continue to provide for vulnerable children and youth in our communities. All proceeds from the Wine, Food & Brew Festival benefit programs that serve the children and families of Casa Pacifica
