Supporting At-Risk Youth and Strengthening Families Through Healing Hearts’ Empowerment Programs
The program discusses the nonprofit organization Healing Hearts, which supports at-risk youth, including homeless youth, sex trafficking victims, and the homeless community. Founded in 2017 by Yolanda, the organization provides a curriculum called "Your Story Matters," focusing on self-harm, stress management, and personal growth. Yolanda shares her personal story of discovering her daughter's self-harm and the subsequent establishment of Healing Hearts. Angelica, a newcomer to Nevada, joins the organization to help others, emphasizing the importance of addressing emotional issues within the Latino community. The program also touches on the impact of COVID-19 on family dynamics and the need for personal touch in addressing youth mental health.
