Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. Since 1992, World Mental Health Day has been observed each year to raise awareness about the importance of mental well-being for all people, regardless of background or circumstances, and highlighting the global need for awareness, access to care, and reducing stigma. At ChildSavers, we are committed to providing mental health and child development services to children and caregivers. If you are looking for mental health support for your child, please visit childsavers.org. We're here to help.

New 🎬 Project Alert! We had the amazing opportunity to create this film for ChildSavers in honor of their 100 years of amazing service! 100 years of service, impact, and transformation is nothing short of a miracle. But for ChildSavers it is all in a day's work for them. They have been faithfully providing mental health services for children and training for childcare providers in Richmond and beyond. How can you summarize 100 years of service in a short video? That is what we were hired to do. We also wanted to create a clear picture of the vast service that ChildSavers provides. It was an honor to interview people like L. Robert Bolling for this video. If you know Robert, you know how personal this work is to him. Please watch this and be on the lookout for our latest podcast where we sat down with the ChildSavers team to talk about all that went into this successful film. #videoproduction #videomarketing #rva #storytelling

Special thank you to our friends at Bank of America who came by and dropped off a huge donation of snacks, art supplies, and books for our Immediate Response program's Feel Better Bags! These bags are used by clinicians to provide soothing activities to children and teens who have experienced trauma. These bags are filled with therapeutic toys or art supplies to help support clients during critical moments. Bank of America is helping drive our mission forward in Richmond. We’re grateful to receive the bank’s support to empower us to continue helping the community!

Much of our work is made possible through partnership and generous investments from community foundations, such as the Richmond Memorial Health Foundation (RMHF). RMHF recently interviewed our CEO, L. Robert Bolling, as a part of their partner spotlight to highlight the work we've done over the last 100 years, and where we are heading for another 100. Thank you to RMHF for your continued support!
