About us
Wellnest (formerly known as Los Angeles Child Guidance Clinic) has been a Los Angeles mainstay for more than nine decades. Since 1924, we have empowered children and young adults to get on the track to success, reach goals in school, build healthy relationships, and enjoy emotional well-being. Wellnest has both a local and national reputation for its leadership in establishing and implementing innovative service delivery models resulting in positive outcomes for children, their families, and communities. Children are surrounded by trauma and pitfalls. This is your opportunity to equip them with the tools they need to thrive and make a difference.

On Thursday September 12th , to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month, AltaMed, City Club and Wellnest partnered to bring a curated art exhibit of the AltaMed Art Collection, one of the largest Chicano art collections in the world. This collection captures the essence of Latino culture through powerful and thought-provoking art. Thank you to the generosity of Cástulo de la Rocha and Zoila Escobar of AltaMed and its Foundation for loaning the unique artwork for the exhibit. Proceeds from ticket sales for the event benefited the University of California Santa Barbara - Ismael “Mayo” de la Rocha Scholarship Fund, ensuring the spirit of Professor de la Rocha will remain ever present! #Wellnest #AltaMedArtCollection #CityClubLA #HispanicHeritageMonth #UCSB UC Santa Barbara
