In California, more than 284,000 children are living with major depression and too many are still not getting the care they need. Behind every number is a child, a family, a story. Early support and access to treatment can change the path forward. At Five Acres, we see what’s possible when care meets compassion, and through our Wear Your Heart initiative we’re committed to making sure no child has to face this alone.
