Janelle Buccat, MS, OTR/L and Meta Bodewes, LCSW showed up to the James Denman Middle School Carnival with a hands-on game of giant Tetris, joining students, school clubs, and other community-based organizations for a day of games, activities, and wellness.

Students spent "Denman Pride" tickets they earned from teachers for demonstrating healthy choices, responsibility, and positive character at school, celebrating with everything from smoothies powered by a bike blender to a board of healthy summer habits.

Two OTTP clients walked across the stage this spring, and we couldn't be more proud.

One spent over a year working toward his driver's license, navigating setbacks and starting the process over more than once. He didn't give up.

The other was struggling with school attendance and managing a work schedule that was taking a toll on his sleep. With some support and consistency, he earned a district-wide scholarship.

Carrissia Keeling, OTD, OTR/L was there to celebrate both of them at graduation.

This is what consistent support can create.

This Pride Month, we're sharing what affirming care actually looks like in occupational therapy.

LGBTQ+ youth deserve support that sees them fully, meets them where they are, and never asks them to justify who they are in order to receive care.

Swipe to learn how OTs show up for LGBTQ+ youth, every day.

💜 Save this if you work with youth. Share it if you believe every young person deserves affirming care.

Mental health isn't about feeling calm all the time. It's about understanding your emotions and having the tools to manage them.

That's exactly what the Zones of Regulation teaches young people to do.

Developed by an occupational therapist, the Zones of Regulation gives youth a shared language to identify how they're feeling, and a toolkit of strategies to help them navigate whatever zone they're in.

Swipe to learn about each zone and try some of the hands-on activities our OTs use with youth every day.

As we close out Mental Health Awareness Month, we're reminded that real mental health support isn't one-size-fits-all. It's practical. It's hands-on. And it starts with helping young people understand themselves.

From the kitchen to everyday life.

At OTTP-NorCal's Oakland building, Licensed Occupational Therapist Alicia Maness has been leading a cooking class for students through the Alameda County Office of Education, and it's about so much more than learning to cook.

Each session focuses on simple, accessible meal preparation while incorporating life skills that extend far beyond the kitchen: decision-making, sequencing, collaboration, and organization. Youth also learn about the connection between nutrition and overall wellness, because what we put into our bodies has a direct impact on our mental health.

This is what healing through doing looks like. One meal, one session, one skill at a time.

Have you ever asked yourself: How does my donation to OTTP actually make a difference?

The truth is, every gift, no matter the size, has the potential to create real, tangible change in a young person's life. From sensory supplies that help a child regulate their emotions, to a transit pass that gets them to therapy, to a classroom sensory space that supports an entire school, your generosity reaches further than you might think.

Over the past few weeks, Alicia Maness, Licensed Occupational Therapist, has been hosting a cooking class for students through the Alameda County Office of Education at OTTP-NorCal's Oakland building.

This hands-on opportunity focuses on simple meal preparation, helping youth learn how to create balanced, healthy meals and snacks using accessible ingredients, tools, and kitchen appliances. Each session also includes psychoeducation on the connection between nutrition and overall wellness.

Alongside cooking skills, the group builds opportunities to practice decision-making, sequencing, collaboration, and organization, skills that carry into everyday life beyond the kitchen.

OTTP-NorCal hosted our Youth Empowerment Benefit Concert on Thursday, April 9, at the Fourth Bore Taproom & Grill in Orinda. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised over $50k to directly support the youth we serve.

Donors, sponsors, longtime supporters, and new community members all came together for an unforgettable evening featuring live performances from Brothers Coane, delicious drinks and appetizers, and an exciting live auction. The energy in the room was incredible, and we’re so grateful to everyone who showed up to support youth mental health and OTTP’s mission.

OTTP-NorCal joined the San Francisco Giants pregame reception, Unifying Mental Health Advocacy, bringing together community leaders and organizations committed to advancing mental health awareness.

Through the “Meet the Movement” segment, guests connected with nonprofit partners providing services, resources, and ongoing support for mental health in our community. OTTP-NorCal was amongst many other organizations, including Born This Way Foundation, NAMI San Francisco, Men's X Mental, Inc.

We also heard from Pam Baer, a leading philanthropist and mental health advocate, as well as Drew Robinson, who shared his powerful story of surviving a su***de attempt and using that experience to reduce stigma, especially for men, and encourage others to seek support. Hearing from both community leaders and individuals with lived experience was a powerful reminder of the importance and impact of OTTP-NorCal’s work.

Sarah Hui, OTD, OTR/L, Vocational Services Manager, had the honor of delivering the game ball to the pitcher’s mound and several OTTP staff members enjoyed a special evening at the ballpark representing our organization.

Thank you to the Giants for this meaningful opportunity to uplift mental health awareness and continue the conversation during Mental Health Awareness Month.
