Today, we’re celebrating Bryson, one of our current participants, on his high school graduation! 🎓✨

This milestone represents years of hard work, determination, and growth, and the Hanna Center team was proud to be there cheering him on as he crossed the stage and celebrated this achievement.

At Hanna Center, we believe every young person deserves a community that shows up, encourages them, and celebrates their successes. Moments like this remind us why that support matters.

Every shared story, resource, and conversation helps reduce stigma and keep our community connected to care and support here in Sonoma Valley.

Mental health care can begin with one important shift: meeting students where they are.

In her latest article for Mental Health Awareness Month, Evelynn Hernandez-Brown, LMFT, Hanna Center Clinical Director, explores how school-based mental health services can help students feel less alone, make sense of what they are carrying, and connect to additional support when needed.

At Hanna Center, we believe access is not just about whether care exists. It is also about whether young people can reach it in a setting where trust and consistency already live.

Last week, Hanna Academy graduating seniors gathered with staff for our annual senior dinner tradition.

It was a meaningful evening to celebrate this milestone, share a meal, and honor the students as they prepare for what comes next. We’re proud of each of our seniors and grateful for the staff who continue to walk alongside them with care, encouragement, and support.

Thank you to Lococo's Cucina Rustica for hosting us and helping make the evening feel so special.

Congratulations, graduates! We’re cheering you on!

Last week, Hanna Center welcomed providers, educators, advocates, families, and community members for our Early Psychosis Community Forum.

Together, we explored the importance of early intervention, reducing stigma, and building stronger pathways to care for young people and families experiencing early signs of psychosis.

A special thank you to our guest speaker, Tara Niendam, Ph.D., Director for the UC Davis EPI-CAL Network, for sharing her expertise and insight with our community. We are also grateful to Aldea’s team for partnering on the panel and bringing their experience, perspective, and care into the conversation.

At Hanna Center, we believe mental health care must be community-centered, accessible, and rooted in partnership. Through Hanna Ahead, we are continuing this work by supporting young people and families with early intervention resources when they matter most.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this conversation thoughtful, engaging, and impactful.
