DEAR FRIENDS OF KYCC, OUR MISSION Despite great efforts in outreach and education, there still remains a huge stigma in the Koreatown community in receiving mental health services. The majority of our neighborhood’s population is Mexican, Central American and Korean, and the reasons for difficulty in seeking counseling services are manifold, starting with cultural and linguistic barriers. KYCC (Koreatown Youth and Community The mission of KYCC is to serve the evolving Center) was established in 1975 to support needs of the Korean American population in Stigma is embedded in our community because mental health is tied to the family. Many believe that if a growing population of at-risk youth in the greater area as well as the someone in the family is suffering from a mental health issue, it should remain a private matter. Families tend to avoid or hide these conditions until they become severe and can no longer be handled without Los Angeles. Today, KYCC is the leading multiethnic Koreatown community. KYCC’s professional help. Clinicians refer to this as a “crisis point”— and at this late juncture, intervention and multiservice organization in Koreatown, programs and services are directed toward counseling becomes much more difficult. supporting children and their families in recently immigrated, economically disad- the areas of education, health, housing, vantaged youth and families, and promote Sixty-eight percent of Koreatown residents are foreign born. Mental health social services, if even offered in their home countries, can be vastly different from what we offer in the U.S. It can be very community beautification and finances. community socioeconomic empowerment. daunting for those families—many of whom are not fluent in English—to navigate ways to receive help. KYCC is committed to making Koreatown a safe and beautiful place to live and work. KYCC has provided counseling services since 1979. Today, our Clinical Services has 19 staff members—13 of whom are Master’s-level clinicians. All of our counselors are bilingual in Korean or Spanish—our cultural and linguistic competence is the hallmark of our program.

This year, KYCC launched a community-wide trilingual mental health awareness campaign. #KYCCCAN- HELP was comprised of two large-scale mural projects and a poster campaign in Koreatown. This project was made possible through funding by the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health and the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, and by our cross- community collaborations with our past and present KYCC clients, schools and local business partners.

Our trilingual tagline—“It’s okay to reach out,” “Extiende la mano y busca ayuda,” and “손을 잡으 세요”—underscores the importance of talking about and seeking assistance for any mental health condition, large or small.

At KYCC, we believe that the health of the community starts in the family. We are also increasing our focus on prevention. Our multiservice agency offers over two dozen programs that promote education, self-care, family bonding, financial independence, substance use education, community beautification and activism. By strengthening children, families and our community before crises balloon, we deter the escalation of greater mental health, domestic and social issues through early intervention and proper referrals to our network of providers.

Our mission has always been to serve the evolving needs of our Koreatown community. As the importance of mental health of our children and families becomes more and more apparent, we are committed to providing access to the education and services needed to transform the health and stability of our residents.

Sincerely,

JOHNG HO SONG JONG LIMB 4 Executive Director Board President KYCC OPENS OUR AGENCY VINTAGE
