The Westside Ajani Program is a comprehensive, multi-service behavioral health initiative designed to build emotional wellness in children, youth, and families living in low-income communities. Grounded in a systems-based treatment model, the program brings together a multidisciplinary team of licensed clinicians, registered associates, educators, and early childhood specialists to evaluate and support children and families from multiple perspectives — spanning case management, psychopharmacological care, and psychotherapeutic intervention.
Westside Ajani provides both clinic-based and community-based services, including outpatient mental health treatment, school-based mental health services, consultation, and outreach. A defining strength of the program is its capacity to meet children and youth where they are — in schools, childcare centers, community centers, recreation centers, and group homes. The program maintains referral linkages with mental health providers, probation, health services, the Department of Human Services, and other community partners to ensure families receive coordinated, accessible care.
At its core, Westside Ajani works to help families understand healthy family dynamics, build community responsibility, and address the compounding impacts of mental illness and structural racism on family well-being.
