Supporting young people through community partnerships and programs

Soluna works alongside a growing network of 1,604 partners across California to support young people through trusted, community-based connections.

This includes our Young Adult Ambassadors and Educator Ambassadors, who help shape and share Soluna within their communities, as well as our affiliate network and Family Voices program, which bring together partners, caregivers, and advocates to expand awareness, strengthen engagement, and ensure support reaches young people where they are.

DHCS released its 2025 California Impact Report, highlighting two years of evidence from the state’s first-in-the-nation Behavioral Health Virtual Services program, with Soluna and BrightLife Kids at the center of this work.
