THE 2023 HEROES OF HYC

Helpline Youth Counseling's "Heroes of HYC" honors outstanding thought leaders who impact our community through service, support, and charity. All event proceeds raised will support HYC's services improving the quality of life for low-income, at-risk children and youth and their family members in Southeast Los Angeles County and Long Beach, including behavioral health (mental health and substance use disorder) counseling, child abuse prevention and intervention, domestic violence education and counseling, and youth leadership development.
