At Partnership for Community Wellness, we know meaningful change happens through collaboration. We are grateful to stand alongside organizations locally and nationally who share our commitment to recovery, mental wellness, harm reduction, and community support.

We are proud to align with partners including Children and Screens, SAMHSA’s Talk. They Hear You. campaign, Stanford’s REACH Lab, The Wild Way, and Song for Charlie. Together, we strengthen our messaging, expand access to trusted resources, reduce stigma, and create clear pathways to hope and healing. When we align around the same goals, we strengthen the entire community. Prevention starts with connection.

Spring Break is almost here ☀️ This year, we’re turning “Less Screen Time, More Family Time” into a fun challenge for families. 📵 The Spring Break Phone Break Challenge

How many screen-free hours can your family log together this week? Try setting aside 1–3 hours each day where everyone puts their phones away and spends time connecting instead.

Ideas for your phone-free time:
• Go outside and explore
• Cook a meal together
• Play games or take a walk
• Have a device-free dinner

At the end of Spring Break, add up your hours and see how much time your family spent truly unplugged and present together. Small breaks from screens can lead to stronger relationships, better conversations, and memories that last far beyond the week.
