Community Partners

Neighborhood Spotlight Series

We invite community partners, Los Angeles County agencies, and others to join our monthly staff meetings to raise awareness of local resources, and to foster opportunities for connection and collaboration between DHS and our community partners.

Books for Baby Bears

We partner with the Book Foundation to promote healthy language development and early literacy by providing children with age-appropriate and stimulating books at routine well-child visits at High Desert Regional Health Center.

ACEs Aware Network of Care Grant Participant

In January 2021, the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) in partnership with the Office of the California Surgeon General (CA-OSG) announced $30.8 million in ACEs Aware grant funding awarded to 35 organizations across California to build and strengthen robust “networks of care” to effectively respond to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress with community-based health and social supports that meet the needs of children, adults, and families. AVENUE is proud to be a "Convener" partner in this collaborative effort with the LA County Department of Health Services, One Degree, and First 5 LA Help Me Grow, and will assist community navigators to identify and connect with community partners and agencies in the Antelope Valley.

Contact us here if your organization is interested in connecting with one of our community navigators to learn more about our work.
