Our Mission and Vision
Knox Clinical Alliance is dedicated to bridging the gap in mental health and substance use education for underserved communities in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara counties.
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit uniting clinicians, educators, and community partners to advance prevention, compassion, and education across all stages of care. We empower youth, caregivers, and healthcare professionals through trauma-informed, evidence-based programs that build resilience, reduce stigma, and restore empathy to the practice of health and healing
We envision a future where education and empathy define every act of care—where youth lead prevention, caregivers feel supported and informed, and clinicians communicate with compassion.
Through collaborative partnerships with schools, hospitals, and community organizations, Knox Clinical Alliance works toward a world in which prevention is proactive, caregiving is empowered, and medicine is profoundly human.
Driving Change in Mental Health and Substance Use
Clinician-Led. Evidence-Based. Human-Centered.
We believe education is prevention—and empathy is medicine.
All programs follow a shared framework:
