Sesame Street

1 in 28 children in the United States have a parent in state or federal prison.

Unfortunately, few resources exist to support young children and families coping with this life-changing circumstance. These children have to deal with the confusion, shame, and anger that accompany the sudden absence of a parent. The 2.7 million children with an incarcerated parent share similar experiences, but they don’t often feel comfortable talking about them. Their parents and caregivers don’t often know how to begin the conversation, and at times discourage children from mentioning it to other adults in their life, such as teachers and extended family.

In order to support children with an incarcerated parent and help them persevere through such a challenging experience, Sesame Workshop launched the Little Children, Big Challenges: Incarceration initiative. The bi-lingual (English/Spanish) resources include videos and a storybook for children to help support and comfort them, videos and guides for parents and caregivers to help them find the language to talk about incarceration with their children, and a resource for the incarcerated parent that highlights the importance of communication.

Divine Family Resources Center provides Housing Assistance, Basic Living Skills, Vocational training, Mental health and Substance abuse counseling, Job referrals, Mentoring, and Leadership workshops. We provide services to low income families, homeless veterans, youth and young adults between the ages of 11-25 years old that are at risk of joining gangs, going to prison, and/or becoming high school drop outs. Our goal is to develop and empower our clients to become positive leaders and responsible adults.

The mission of Divine Family Resource Center is to develop the total person; spirit, mind and body through character-development programs that build strong kids, strong families, and strong communities .

We are empowering people to reach their potential by providing comprehensive development services in a diverse and caring environment.

The Well Care Group

Our story began with the opening of our first location, Well Care Pharmacy in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2007. In 2013, a major consolidation in the industry occurred and Well Care Pharmacy successfully sold its retail operations to CVS Pharmacy while retaining its Compounding Pharmacy and “Long Term Care” Pharmacy that serviced hospitals, group homes and skilled nursing facilities.

Today, we continue to operate Well Care Compounding, Long Term Care and MDRx, a program that enables Physicians and Private Practices to dispense medication at the point of care. In 2015, we introduced Well Care Mental Health1, a service focused on healthcare solutions for the behavioral and homeless population in Las Vegas. We opened our first clinic in October 2015 and another 8,000 square foot Medical and Behavioral Clinic in January 2016. The vision expanded to Northern Nevada and we opened Well Care Medical and Behavioral Clinic2 in Reno Nevada in October 2016.
