Program Overview
This 32-week afterschool program is for Somali and other East African youth (ages 5 to 13) from low socioeconomic families in King County.
The basketball clinic is a drop-in program where youth develop skills and engage in physical exercise, while having access to mental health counsellors (offering group therapy both on-site and remotely).

Given that mental health services are culturally stigmatized in East African communities, this athletic sports clinic acts as a pipeline to mental health services and social support networks for at-risk East African youth in King County.
The basketball clinic enables coaches, volunteers, and staff to build trusted client-centered mentorships, while fostering a more culturally appropriate, holistic, and integrative approach to mental health service delivery than western models permit.
