Join us online for the official launch of www.OKSBC.org on April 5, 2023 as the Santa Barbara County Department Of Behavioral Wellness normalizes the conversation of mental health.

Santa Barbara County Department of Behavior Wellness is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with local youth in Santa Barbara County for their new campaign, It’s OK not to be OK, a campaign focused on mental health and substance misuse from the perspective of our local SBC youth.

The It’s OK SBC Youth Roundtable video series features local youth opening up about their journey to mental well-being.

Watch the Videos by clicking here!

Meet Elly, Kiara, Victor, Emily, Katie, Angela, and Daniel as they share their journey to mental well-being.

Local youth discuss substance misuse issues in our schools and community and how mental health challenges impact youth and ways to cope.
