California Health & Wellness (CHW) announced today it has awarded a $25,000 grant to Lighthouse Counseling and Family Resource Center (Lighthouse) to help mitigate Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) caused by the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The demand for these types of services for children has increased dramatically during the pandemic due to social isolation, increased child abuse, breaks in education routines, and an increase in domestic violence witnessed by children.
