At Contigo Wellness, we don’t just offer services—we reclaim space, restore power, and revive cultural memory through healing justice. Together, we are growing a future where mental health belongs to us all.
Our Impact
Decolonial Community Wellness
At Contigo Wellness, a leading organization in decolonial and anti-racism healing work; we believe healing is a collective act of liberation. As a Latina-led, BIPOC-centered nonprofit, we work at the intersection of mental health, culture, and community resilience—offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded wellness to those most impacted by systemic harm.
Wellness that Meets People Where They Are
Our work centers historically excluded communities:
BIPOC families
Court-involved youth and adults
LGBTQIA+ individuals
Immigrant and rural residents
Undocumented and system-impacted people
We deliver non-clinical, holistic care through:
Bilingual workshops & healing circles
Crisis-response wellness kits during climate events and displacements
Resilience hubs in partnership with the Red Cross and CAP
Culturally grounded curriculum for justice-involved youth
Public wellness murals that honor community history and reclaim public space
Healing Through Public Art
