Help Us Feed Florida This Summer

Join Elite DNA Behavioral Health in supporting our communities this Mental Health Awareness Month by participating in our statewide food drive. From May 1 to May 24, we’re collecting essential food items at all 32 of our locations to combat hunger and its impact on mental health.

The summer can be a very difficult time for families who struggle with food security, as they no longer have access to the school food programs that support them throughout the year. Individuals who are constantly worrying about where their next meal will come from, or where their family’s next meal will come from, can develop mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety and even post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). So we’re aiming to assist those individuals as much as possible this summer with our donations.
