The broad goal of the grant is to increase access to mental health support for an additional 200,000 youth nationwide.</p> <p>As part of this support, Kaiser Permanente will join founding organizations Schultz Family Foundation and Pinterest as a strategic leader and national partner in advancing the Youth Mental Health Corps.</p> <p>The Youth Mental Health Corps recruits, trains, and places young adults ages 18 to 29 who provide peer support to teens within schools, health clinics, and community organization settings. It aims to help youth navigate stress, isolation, and early signs of mental health concerns before a crisis occurs. <a href="https://www.youthmentalhealthcorps.org/news-stories/youth-mental-health-corps-expands-to-16-states-in-2026">Active in 16 states</a>, the Youth Mental Health Corps has trained and placed nearly 1,000 members and reached more than 44,000 teens and community members since launching in 2024.</p> <p>“Supporting mental health requires more than clinical care alone,” said Bechara Choucair, executive vice president and chief health officer for Kaiser Permanente. “The Youth Mental Health Corps creates another pathway for young people to receive emotional support through trusted peer relationships. It’s an innovative approach that helps communities expand support, foster connection, and meet young people where they are.”</p> <p>Rates of anxiety and depression among teens are rising, and resources are limited. In 2023, 40% of high school students in the United States <a href="https://www.kff.org/mental-health/5-key-facts-on-adolescent-mental-health-and-substance-use-disorders/">reported</a> <a href="https://www.kff.org/mental-health/5-key-facts-on-adolescent-mental-health-and-substance-use-disorders/">persistent feelings of sadness or hopelessness</a>. In 2024, more than 40% of youth 12 to 17 who experienced a major depressive episode did not receive any mental health treatment.</p> <p>Kaiser Permanente’s $10 million commitment will help the Youth Mental Health Corps reach more young people and strengthen training for the young adults who provide peer support. The funding will initially expand existing Youth Mental Health Corps programs in California, Maryland, and Oregon, before scaling across Kaiser Permanente’s 9-state footprint.</p> <p>A growing body of research shows that young people often <a href="https://mhanational.org/peer-support-research-and-reports/">feel more comfortable talking with peers</a> they trust. Peer support approaches are particularly effective in fostering human connections, reducing isolation, and helping young people navigate personal challenges.</p> <p>“The Youth Mental Health Corps was launched by the Schultz Family Foundation and Pinterest to prove that we could address 2 urgent needs at once: expanding access to youth mental health support while creating career pathways into the behavioral health workforce. In just 2 years, the corps has grown from 4 pilot states to a 27-state initiative that has already supported tens of thousands of young people,” said Vivek Varma, CEO of the Schultz Family Foundation. “Kaiser Permanente's extraordinary leadership and investment will help us build on that momentum, and we are thrilled to welcome a partner whose deep expertise and longstanding commitment to youth mental health will strengthen this work for years to come.”</p> <p>The Youth Mental Health Corps has gained support from state leaders and community organizations committed to improving youth mental health. They see the program as an opportunity for young adults to get early career experience providing mental health services, potentially helping to grow the field’s professional pipeline.</p> <p>“I am thankful to Kaiser Permanente and the Schultz Family Foundation and Pinterest for supporting the Youth Mental Health Corps and increasing access to mental health services,” said Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, a longtime champion of service-to-career pathways. “Through service opportunities, we are creating meaningful pathways for young people to uplift their communities while they gain skills needed to succeed in their careers.”</p> <p>This grant builds on Kaiser Permanente’s wider efforts to strengthen mental health at the population level through investments in innovative models of support, workforce development initiatives, educational partnerships, and other approaches to expanding access to care. As a nonprofit health care organization, Kaiser Permanente reinvests a portion of its revenue into initiatives like Youth Mental Health Corps that broadly benefit the communities where it operates.</p> <p>Kaiser Permanente leaders will participate in the <a href="https://www.nga.org/">National Governors Association’s</a> Summer Meeting in early August to discuss how innovative national service models can help states address pressing challenges like mental health, with the Youth Mental Health Corps highlighted as an example of this approach.</p> <h3><b>About the Youth Mental Health Corps</b></h3> <p>The Youth Mental Health Corps is a national service initiative addressing two urgent challenges: the youth mental health crisis and the behavioral health workforce shortage. The Corps trains and places young adults ages 18 to 29 as near-peer mental health navigators in schools, community organizations, and health care settings, providing trusted, non-clinical support to youth while gaining the training, credentials, and experience needed to pursue careers in behavioral health. Created by the Schultz Family Foundation and Pinterest, the Youth Mental Health Corps is powered by a multisector partnership of state service commissions, philanthropic organizations, and corporate partners.

medical offices in northern Nevada as part of its joint venture with Renown Health, expanding access to high‑quality, affordable health care for the local community.</p> <p>This expansion comes as Hometown Health — now jointly owned by Kaiser Permanente and Renown Health — is becoming Kaiser Permanente.</p> <p>Now, members can obtain primary care and other medical services at the Kaiser Permanente Del Monte Medical Offices in Reno and the Kaiser Permanente Ion Medical Offices in Sparks. A third Kaiser Permanente medical facility, in central Reno, is scheduled to open in late 2026. These locations will offer primary care, laboratory services, pharmacy, and imaging, making prevention-focused care more convenient and easier to access.</p> <p>“We’re bringing a model of care that is proven to deliver better health outcomes, lower costs, and a more seamless experience for patients,” said Trish Rodriguez, regional president for Kaiser Permanente in Nevada. “We’re proud to do that in partnership with a trusted local organization like Renown Health, as we move into Nevada and expand the reach of our integrated care and coverage to more people.”</p> <p>In addition to receiving primary care from Kaiser Permanente doctors, members will continue to have access to Renown Health’s full spectrum of high-quality hospital and specialty services.</p> <p>“This collaboration allows us to combine local expertise with a deeply integrated approach to care,” said Mark Roberts, MD, executive medical director, Kaiser Permanente in Nevada. “By closely coordinating physicians, hospitals, and health plans, we can deliver care that’s not only high quality and evidence based, but also easier for patients to navigate — when and where they need it.”</p> <p>This integrated care and coverage model consistently delivers personal, prevention-based care. Kaiser Permanente members experience industry-leading health outcomes and are <a href="https://healthy.kaiserpermanente.org/health-wellness/cancer-care">20% less likely</a> to die prematurely from cancer and <a href="https://healthy.kaiserpermanente.org/southern-california/health-wellness/heart-health">33% less likely</a> to die prematurely from heart disease compared with nonmembers living in their communities.</p> <p>“Our customers are increasingly looking for solutions that provide stability, value, and better health outcomes,” said Bethany Sexton, health plan leader, Kaiser Permanente in Nevada. “Kaiser Permanente’s integrated model does exactly that — aligning coverage and care to ensure affordability while supporting healthier employees and communities across northern Nevada.”</p> <p>Kaiser Permanente will begin offering new health plan coverage options in northern Nevada during open enrollment in fall 2026 for the 2027 plan year.</p> </div> </div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div id="c07-text-de624c543b"> <h3>Kaiser Permanente Nevada facility facts</h3> <p><b>Ion Medical Offices, 5070 Ion Dr., Ste. 100, Sparks</b></p> </div> </div> <div> <div> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><b>Size</b></td> <td>13 exam rooms</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Services</b></td> <td>Primary care and lab services available immediately; imaging and pharmacy scheduled to open in 2027</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Parking</b></td> <td>Free on-site</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Hours</b></td> <td>Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </div> <div> <div id="c07-text-b47370af18"> <p><b>Del Monte Medical Offices, 740 Del Monte Ln., Ste. 3, Reno</b></p> </div> </div> <div> <div> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><b>Size</b></td> <td>15 exam rooms</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Services</b></td> <td>Primary care and lab services available immediately; imaging and pharmacy scheduled to open in 2027</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Parking</b></td> <td>Free on-site</td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Hours</b></td> <td>Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <article> <div> <div> <div> </div> </div> <div> <h3>About Kaiser Permanente</h3> <div> <div> </div> </div> <p>Kaiser Permanente is committed to helping shape the future of health care.
