May is Mental Health Month!
RCDC will host their Annual May Mental Health event at Christ Temple Church on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, from 9 am to 1 pm. Our goal is to highlight May Mental Health Month and address the stigma associated with mental health, especially during this time of uncertainty and crisis that so many of us are experiencing. For this reason, RCDC invites you to join us to promote healing, health & wellness and serve the most vulnerable in our community who are experiencing homelessness. This annual series of events serves the Leimert Park and surrounding neighborhoods. There will be food, music, wellness activities, haircuts, a health clinic, and much more. This family-friendly gathering promises fun & activities for all ages. Come together for a day of well-being, connection, and joy!
What: Being friendly, ready to serve, and interacting with guests and volunteers are the main requirements!
Why this project matters: Our neighbors will be able to access services that improve their lives. When we work with fellow volunteers to meet the needs of our neighbors, our entire community benefits.
Wear: Please wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty. Wear closed-toe shoes and leave your jewelry and bags at home. If you've volunteered with us before, feel free to wear your Better Angels T-shirt to show your support! If this is your first time volunteering we will provide you with a T-shirt. Please include your T-shirt size in your profile.
What to bring: Water bottle or your favorite beverage, and sunscreen/ sun protection
Age: All people aged 14 and up are welcome. We will have family-friendly activities.
