Annie Kim, Managing Director

Annie Kim moved to the Bay Area in late 2009 from Los Angeles to be a part of an innovative mental health program within Alameda County. She was promoted to Program Director in early 2012 and has facilitated over a hundred workshops at local, state and national conferences, summit meetings, and county committees advocating for mental health wellness for all. She has been known to cultivate community alliances to strengthen the voice of families, caregivers, and consumers who are all impacted by mental health challenges. Over the past ten years, she took a once known as: “a county contracted pilot program” into a well-respected community-based organization nominated for the National Association of Counties Achievement Awards in 2018; she received the Family Advocate Award from Dartmouth in 2015; and Transitional Age Youth (TAY) Program Award in 2014. She has an extensive background in building nonprofit programs from an operational standpoint, along with expansion and contract procurement.

Annie Kim attended New York University and graduated from UCLA. She looks forward to continuing to empower the youth and their initiatives while cultivating community partners in this mission to bring awareness to teen mental health. “You’re not alone.”
