Marin Charitable announced the inaugural Wilhelm Grant — a new, periodic initiative designed to support transformational opportunities for youth and families in the community.

This year, Community Institute for Psychotherapy received $25,000 to launch a new, whole-family therapy initiative focused on supporting children and caregivers together through counseling, assessment, communication support, trauma-informed care and family healing. The grant, the largest single gift in Marin Charitable’s 65-year history, will fund approximately 555 hours of therapy for nearly 30 families, providing an average of 18.5 sessions per family.

“As we celebrate 65 years of supporting Marin’s children, we are proud to launch the Wilhelm Grant with a project that addresses one of the most pressing needs facing families today,” said Sherene Chen, president of Marin Charitable’s Board of Directors. “This investment reflects our belief that when children and caregivers heal, learn and grow together, the benefits extend far beyond the family and strengthen our entire community.”
