Be Well OC Mobile Mental Health Services Update

The City of Laguna Beach values the partnership with Be Well OC and the important mental health support their mobile team provided to our community.

On April 18, 2023, the City Council approved a two year agreement with Mind OC, operating as Be Well OC, to provide dedicated mobile mental health services. The program launched locally on August 1, 2023, and, through supplemental funding, continued to serve Laguna Beach through January 2026. Be Well OC notified the City that, due to funding constraints affecting the program, the dedicated mobile unit concluded service at the end of January.

During its time in Laguna Beach, the Be Well OC team offered compassionate, professional care and helped connect residents, businesses, and visitors to critical mental health resources. The City and Be Well OC are continuing discussions to identify a financially sustainable model that could allow mobile mental health services to return in the future.

Mental health support remains available throughout Orange County. Individuals who need immediate assistance may call or text 988 for confidential support. In an emergency, please call 911.

The City will share updates on this page as additional information becomes available.
