Since 1967, Child Guidance Center of Orange County has served as a beacon of hope and healing for children, teens, and families struggling with the impact of childhood mental illness. Many of our young clients are healing from the trauma of abuse, neglect, domestic violence, or community violence, and our teen clients need support as they face chronic symptoms of depression, anxiety or other hard-to-imagine pressures that sadly, can alter their lives in a moment.

Child Guidance Center's Annual Holiday Tree Fantasy is a truly unique event that ushers in the joy of the holiday spirit with designer-decorated Christmas tree packages for raffle, complimentary champagne reception, premium mystery wine pull, silent and live auctions and a gourmet luncheon! Last year's gala raised over $190,000 to directly support Child Guidance Center's award-winning mental health services for vulnerable youth and family. Over 300 guests attend, including local business leaders and philathropists.
