El Concilio California hosts a Wellness and Justice Open House in Stockton on Wednesday. The open house runs from 1 to 3 p.m. at 237 E. Channel Street. Residents and families can meet the team in person. Attendees can ask questions and learn about resources for themselves or a family member. The gathering introduces the organization’s AB 109 Re-Entry Program and Behavioral Wellness Services.

Returning to community life can involve several needs at once. A question about work may overlap with a need for housing, education or family support. El Concilio describes its Re-Entry and AB 109 services as intensive case management and referrals. The referrals connect people with education, employment, housing, social services and family reintegration support. The open house lets attendees ask how those connections work. Attendees can also ask which eligibility or referral requirements apply.

Those descriptions concern the ongoing programs. They do not mean a job placement, housing arrangement or enrollment is guaranteed at the event.

El Concilio’s Behavioral Wellness Department serves people and families facing emotional, psychological or behavioral concerns. Its care emphasizes culturally responsive service and family involvement. Its published services include assessment, individual and family therapies, group therapies, outpatient care, case management and recovery support. Availability varies by program, age and eligibility. Residents can use the open house to ask which services fit their situation.

The event flyer advertises refreshments, snacks, raffles and prizes. Organizers ask visitors to scan a registration QR code to help them plan. The announcement does not state an admission charge. It does not clarify whether registration is mandatory for entry. Call 209-444-8910 for details. Refreshments and raffles are advertised.

Reentry programs help people return to community life after incarceration. Case managers connect clients with services and support. Wellness programs support emotional and behavioral health.

Residents can learn about ongoing services at elconcilio.org. The Stockton event listing and flyer are available through downtownstockton.org.
