The Ballmer Group awarded $77 million to California State University campuses to expand mental health services and train additional counselors and social workers in the Los Angeles region. The grants include $48 million for Cal State LA to train more than 1,000 new counselors and social workers, and $29 million for California State University, Dominguez Hills to educate hundreds of mental health professionals serving children and families in South Los Angeles. For Cal State LA, the investment is expected to double the capacity of its one-year Master of Social Work and school-based family counseling programs and increase enrollment in its two-year M.S.W. program by 50 percent, with a major share of funding supporting scholarships. CSUDH will launch Toros Heal L.A., aimed at building a culturally responsive, community-rooted workforce through scholarships, licensure preparation, and emergency aid. The announcement ties philanthropic capacity directly to student success outcomes by expanding clinical training pipelines that campuses can scale into local school systems and public and nonprofit mental health providers.
