About EQNITE Orange County

EQNITE O.C. is part of the EQ UNITED initiative, which is a community-powered movement for families and children rallying people and organizations together to strengthen children’s mental health and support family wellbeing and joy.

Many families are feeling the strain, without enough tools, shared language, or community support.

Parents everywhere want their children to grow up emotionally strong, resilient, and confident. They want to help their children build healthy relationships, navigate challenges — while also caring for their own wellbeing and joy along the way.

EQ UNITED has been created as a grassroots movement to move from just talking about the problem of children’s mental health to implementing solutions.

When communities come together around a shared purpose, local actions create lasting, far-reaching impact.

EQ UNITED is lead by the 501(c)(3) charity EQJOY Co, which is on a mission to strengthen children’s mental health through the power of Emotional Intelligence (EQ). EQJOY collaborates with a wide range of partners to help children develop the EQ skills they need to build their resilience and improve their social skills, and to set them on the path to living fulfillng, joyful lives by becoming Masters of EQ.
