Our Familia Caring For Yours
At La Familia del Paso, we pride ourselves on our heartfelt dedication to the El Paso community through a variety of meaningful annual events. Our weekly food pantry in central El Paso sustains many, while "La Bodeguita," our cherished low-cost thrift store, offers a treasure trove of affordable finds. We also provide affordable housing options for adults with disabilities, ensuring a supportive environment for all. To us, La Familia del Paso is more than just a name—it’s a true family. In our beloved border community, we are committed to championing mental health and partnering with families to make a lasting, positive impact on their lives. We invite you to explore some of our recent and upcoming events below!
Spring Events

2025 Mental Health Awareness Walk
Mental Health Awareness Month offers our team a valuable opportunity to highlight mental health, promote engagement with our services, and unite both consumers and staff in the shared mission to destigmatize mental health issues. This year, both staff and consumers proudly took part in a 1.9-mile walk aimed at raising awareness in the historic neighborhoods of downtown El Paso. We wrapped up the month on a high note with a celebratory luncheon.

2025 Spring Health and Fun Fair
During Mental Health Awareness Month, La Familia del Paso hosted a Spring Health and Fun Fair at our Horizon Clinic and it was a fantastic success! Families enjoyed a lively and interactive atmosphere with carnival games, delicious food and drinks, and live music, and raffle prizes. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with the community and collaborate with other health organizations. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped spread the word!
Summer Events

2025 Kids Summer Camp
This year, from July 7-11, La Familia del Paso welcomed 30 kids and teens for our annual Kids Summer Camp. Beyond engaging in fun summer activities, our camp team offered opportunities for campers to forge new friendships, ignite creativity, and explore essential emotional and mental health skills.

2025 Adult Day Program Homecoming Week
The Adult Day Program recently hosted its inaugural Homecoming week, and needless to say, our consumers loved it! The week featured traditional spirit week outfits, engaging activities, and a homecoming dance complete with their very own homecoming court. It was a truly memorable experience, offering our participants a chance to enjoy an inclusive celebration.

Annual Christmas Spirit of Giving Toy Drive
We are thrilled to partner with the El Paso del Norte Health Foundation for their annual Spirit of Giving toy drive. Our team has prepared a list of children and adults with special needs who require a little extra magic this Christmas season. And while all the children's wish lists have been adopted, we still need help making our adults' Christmas wishes come true! Help us spread some holiday cheer by adopting someone this season! For more information, please contact our Donations Director, Eva Avila, at eavila@lafamiliadelpaso.com.
