BrightLife Kids — supporting California families since 2024

Brightline is partnered with the state of California to provide California families with kids up to age 12 with free, online behavioral health coaching and resources

What is BrightLife Kids?

It’s a free, online, behavioral health coaching program created by Brightline and 100% paid for by the state of California.

A tender moment between an adult and child sitting together on a concrete ledge against a beige wall with orange sun decoration. The adult wears a mint green sweater and khakis, while the child wears a beanie, baseball-style shirt, and holds what appears to be a snack. They're sharing a joyful conversation outdoors.
  • Coaching helps caregivers and kids manage everyday concerns like tantrums, school avoidance, sadness and worry, relationships, bullying, social and study skills, and big feelings.

  • Every California family is eligible — all you need is a California zip code and a child between the ages of 0–12 to sign up. We’re here for everyone and free for everyone.

  • Families get Zoom sessions, an online library of articles and resources, and a safe, private community where caregivers can ask questions and connect with other parents — all free.

  • We offer bilingual (English/Spanish) coaches, live interpreter services in 17 other Medi-Cal languages, and experience working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities.
