Welcome to Taino Incorporated!
Taino, Inc. is more than just a nonprofit organization; we are a community of individuals committed to spreading “One Love from Good People.” Our journey began in August 2022, driven by the values of Patience, Integrity, and Love instilled in us by those who exemplified what it means to be Good People. The term “Taino” translates to “Good people” in the native language of the Tainos from the Caribbean, and it encapsulates our belief in the profound power of community and positive energy.
Our central purpose at Taino Inc. is to provide vital mental wellness tools and resources to underserved populations. We are guided by evidence-based prevention and intervention programs, including Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) and P.E.A.R.L.s.
We are aware of the impact of social determinants on the demographics we serve. To address these challenges, we’ve initiated programs such as Auntie’s Pantry (food security) and Big Sis/Bro Closet (clothing and grooming to nurture self-love).
Our overarching global mission is to enhance and support health initiatives, with a special emphasis on mental wellness within communities. We firmly believe that mental wellness is as integral to overall well-being as physical health and is vital for individuals to thrive and positively contribute to their communities.
With your support, our vision becomes a reality. Together, we strive to impact the world, one community and one person at a time.
Welcome to Taino Incorporated, where we’re dedicated to making a difference and spreading the power of One Love from Good People.
Our Programs
We have four core programs that are designed to meet the unique needs of our community members:
Mental Health First Aid Training– Public education program that helps individuals identify, understand and respond to signs of mental illnesses and crisis.
P.E.A.R.L.S.– One-on-one coaching and problem-solving treatment for
individuals who need personalized
support for depression.
Auntie’s Pantry: Hot home-cooked meals and nutrition education for those experiencing food insecurity.
Big Sis Closet: Clothing and beauty services for individuals who need support with their self-esteem and confidence.
Our Strategy for Success
As an organization, we face several challenges, including awareness, funding, and location. Our strategy for success is to connect with the community and provide mental wellness self-management tools through the services and resources we offer. We aim to approach different demographics in ways that are genuine and relatable to have an impact.
At Taino Inc, we believe that every individual deserves access to mental wellness resources and support, and we are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of our community members. We invite you to join us in spreading Good Love from Good People.
