FORT MYERS, Fla. - TelAve -- Elite DNA Behavioral Health, a comprehensive behavioral and mental health care provider, recently collected more than 300 new and unwrapped toys to support the Children's Advocacy Center of Southwest Florida's Christmas toy drive.

The collection spanned 11 Elite DNA offices from Bradenton to Naples and encouraged the community to support its local Children's Advocacy Center. Items collected include Barbie dolls, coloring books, stuffed animals, action figures, games, Play-Doh, Legos, Hot Wheels, bicycles and a guitar.

"We are so thankful for Elite DNA Behavioral Health and the many community members who made this toy drive such a success," said Alicia Shannon, CEO of the Children's Advocacy Center of Southwest Florida. "This toy drive reflects a shared commitment to protecting children, supporting healing and strengthening families across Southwest Florida."

The Children's Advocacy Center's mission is to provide a coordinated response to child victims of abuse and neglect, and to improve the lives of at-risk children and their families through prevention services.

"We continue to be endlessly grateful to our communities, partners, patients, families, employees and every community member who gives us the opportunity to uplift local families and support local agencies, including our wonderful partners at the Children's Advocacy Center of Southwest Florida," said Elizabeth Dosoretz, LCSW, founder and CEO of Elite DNA Behavioral Health.
