Mental Health

Some students face emotional, behavioral and mental health challenges, either directly themselves or in their immediate family. Our site coordinators are trained to help identify and reach out to kids and families who may need support services.

Our commitment is to treat every child with dignity and respect, and ensure they receive the services and support they need to be their best.
