School Social Work Services
Through the collective efforts of our dedicated Mental Health Team. We strive to provide comprehensive school social work services that support the emotional, behavioral, and social well-being of all students. Grounded in trauma-informed principles, we strive to create safe, supportive, and equitable school environments where every student feels seen, heard, and valued. Through collaborative partnerships with families, educators, and community stakeholders, we work to remove barriers to learning, foster resilience, and empower students to reach their full potential—academically, socially, and emotionally.

Students can be referred for support. When a referral is made, the receiving Mental Health Team member consults with all involved parties to gather information and develop a plan in order to best respond to the assessed needs. Parent permission is required for ongoing individual and small group intervention work.
