The Crisis Intervention program is a partnership with Communities in Schools provides students in crisis with interventions that alleviate emotional and behavioral challenges, enhance coping skills, improve student emotional and physical health, and in turn, academic achievement. Students in need of counseling services are identified by staff and families.

We specialize in providing mental health services to all students and their families including:

• ADVOCACY- Ensuring that students and families VOICES ARE HEARD, and that fair, equal and appropriate assistance is given.

• INTERVENTION SUPPORT- Providing intervention support for families to help REBUILD HOPE and RESTORE FAITH after crisis or trauma has occurred. 

• TRAUMA INFORMED AND VICTIM CARE- Ensuring the emotional health of our students and families, through education, support, empowerment and TRUST.

• SEL- Social and Emotional Learning support, including establishing a TRUSTING relationship, intentional relevant activities and discussions while creating a goal of lasting resilience. 

• MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT - Professional supportive resources provided to those students and families whose thoughts, feelings, moods and ability to relate have been disrupted.
