Project AWARE Staff

While all district staff play some role in addressing the nonacademic needs of students, there are specific roles that are trained to address the mental health needs of students. These roles act in conjunction with community mental health agencies in meeting the mental health needs of all students. In recognizing the resources in our system currently, we have enhanced our services by hiring Student Support Specialists. 
 
Our Student Support Specialist provides early interventions for students and/or refer out to additional school base and/or community resources to address the need of the youth.
