The cheapest crisis to treat is the one that never happens.
This pilot with Center School District tests a preventative behavioral health model aimed at reducing the number of children who reach a mental health crisis.
The program trains students and staff in skills that strengthen student to student and teacher to student relationships, building empathy, personal accountability, and a stronger school community.
