School-Based Counseling Services provide licensed, trauma-informed mental health support directly on school campuses, ensuring students receive timely care without barriers. Our counselors offer individual and group therapy, crisis intervention, skill-building, and coordination with parents and school staff. The program strengthens protective factors, reduces risk behaviors, and helps students build resilience so they can succeed in school and life.
Sources of Strength (Suicide Prevention)
Peer leadership and resilience-building program that strengthens youth protective factors and prevents suicide, violence, and substance misuse.
Photovoice
Photovoice is a creative, youth-led mental health and empowerment initiative that uses photography and narrative to help students identify, express, and reflect on positive coping skills and lived experiences. Participants explore themes of stress, resilience, and well-being through guided photography prompts, then craft written narratives that give voice to their perspectives. The program culminates in community exhibitions where students share their work publicly, fostering awareness, reducing stigma, and strengthening community support for youth mental health.
