The Power of School-Behavioral Health Partnerships
Original Source: www.TheNationalCouncil.org |
| In many ways, COVID-19 has forced us to adjust our approach to how we live our lives, go to work and teach our children. While its essential that all students with behavioral health needs receive high-quality care and education, it can get complicated within the scope of an enduring pandemic. Partnerships between schools and behavioral health systems can help. |

The Path to Reconciliation
Written by: Alice D. Hoag, Ed.D. |
| When an individual has been betrayed, their world turns upside down, their trust in their betrayer is shattered, and they are plagued with grief, pain, confusion, self-doubts, longings, and lots and lots of questions about how something so terrible could have happened to them. Forgiveness is a mere starting point on the long journey toward healing. |

Online Mental Health Screening |
| Most people feel anxiety from time to time. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, about 18% of adults and 8% of adolescents in the U.S. have an anxiety disorder. It’s likely you’ve felt worried or fearful about things like performing well in a soccer game, getting a new job, public speaking, or taking an exam. But when worries become overwhelming and interfere with activities, it may be time to seek support. |
