How do I sign my child up?
Beginning with the 2021-2022 school year, Mental health providers will be assigned to a small number of schools. Over time, all schools will offer SBH. Contact your child's school counselor or social worker to determine if your child's school offers the SBH program and the name of the assigned mental health provider.
