No. Parents and guardians may request services directly, or a referral can be made by a teacher, counselor, or school administrator. To participate in school or community-based therapy, the student must be enrolled in a school where we currently offer community-based therapy. We can take referrals directly from social workers at participating schools, or our intake team can offer community-based therapy for those eligible. If you’re interested while in an intake session, you can ask if your child is eligible for community-based therapy at their school during the school year and your clinician can help check eligibility from there.

It’s all about providing care where it fits best—in the place they spend most of their day—so students can stay on track academically while getting help that really makes a difference.

"I had an extreme case of PTSD when I came here. I worked with a psychiatrist, a therapist and a case manager every week. I was too afraid to leave my home, lost all of my friends and completely shut down.... After a few years of working with this team, I found myself accomplishing more and more every day.
