A $231,000 grant will let Samaritan Counseling Center of the Fox Valley provide in-school mental health services in Calumet County.
THRIVE Calumet is a collaboration to provide on-site mental health services to school districts in partnership with Samaritan Counseling Center of the Fox Valley.
Samaritan Counseling Center Executive Director Rosangela Berbert says the school-based counseling makes a difference. If the screening identifies a mental health concern, the student will have a confidential follow-up conversation with a screening staff member and parents/guardians can receive a referral to an area mental health provider.
Berbert says the services will be provided to the Brillion, Chilton, Hilbert, New Holstein and Stockbridge school districts.
You can learn more about the program on the latest Focus Fox Valley.
