School Social Work

School social workers provide social and developmental assessments, crisis intervention and case work services to individual students when they are referred. They also facilitate outside agency referrals and serve as home, school, and community liaisons.

Concerns may include but are not limited to: suicide, mental health, ADHD, special education, alcohol/drug abuse, truancy, neglect, homelessness, social problems and child abuse. The school social workers work as a part of a collaborative team to meet the needs of all students.
