Mental and Behavioral Health Grant

Hello Everyone! I look forward to continuing our work with your mental health teams! I have included the PLC schedule and ZOOM link to register for our PLCs through April along with the links for the Implementation Roadmap. There is also a link to create a School Health Assessment and Performance Evaluation System (SHAPE) Account for any team member that has not created an account. I'm always here if you have any questions or concerns! My goal is to support your mental and behavioral health goals for your students; let's make this happen!

Sincerely,

Kim Guerrero,

Professional Development Consultant

Education Service Center
