Mental Health Resources
If you have concerns about your child during the summer months, or any time, that you would like to discuss with an LCPS Student Mental Health Services (SMHS) team member, contact SMHSLeadershipTeam@lcps.org. Please provide the best contact number, and someone from the Student Mental Health Services team will contact you within two business days. For mental health emergencies, please see our Crisis Mental Health Resources webpage for local and national resources.
Below are additional resources to support you and your student:
- Care Solace, a care coordination service, navigates the mental health care system on your behalf to find community-based providers and secure appointments as quickly as possible with the best care match possible.

ParentGuidance.org also offers free parent coaching, which pairs parents/guardians with a parenting coach and therapist-created content.

This summer, The Williams Center offers a Summer Empowerment Program for high school students navigating emotional, social, and mental health challenges.
