Behavioral Health Overview

School-based behavioral health (SBBH)
programs bridge gaps by offering care within
schools, a more comfortable and trusted setting
for students and their families.

We convene educators, mental health
professionals, policymakers, families, and young
people in communities statewide to share best
practices and build support for SBBH.

We draw on our unique legal expertise to provide
guidance and published resources to schools on
starting SBBH programs, such as:

• Establishing a School-Based Behavioral
  Health Program
• Certified Peer Specialists and Schools:
  Creating a Successful CPS Partnership
• Sample CPS Partnership Agreement
• Sample CPS Consent Form
