The Mental Wellness Team in Avon continues to support universal SEL with teachers and school counselors, small group interventions, and individual interventions with school social workers and school-based community mental health workers. Krista is a certified Youth Mental Health First Aid trainer and works in collaboration with school resource officers to ensure a holistic crisis response.

Perry’s mental health team, made up of social workers and counselors, provides supports for referred students. Using Panorama as a universal screener, the district’s MTSS team has done extensive planning and data analysis in order to increase referrals and wrap-around services for students and families. Included on this team is the School Resources Officer whose intentional focus on relationships with students has helped create alignment between the district’s school safety and mental health supports.
