Student Assistance Program

(SAP)

In our SAP Program, our dedicated counselors provide 1 on 1 personalized counseling to adolescents inside of the school setting.  We also provide family counseling sessions, also in the school, on top of our 1 on 1 sessions.  Our counselors work hand in hand with school districts and their staff to directly provide individualized counseling services to any student who may be dealing with substance use issues.  A 10-week CBITS Group is also run through this program.  This 10-week group is a trauma-based curriculum geared towards helping any adolescents who have experienced childhood trauma.  All of these counseling services are provided to allow for these students to strive toward academic, emotional and behavior well-being.  Our safe environment, overflowing support, and clear guided paths to recovery empower every student to succeed on their road to recovery.
