Mental Health Resources Welcome Grizzlies!
The Mental Health Professionals within ABCUSD are advocates who provide a variety of therapeutic services and social-emotional skills to support students in identifying and achieving academic and social-emotional goals. Mental Health Professionals support students in their educational processes by providing students with counseling and crisis intervention, supporting parent and family involvement, and assisting and planning school-based interventions with educators.
This website was created as a resource library to help reinforce skills at home. Please view the tabs to access social-emotional resources, worksheets, books, and more!
