Care Solace

Care Solace is an online resource with a live 24/7 concierge line to assist

individuals in finding local mental health related programs and counseling

services. To use Care Solace, individuals answer ten basic questions to receive an

extensive list of referrals to applicable care providers. Care Solace will also support you in making the first appointment. Care Solace considers all types of private insurance including Medi-Cal, Medicaid, and Medicare and those that have no insurance. The system also filters by age, gender, zip code and special request.

Care Solace is now available for use by CUSD students, staff, and families at no cost.

Please note, this service is an optional resource available by choice, and is not

mandatory in any way. Care Solace does not require a user’s address, phone

number, or date of birth. All of the information that is entered on their platform is

completely confidential and stored securely.
