 Types of Support

Managing Complex Situations:

Sometimes Students and their families are already connected to many services, but still need help managing it all. Our Facilitators offer comprehensive case management support to ensure everyone involved is communicating clearly and families are receiving the best support possible. 

Mental Health Clinicians:

SchoolsPlus Mental Health Clinicians provide counselling in schools, for students in grade 7 to 12. Students and parents self-refer by calling IWK Central Referral at (902) 464-4110.

Group Programming:

Our staff can offer group programming for students as well as parents and caregivers.  This can include lunch time and after school programs, as well as full-class presentations.  Some examples of past programming include: parent coffee hours, social skills groups, healthy relationships programs, and more!
