Strengthening our community through collaboration

Contact Community Services has forged strong partnerships with school districts and local community and government agencies and leaders to strengthen our community.

Mental Health & Education Systems Collaborative

Contact Community Services convenes the Mental Health & Education Systems Collaborative with representatives from schools, school districts and the mental health community. The goal is to better meet the mental health needs of children and their families so that students will be more successful in school, home and community.

The group’s goals include:

• Training to provide information about services, resources and best practices
• Improving the identification, assessment, and referral / linkage of children and families in need of services
• Investigating funding opportunities for services and training
