High School Program

We provide prevention/intervention specialists to eleven Philadelphia area non-public schools.  These specialists work with the schools to provide an array of services to students, school staff and parents.  Our specialists work in the classroom setting to provide prevention and education programs to students.  They work with students individually and in small groups to provide intervention and support services on a variety of issues.  Our specialists consult with faculty and administrators to provide a behavioral health perspective to problematic situations confronting today’s educators.

The prevention/intervention specialists also work with teachers and administrators to facilitate the functioning of the Student Assistance Program.  The Student Assistance Program (SAP) is a Pennsylvania mandated program.  The goal of SAP is to identify, assist and refer students who are experiencing “barriers to learning."   Our specialists also consult with parents around a variety of issues that affect families.  The issues our specialists address with students, school staff and parents include mental health problems, substance abuse, family problems, relationship issues, grief, separation and divorce of parents, academic issues and many others.
