  • Individual support
  • Restorative practices

    • Meet on a weekly or bi-weekly basis
    • Topics focus on a range of adolescent issues including: relationship building, substance abuse/vaping, grief & loss, social skills, and school success.
  • Student can be referred by the SAP, parent, school staff, peer or self.
  • Participation is voluntary, but students will be encouraged to participate if referred.
