Foster Care Training

Anxiety is a common reason for students to be referred for school-based mental health support, particularly during the middle school years when developmental, social, and academic demands intensify. This interactive six-hour training (broken into two parts) equips school-based mental health providers with the knowledge and tools to recognize how anxiety presents in adolescents, understand its impact on learning and behavior, and respond with effective, school-friendly strategies. Participants will explore topics such as recognizing anxiety, understanding the roots of anxiety, developing intervention strategies, collaborating with teachers and parents, and how to create a supportive educational environment.
