Building on the strengths of school communities to inspire hope and promote healing.

Our staff includes over 100 mental health professionals and youth development specialists, all dedicated to anti-racist, anti-oppressive, healing-centered practices. Our counselors are embedded in schools for the entire school year, becoming an essential part of the fabric of learning and support.
