Upcoming Learning Session: The ABCs of School Mental Health in Wisconsin: Foundations, Framework, and Funding

Join us for this MHAP Learning Session that will provide an overview of the state framework for school mental health supports in Wisconsin. This basic overview will include foundational information on the continuum of supports available through school and in collaboration with community partners. Participants will learn about universal strategies, referral pathways, funding streams and centering youth voice. The session will provide an opportunity to share lessons-learned from communities around the state as we network in small groups.
