During the 2015/2016 school year, Gracepoint provided psychiatric, respite, counseling, and wrap-around services for approximately 158 E/BD students (Pre-K – High School) and families. We had a full-time program supervisor, two full-time therapists, a full-time case manager, and a therapeutic mentor serving students and families at two school sites.  The therapists provided individual, family and group therapy to students and their families, and helped to provide referrals to other resources within the community.  They work collaboratively with the school teams on behavior and mental health for students with disabilities.  When students transition from an E/BD placement back to a less restrictive environment or a new school, the therapists follow them to assist in making the change a positive experience.

In addition, counseling services are also provided to students with disabilities by the district’s School Social Work and School Psychology Departments.
