Community Mental Health Project
FCSD #1 is excited to announce the creation of the Community Mental Health Project. FCSD #1 was one of three districts in the state to receive a Wyoming Project AWARE (Advancing Wellness and Resiliency in Education) grant through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
This grant will allow the Community Mental Health Project to provide additional mental health services to students of FCSD #1. In addition to services offered to students, the project will offer training for FCSD #1 staff, family engagement opportunities, and community awareness programs.
In partnership with Wyoming counseling and their team of licensed counselors, the project will provide mental health services to students covering a broad range of issues such as behavioral concerns, ADHD, substance abuse, family dynamics, trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety.
We are looking forward to partnering with the community to provide these much needed services to our children. If you would like more information about the project, please contact the community mental health project manager, Edward Barnes, at (307) 332-4711, ext. 2156 or via email.
