School-Linked Mental Health Services is a partnership with community providers to offer mental health treatment and services at the Hayfield school site. These services are available to all students in the district and are intended to be flexible to meet the needs of students and their families. Grant funds may be available to cover the costs of services.
The goal for School-Linked Mental Health Services is to reduce barriers for students in order for them to receive comprehensive mental health services. These barriers may include: transportation, financial restrictions, mistrust and/or stigma, waiting lists and intake processes, stress, and/or scheduling conflicts. Mental health services provided in a school setting have a greater potential to impact the learning environment and positively increase educational outcomes.
Services that may be provided include: intake interview; diagnostic assessment; individual, group or family psychotherapy; and individual or family skills work.
Services are covered by the individual and family health insurance company. If costs are a barrier, SLMH Services may be covered by grant funding. Families and students who are interested in accessing these services are asked to contact the school at 507-477-3235 to speak with the counselor (Kathy Connelly) or social worker (Jamie Hansen) to start the referral process.
