Enhancing Mental Health at SSFUSD
South San Francisco Unified School District (SSFUSD) fosters a culture that promotes the health, safety, and well-being of students, parents and staff. In an effort to continuously support this commitment, the district has partnered with Daybreak Health. Wellness Counselors are placed at each secondary school along with mental health staff provided through YMCA Youth Services Bureau at elementary and secondary schools.
Daybreak Health
Daybreak Health partners with youth, families, and schools to create personalized, easily accessible, and affordable mental health programs.
At SSFUSD, Daybreak Health has organized free webinars throughout the year to help parents better understand what kind of developmental and behavioral changes their children might be going through and how best to support them.
Below are two copies of a presentation—one in English and one in Spanish—that contain all of the information and resources shared during a recent webinar.
A recording of the Understanding Changes in Your Child's Behavior webinar is also available to view by using the following passcode: 3AKPA2%3.
