Student Assistant Program / Care Solace

STUDENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

RUSD believes in supporting the whole child. As part of the Student Assistance Program, school sites are provided with access to a licensed family therapist referred to as a SAP Counselor. SAP Counselors provide short term individual and group counseling, connect families and students to school and community resources, conduct classroom lessons, enhance school wide PBIS systems, provide prevention services for bullying, violence, and substance abuse, and support families through meetings, support groups, and workshops. School staff may complete referrals for students to the SAP Counselor.  Students and parents may also make referrals to SAP Counseling for social-emotional concerns including recent loss, appearing depressed, behavior, bullying, displaying signs of possible substance use or abuse, inconsistent school attendance, sudden drop in grades, family conflict or turmoil, etc. For more information or to request short term counseling for your student please speak to a site administrator.
