CASA Classroom Coming to BRSD
In partnership with the Government of Alberta, community partners and school divisions, CASA Mental Health has committed to delivering mental health care in classrooms. CASA Classrooms address the need for services closer to students by bridging a child’s mental health and school needs. In CASA Classrooms, students receive individual and group therapy, psychiatric care, medication and schooling according to individual student needs.
This February, a new CASA Classroom will open at Daysland School in the Battle River School Division, available to students in grades 7-10 through an application process.
A mental health team and a teacher will work together to support students during their regular school day. For more information, contact your school administrator or visit the CASA Mental Health Website. CASA also hosts information sessions on the first Tuesday and last Thursday of each month; information on these sessions is also available on the website.
