- School-Based Behavioral Health: (Performed by Outpatient Therapist from a Community Provider)
- Students receive the same individualized outpatient treatment in the school setting that they would in clinical sites in the community.
- Support Groups: (Co-facilitated by Prevention Specialist from county Prevention Provider)
