Social/Emotional Wellness

School counselors recognize and respond to the need for mental health services that promote social/emotional wellness and development for all students. School counselors advocate for the mental health needs of all students by offering instruction that enhances awareness of mental health, appraisal, and advisement addressing academic, career, and social/emotional development; short-term counseling interventions; and referrals to community resources for long-term support.

If you are looking for referrals to community resources for long-term support, please consider using the Lewiston-Porter Community Resource Listing below. If you have any questions regarding community referrals, please do not hesitate to contact your child's school counselor.
