The Safe Schools/Healthy Students
Initiative, through its collaboration with community partners and
contractors, seeks to accomplish the following objectives:
· Create a safe school environment.
· Reduce and prevent substance abuse and violence.
· Increase access to mental health services for students and families.
· Provide early childhood psycho-social and emotional development programs.
· Improve the connection between school and community through improved school attendance, academic achievement, and parent involvement.
