Crisis Intervention

Program Description:
Crisis Intervention is designed to meet the individual needs of students who are in crisis with appropriate intervention services. The overall goal is to maintain as normal a school day as possible. The project is designed to minimize the glorification, sensationalizing, and over memorializing of crisis events. All intervention personnel have a minimum of 10 hours of crisis specific intervention training.
