​
The Educator Preparation Programs Department has laun​ched the
Mental & Behavioral Health and Apprenticeships (MBHA) ​program (formerly School-Based Mental Health and Wellness Pathways) branch in order to serve º¬Ðß²ÝÉçÇø districts with the increasing demands of establishing school-based mental health and wellness programs to meet the needs of students and families.
In order to better support and serve school districts, we established the Mental Health & Wellness Professional Learning Network (MHW-PLN).
MHW-PLN Goals
The goals of this MHW-PLN are as follows:
- ​â¶Ä‹â€‹Gather input and assess the needs of º¬Ðß²ÝÉçÇø districts in school-based mental health and wellness.
- Provide an opportunity to share best practices, resources, state policies, strategies and funding opportunities to meet the needs of school districts wishing to establish school-based mental health and wellness programs.
- Provide a forum with opportunities to hear from experts in the field: medical billing, youth health & wellness, LCAP development and behavioral health.
We invite
administrators and wellness team leaders from all º¬Ðß²ÝÉçÇø Office of Education districts and other county of education offices as well as grantees to join the MHW-PLN to learn, network, and share the best practice with colleagues.
Meeting Dates
The following are the meeting dates when the MHW-PLN is scheduled for the 2024-25 school year, via Zoom:
