School Avoidance and Chronic Absenteeism

Navigating Through School Avoidance

In response to this growing and critical need, we are proud to introduce our School Avoidance Intervention and Learning Program (SAIL). SAIL is a comprehensive solution aimed at directly addressing school avoidance, a leading driver of chronic absenteeism. With a multifaceted approach, SAIL combines consultative planning support with therapeutic mental health programming, and high quality professional development into a focused program of change.

SAIL is designed to deliver measurable reductions in school-avoidant behavior by offering tailored interventions to support students in overcoming barriers to attendance and engagement.

OUR APPROACH:

A Multi-Tiered Strategy for K-12 Mental Health Care

We offer clinical programs, school avoidance and chronic absenteeism intervention programs,  professional learning opportunities, and consulting services to aid districts in implementing mental health best practices and establishing a comprehensive support system that meets the needs of every student.
