Why Go?

If you or someone you know is having difficulty with family relationships, school problems, or parenting problems, then the Team is willing to help. the Team offers advice, suggestions, good listening and referral information on a wide variety of topics. The focus is on helping entire families cope with difficult situations in an effective manner.  The service is free and confidential.

Parents and students need to go to Team when there are initial concerns. The purpose of Team is to intervene and problem solve as early as possible before a problem becomes a crisis.
