school staff satisfaction

"Going from families who are saying they can’t find a therapists for their child, to 'here’s the referral link to the intake, go ahead and schedule that', and by the end of the week they’ve already met with somebody. That was never something I experienced, even before Covid. For our students, to be able to quickly obtain these services, you can see it on the students after just a few weeks. Their comfort, their ability to use coping strategies, that has been a gift."
Counselor
"Our partnership with Daybreak Health has proven to be instrumental in a short amount of time. Daybreak Health understands our mission of supporting students…We look forward to building, growing, and moving our relationship with Daybreak Health further as we support all students."
