Takiya and our school-based mental health program
Watch this video to learn how our school-based mental health program, made possible by the support of our donors, is helping kids like Takiya.
For Takiya, kindergarten was rough, plagued by daily emotional outbursts and social struggles.
With counseling through Children’s Wisconsin’s school-based mental health program, Takiya got the care she needed just down the hall from her classroom. Now starting 2nd grade, she is growing and thriving.
