RBHI Behavioral Health Screening

The district partners with the Rural Behavioral Health Institute's (RHBI) Screening Linked to Care Program (SLTC). The SLTC is a digital screening platform that identifies students struggling with suicidality, depression symptoms, and anxiety symptoms. For students who report these symptoms, RBHI provides free mental health therapists to meet with students that day to help them create a safety plan and make recommendations. RBHI also offers free case management for any student who needs help accessing resources.
