Mental Health Reminder from Jessica O'Muireadhaigh, Director of Mental Health & Counseling
I would like to remind APS families that everyone is carrying a heavy load, so please be kind to yourselves. This is a tough time, and even more difficult when you are alone or feel alone. Resources and support are available, and we can help connect families to those resources. For connections to support at school, you can contact the social worker(s), counselor(s), or school psychologist(s) at your student's school. Here is a link to those supports: https://mentalhealth.aurorak12.org/home#h.zi0v41ezb6jr.
This Wellness in the time of COVID 19 PDF gives some good information and resources related to the pandemic.
