We really see parents as partners to this process and we know that in order for this child to really be successful in whatever services we would put in place, we need parents to be involved.
Imagine being a student today, juggling self-esteem issues, peer pressure, academic stress, and the complexities of growing up. It's a lot to handle. Thankfully, the Student Assistance Program (SAP) is here to help. In this episode of 'Your Bridge to Addiction Resources', Tina George from Caron Treatment Centers chats with Yvonne Stroman about how SAP operates within Berks County schools to support students facing these challenges.
Tina explains that every school has its own SAP team, tailored to meet the unique needs of their students. Referrals can come from schools, families, or anyone concerned about a student's well-being. The program offers various services, including support groups and nicotine cessation assessments, and collaborates closely with parents and educators. If needed, students can also be referred for treatment.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding how SAP is making a difference in the lives of young people in Berks County.
