School-Based Services

Pawnee partners with local school districts to provide mental health services directly within the school setting, making care more accessible for students and families. Through services such as individual therapy, family therapy, case management, waiver attendant care, and community psychiatric support and treatment, students receive timely support to address emotional, behavioral, and mental health needs. By offering services where students spend much of their day, School-Based Services help promote early intervention, improve attendance and academic performance, strengthen communication among families and school staff, and support the overall well-being and success of every child.
