My Project

The needs of students has drastically changed and developed over the past few years, especially since COVID and quarantine. The increase in students that benefit from support services in schools has created a need for more tools and resources for counselors. Oftentimes these resources are limited, unfortunately!

This cart was thoughtfully curated using my 15 years of experience as a School Social Worker to provide support for students with a range of needs and diagnosis's.

This includes students on the Autism Spectrum, Attention Deficit Disorder, Learning differences, anxiety, depressed, OCD and ODD to just name a few.

These will be used in conjunction with group and individual therapy sessions to improve the outcomes for students in need!
