School Consultation
HRS provides a wide range of consultation services
to schools in Wellesley, Weston, and Wayland, and
throughout Greater Boston. HRS staff meet regularly
with teachers, guidance counselors, special educators,
and administrators, among others, to help them in
their work with students and with one another. Consultants
also respond when there is a crisis at a school.
And they offer seminars and workshops for educators
on a variety of topics in education and mental health.
For HRS, consultation is a key part of our effort
to prevent and reduce mental illness—an opportunity
to extend mental health expertise to a wide spectrum
of the community by enhancing the skills of educators,
whom we have always seen as being on the front lines
of mental health. For educators, our consultation
helps them in their efforts to support the growth
and well-being of children and to enhance their
own professional growth, as well.
