Student  Services

This section of the framework addresses the role of school psychologists, mental health workers and social workers assigned to schools. Special education, usually considered to be the major component of student services, has been discussed earlier in the section on programs that focus on students with disabilities and special needs. Most services include foster care, respite daycare for abused youth and crisis management services.
