Our Training and Outreach specialist, Tara, had a great time this weekend at the NJ4S Burlington County Spring Community Resource Fair. It was nice seeing so many familiar faces, and meeting new ones! Thank you to Ometa and her team for putting this together.

This time of year is filled with so many exciting events. Where will we see you next?!

May is Mental Health Awareness Month — and it's a good time to ask: are we giving students support, or just awareness?

Good intentions matter. But students in crisis need more than a poster in the hallway. They need trained staff, accessible resources, and systems built to catch them before they fall.

This month, let's move the conversation from awareness to action. What does real mental health support look like in your school? 👇

May is Mental Health Awareness Month-a time to reflect on the students in our schools who are quietly carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral challenges that no district alone can address.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month — a time to recognize the incredible professionals who support the emotional wellness, growth, and success of our students every single day.

First Children School is incredibly grateful for our Mental Health & Wellness Support Team and the compassionate work they do each day for our students, families, and staff.

At First Children Services, we know that strong student support starts with strong teams.

Yesterday, our in-house training expert, Tara, spent time with our team at the Transitions program in Cherry Hill, providing valuable training and practical insight to help strengthen the work happening every day with students and families. While Tara regularly provides professional development and training to our district partners, these internal opportunities are just as meaningful to our own staff.

As the needs of students continue to grow more complex, we remain committed to ensuring our educational and therapeutic teams feel prepared, supported, and equipped to meet those needs with confidence, compassion, and expertise.

Investing in our people means investing in better outcomes for students. 💙🧡
