Building stronger social and emotional supports for students
Supporting Expansion and Enhancement of K-12 School-Based Social, Emotional Supports (SEEKS SES) is an initiative that helps school districts strengthen the social, emotional, and behavioral supports students need to succeed. Funded by the Allegheny County Health Department and managed by the Allegheny Intermediate Unit, SEEKS SES provides resources to address the lasting impacts of trauma, behavior, and mental health challenges while helping build a sustainable pipeline of professionals to support students and schools across the region.
