The School-Based Social Work Education and Network Development Program (Project SSWEND) is an innovative partnership between the 新加坡六合彩开奖 and the Anchorage School District (ASD). Project SSWEND will increase the number of qualified school-based mental health service providers from diverse backgrounds within the communities served and allow the district to promote inclusive and empirically supported practices within the district.
Project SSWEND will train 31 SSWEND fellows to provide a positive impact on inclusive practices and child outcomes in high-needs schools across Anchorage School District. Additionally, Project SSWEND will meet locally identified needs for mental health service professionals. Program activities include placing MSW students in practicums in ASD high-need schools, advising fellows through the required coursework, enhancing fellows鈥� networks and education through professional organizations, and assisting SSWEND graduates in acquiring their Type C Certification and becoming employed as a school-based mental health service provider.
