The support line is part of the BIE Behavioral Health and Wellness Program, according to a Feb. 1 news release. Callers will have two options when calling — around-the-clock crisis support or receiving information on non-crisis virtual counseling services.
The program, which is based on the American School Counselor Association’s standards for school-based counseling, will also offer on-site crisis support at bureau-funded schools and programs in 2024.
At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
