Carpenter High to offer the Mental Health Capacity Building program in fall
Carpenter High School has been selected to offer Mental Health Capacity Building (MHCB) in Schools program.
“It’s really an evidence-based approach to improving mental health and wellbeing of the students,” said Jennifer Wlliamson, deputy director with Northwest School Division.
“What my understanding of the project or the program is, is we are going to be looking at is hiring two additional positions to help support this initiative,” she added.
“It’s going to be positive mental health promotion, prevention, early identification and intervention. That’s really the four main pillars of what this program is aiming to achieve.”
