The Prevention/Intervention Program places counselors in middle schools and high
schools in both Boulder Valley and St. Vrain Valley School Districts. These counselors,
referred to as "interventionists," provide:
- Short-term counseling to students and their families.
- Assessment and referral for students in need of long-term counseling or other
services.
- Crisis intervention to deal with emotional traumas, such as violent
incidents or the death
of a fellow student or teacher.
- Life skills and self-concept training for students.
- School-wide training in assets development.
- Training and support for youth leadership and peer mentor programs.
Staff is trained to address substance abuse; depression/suicide; family and peer conflict;
runaway and homelessness; grief and loss; interpersonal relationships; and school issues
such as expulsion, dropout, intimidation, and harassment.
This program has received a
Governor's Award for its collaborative community effort.
