Our students attend an urban elementary school and come from very diverse backgrounds. All of our students receive both free breakfast and lunch. We have a high number of English Language Learners, students who have experienced homelessness, as well as students who receive special education services ranging from inclusion in mainstream classrooms to substantially separate classrooms. Due to the number of psychosocial stressors our students experience outside of the school environment, often times our students are unable to access the community resources they require. Therefore, as a school based counselor, I am in a position to address and support issues involving homelessness, domestic violence, substance abuse, social-emotional regulation, trauma and family based stressors on a daily basis.
