NORTH CAROLINA | UNDER 5000 STUDENTS | GAGGLE THERAPY
Camden County Schools, a district of about 1,900 students, faced a critical gap in mental health support due to the absence of local providers. In response to rising post-pandemic needs, the district used a $100,000 state grant to launch Gaggle Therapy, offering teletherapy directly to students.
Led by Michael Reaves, Director of Student Services, the rollout emphasized school-level flexibility, strong family communication, and stigma reduction. Sessions are held at home or school based on student needs, with support from staff for logistics and registration. Gaggle Therapy now plays a key role in Camden’s broader commitment to accessible, student-centered care.
