Improving Access to Mental Health Support for Rural Students at KUSD.

The Challenge:

Kelseyville Unified School District (KVUSD) discovered a rise in mental health challenges following the pandemic shutdown. Being in a rural area, they had a unique set of challenges, one of which was limited access to health professionals.

The Solution:

The district turned to Gaggle Therapy and Coaching services to alleviate accessibility issues for their students in an effort to treat them more effectively. Gaggle Therapy has proved to be a game changer for KVUSD students and families, particularly for those who had no access to counseling. Students who are in need can receive support almost immediately.

The Results:

Eliminating barriers that traditional in-person therapy brings—like cost, insurance, waitlists, and availability of providers—the district was able to provide access to immediate help for struggling students.
