Community School Liaisons

The Community School Liaison program is an innovative program highlighting a partnership between Ashland County School District and the Ashland County Mental Health and Recovery Board. School is an important lifeline for a student, sometimes the only connection between a child’s family and the community resources they need to thrive. Liaisons provide behavioral health support and linkage to the students throughout the Ashland County public school district.

Services are offered at NO COST to the school or families, thanks to Mental Health levy funding.

When we experience abuse or neglect it is easy to believe we cannot overcome what happened. That is not true. You are resilient and can overcome and recover. The truth is we are all loveable, forgivable, and changeable.

Tools for Positive Mental Health

Joseph Campbell writes, “We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy.” To grow in joy, take time every day to count your blessings.

Sense of Awe and Wonder

Awe is the feeling we get in the presence of something vast that challenges our understanding of the world, like looking up at millions of stars in the night sky.

Appleseed staff came into our company and provided the employees with a training on reasonable suspicion. The training was very informative and the presenter was able to answer many questions. Appleseed's focus to educate our community about substance abuse and mental health made the training session more meaningful. I greatly appreciate the service that Appleseed provided to our company and would highly recommend this training to other businesses. Thanks Appleseed!
