Advancing Wellness and Resilience in Education – AWARE

Project AWARE – OSPI

Battle Ground Public Schools is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for students, families, and staff. Funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Project AWARE is a partnership between the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), Battle Ground Public Schools, Shelton School District and Marysville School District. Each district will work to:

  • Increase awareness of mental health issues among school-aged youth.
  • Provide training for school personnel, families and community members to detect and respond to mental health issues in children and young adults.
  • Connect youth and families with needed services.

These districts will work together over the next five years to develop a comprehensive, coordinated, and integrated program to advance wellness and resilience in education settings for school-aged youth.
