Linda B.Local ResidentI am so grateful for the Andrew County Health and Safety Coalition. They have supported us with so many valuable resources to help enhance our school counseling program. Providing us with our elementary classroom guidance curriculum has been a game changer. The young students I work with in the Kindergarten-2nd grade levels absolutely love the lessons I bring them, and the characters that are part of those lessons. The curriculum is fun, engaging and spot on with our state counseling standards. Kids are learning about creating healthy lifestyles across the board; socially, emotionally, physically and academically. I am incredibly thankful for the coalition and their support and care they continue to provide us with.
Abby WinderSchool Counselor & Teacher | Minnie Cline ElementaryThe Andrew County Health & Safety Coalition has been an invaluable partner in bringing new and engaging prevention presentations to our students. Their suicide prevention presentation was, by far, the most impactful and engaging session I’ve ever experienced—and our students felt the same.
Alyssa GreenSchool Counselor | Savannah R-III High SchoolPartnering with the Andrew County Health & Safety Coalition board has significantly increased my awareness and knowledge about what is available in Andrew County for connecting residents to resources. The Coalition gives me a place to serve and meet individuals who may need my services as the Youth Behavioral Health Liaison. It aligns with the mission of my employment and the goals of my life in assisting individuals in marginalized populations.
