Loudoun County Public Schools is helping parents take a more active role in helping their children with everything from anxiety to bullying to thoughts of suicide.
The school district is paying $433,000 for 18 months of services from ParentGuidance.org, which offers a wide range of tools to help families navigate mental health challenges facing children.
LCPS Student Mental Health Services Director Jennifer Evans learned about ParentGuidance.org about a year ago and realized LCPS parents would benefit. She said it bridges the gap between school-based services and formal therapy intervention that many kids might not need.
