Dear Village Community,<\/p>\n\n\n\n I am excited to let you know that Keystone Therapy and Training Services has returned to campus and will continue providing additional social-emotional support for the 2026-27 school year. Keystone is a social and behavioral health services organization providing mental health and wellness services to diverse children, families, and individuals. Keystone\u2019s school-based programming began in 2021 and now serves over 25 schools across Sonoma County. This service is at no cost<\/strong> to families or Village Charter School. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Keystone\u2019s School-Based Mental Health and Wellness Programming includes direct 1:1 support, small support groups, in the moment\/drop in support, and classroom education for students in grades TK\u201312. Within this programming, Keystone providers integrate social\u2013emotional learning, mindfulness, goal setting, and creative therapeutic approaches to help youth navigate emotions, build self-regulation, and strengthen interpersonal skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Keystone Team we will be collaborating with this year includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Andrew and Emily are planning to attend our Back to School night Wednesday, Sept 2nd and will be happy to answer questions and provide more information. Registering for Keystone services requires providing your student’s health insurance member ID; we encourage you to bring this information to Back to School night. Again, there is no co-pay or impact on insurance premiums<\/strong>; signing up costs you nothing but it helps strengthen the program and expand access for the families who need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Attached are the forms required for students to sign up for these supports. Please sign and return at your earliest convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Hard copies are in the office and can be sent home with your child. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Please let me know if you have any questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Rebecca Ivanoff, Director<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Village Charter School<\/p>\n\n\n\n
