Integrate school-based CHWs to support students and their families.
The KanAWARE project was formed to address escalating student behavioral health needs in the southeast Kansas corridor–eleven counties representing Kansas’ communities most at-risk for poverty, violence, trauma, substance use, and mental health concerns. This program involves many partners across the state of Kansas including Kansas Department of Education, Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services, Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas, Four County Mental Health, University of Kansas Medical Center, Coffeyville Schools, Fort Scott Schools, Pittsburg Schools, and Greenbush Interlocal.
This program is funded by SAMHSA through the Project AWARE (Advancing Wellness and Resiliency in Education) Grant # H79SM086348.
