Salinas Union School High School District: Wellness Centers

Students will have the opportunity to develop a range of skills related to school social work while working directly with middle school-aged youth from diverse socioeconomic, cultural, racial, and ethnic backgrounds, including LGBTQ youth and youth in specialized education programs. Students will be a part of a middle school Wellness Center and its multidisciplinary team; the student will benefit from attending team meetings, staff meetings, and district-level PBIS training. Students will gain experience working with middle school-aged youth and for those students enrolled in the PPCS program, additional experience at the high school level (as a secondary placement).
