What is Mending Matters?
We are a non-profit organization that collaborates with school districts to provide mental health and behavioral health services to schools. 
 
What does Mending Matters do?
We work directly with school staff to ensure ALL students are safe and supported. We offer FREE onsite individual and group support for students. We also present classroom workshops on a variety of subjects like coping skills, communication, motivation, vaping, and substance-use. 
 
Where is Mending Matters located?
We are in the brand new ECV administration building with the principal, vice principals, and counselors. Look for the Mending Matters logo on the 2nd floor!!
 
When does Mending Matters offer services?
We generally offer services during ECV school hours, 7:30am - 3pm. Students are often referred to us by school staff, but students can also seek support on their own. Simply walk into the office and ask to speak with a Mending Matters staff member. *Due to COVID-19, we are currently offering telehealth/virtual services. 
 
Who is on the Mending Matters team?
Each member of the Mending Matters team has a Master's degree, is clinically trained, and specifically certified to provide mental health services on school campuses.
