Assistance available for behavioral health telehealth services in schools

12/4/2023

BroadbandOhio is searching for 10 school districts interested in implementing school-based behavioral telehealth services. 
 
In the U.S., one youth in six aged 6-17 experiences a mental health disorder each year. In Ohio, one-in-three students report challenges with anxiety. Recognizing the need for school-based behavioral health services, BroadbandOhio partnered with Our Community Health Information Network to support district administrators in planning telehealth programs in their schools. 
 
Interested district representatives may contact broadbandohio@development.ohio.gov.
