School Social Worker

School social workers are advocates who help students achieve academic success by linking the home, school, and community. School social workers provide support services to remove barriers to student success. School social workers are itinerant, as they work with different students for different problems at different times in different places. These support services include intervention, crisis support, mental health counseling, addressing issues of non-attendance and truancy, and behavioral assessments to name a few.
