MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT

At Maidu Virtual Charter Academy, we believe social and emotional health is equally important to academic health. We've compiled a few resources to help our students navigate various social and emotional challenges, and these are organized below by the level of urgency of the social-emotional situation.

  • RED = I am in crisis and need immediate support (see red text sections below)
  • YELLOW = I am struggling but not in need of immediate attention (see yellow text sections below)
  • GREEN = I would like additional resources to support my social/emotional health but not in any sense of urgency (see green text sections below)

MOBILE CRISIS TRIAGE TEAM

If you are in crisis, please don't wait to hear back from us! Instead, reach out to the Mobile Crisis Triage. Placer County Intake: (916) 787-8860 or (888) 886-5401.
