A nonprofit offered 5 NH school districts free counseling. Saying yes was ‘a no-brainer.’

A New Hampshire nonprofit is providing free online behavioral health counseling to students in five school districts—but with a twist. The districts must have their students help implement the program among their peers, turning them into ambassadors for mental health support. The initiative, funded entirely by Safe Schools New Hampshire, aims to expand access while fostering student leadership in wellness efforts. School leaders describe the offer as an easy decision, given the growing demand for mental health resources in schools.

The districts were offered three years of online behavioral health counseling for their students, paid for by local nonprofit Safe Schools New Hampshire. The catch? Their students had to help roll the program out to their peers. The post A nonprofit offered 5 NH school districts free counseling.
