Handle With Care is a program that enables local school districts to be notified when local police encounter a student at a Traumatic scene, so the school staff and mental healthcare providers can then provide support right away for the student.
ABOUT
FAMILY TREATMENT PROGRAM
In collaboration with Hidalgo County, McAllen ISD and we have implemented Handle With Care and created a process to better serve our students in need.
When our designated staff receives the information from McAllen Police Department, following confidentiality procedures, within 24 hours our campus Counselor or Social Workers will be aware of the situation, and will offer Mental Health or Counseling services to student and its family if needed.
