ThriveKids

ThriveKids brings essential mental health support directly into New Orleans public schools, making care accessible where students spend their days. We believe that every child deserves easy access to mental health services, regardless of their circumstances.

Our program works in two important ways. Within our partner schools, we provide hands-on mental health services and personalized case management. For all New Orleans Public School students, we simplify the process of getting help by coordinating care and managing referrals through one central system.
