Advisor & Advocate

I have been a K-12 school counselor for 20 years and counting. I am employed at the Kimball School District in South Dakota. We began Networks of Support in the 2021 school year. I am impressed with how well the students have taken on the leadership roles and have grown in the program. The students enjoy the time together and look forward to our “Prime Time” days. I really appreciate the research, the collaboration, and the fun supplies. It has really driven our kids to connect and support each other throughout the year. Each year our program grows with more students wanting to be “Prime Time” leaders for our Networks of Support program!

Outcomes:

Groups became increasingly unified, exhibiting a shared commitment to healthy norms, and actively encouraged peers in help-seeking behaviors, fostering a supportive environment where every member feels valued and understood.
Social Network Health's interactive training fostered an even more dynamic relationship network. Within these groups, vulnerable members can draw strength from adaptive members, leading to more changes in who they identify as valued connections.
Schools have reported significant improvements in various metrics, including increased daily attendance, higher graduation rates, enhanced identification of Trusted Adults, greater willingness to seek help, and improved connectedness among students and staff. Additionally, school disciplinary issues have notably declined, reflecting the program's positive impact on the school climate and student well-being.
