Parent/Guardian Information How to Access Mental Health Services
AB 2022, Pupil Mental Health Services: School Notification
In accordance with AB 2022, the Nevada City School District Special Education Services wants to ensure that parents, guardians, and students are informed about resources available for anyone who believes they are in a mental health crisis. We also encourage parents/guardians and students to talk with any adult in the school district if they are concerned about other students and possible mental health needs. Take all threats of suicide seriously.
