School counselors, psychologists, social workers, and licensed mental health counselors are among the most essential, and most under-supported, professionals in any school building. The NYSMHA Collective Care Team PD Package delivers a full year of coordinated, evidence-based professional development designed specifically for the people doing this work every day.
The program begins with a PD Needs Assessment to ensure all programming reflects your team's real priorities. From there, three In-Person Roundtables bring practitioners together for regional convenings featuring national speakers, evidence-based sessions, and Continuing Education Units (CEUs). Four Virtual Trainings, tailored to district-identified needs, provide focused learning without pulling staff from their buildings. Monthly Job-Alike Coffee Chats connect counselors, psychologists, and social workers with regional peers in the same role, reducing isolation and strengthening the collegial networks that support long-term retention. The package also includes the L-SCET, an evidence-based evaluation tool co-created with administrators to provide a reliable, role-specific framework for evaluating school-based mental health professionals, something standard teacher evaluation tools simply weren't built to do.
Everything is coordinated by NYSMHA, so districts get a complete, turnkey program without the administrative burden of piecing it together independently.
