        In March 2020, the Alabama Legislature provided requirements (HB341) for school districts to employ a mental health services coordinator, based on the recommendations of the representatives, and it was signed into law by Governor Kay Ivey in March 2020. During this session, research was shown that interventions conducted by comprehensive school-based mental health services had been associated with enhanced academic performance, decreased need for special education, fewer disciplinary encounters, increased engagement with school, and elevated rates of graduation.
         
        The goal of Jacksonville City Schools Mental Health Services is to provide the necessary support and interventions in a timely manner to ensure that a student's needs are being met.
