Supporting Student Wellness

We are excited to share a new initiative to enhance mental health and wellness support for all students in the Paso Robles Joint Unified School District. Through the California Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI) Fee Schedule, our schools can now access additional funding to provide vital services, such as individual and group counseling, crisis intervention, and stress-management workshops, directly on campus. This program ensures that all students, regardless of insurance coverage or immigration status, can receive support at no out-of-pocket cost to families; there are no co-pays, no deductibles, and no impact on your insurance premiums. To help our district secure this state funding, we may ask you to provide your child's insurance information and a signed consent form. Please rest assured that your family's privacy is protected under strict FERPA and HIPAA laws, and choosing not to share insurance details will never prevent your child from receiving care. For more information, please visit http://cybhi.slocoe.org/
