This link is designed to be a helpful guide for families, offering resources available at American Academy, within Douglas County, and for you to use at home. Topics include medical care, emergency assistance, psychiatric assessments, grief support, housing services, legal issues, substance abuse, suicide prevention, a directory of therapists and counselors, and more—supporting your family’s well-being and peace of mind.
We’ve also included practical tools and conversation guides to help you talk with your child about school safety in a reassuring and age-appropriate way.
Please note that American Academy does not endorse any specific organization or service listed. We encourage you to research and interview providers to ensure they’re the right fit for your family. If you’d like more tailored recommendations—specific to your child’s age, needs, or location—your student’s school counselor is always available to help.
