Foundation Gets Boost From City
The Noblesville Schools Education Foundation is proud to announce the expansion of its Mental Health Support Fund thanks to $50,000 in support from the City of Noblesville.
The NSEF Mental Health Support Fund is a vital resource helping students and staff in Noblesville Schools access additional professional counseling services. With increasing rates of stress, anxiety and depression among students and staff, this initiative directly supports the well-being of the Noblesville Schools community
“When we ask school leaders where NSEF funding can best support them, mental health resources consistently rank as a top area of need,” said Adriann Young of NSEF. “By eliminating financial barriers to accessing professional care, we’re ensuring that everyone in our school community can receive the full mental health support to ultimately support their success in school.”
“We’re thankful to the City of Noblesville and NSEF for their support of our students and staff,” added Julie Thacker, executive director of student services for Noblesville Schools. “Our community is uniquely fortunate to have a partnership like this and this invaluable support allows students and staff members to access the mental health provider of their choice and receive reimbursement for those services.”
Mental health support represents one of NSEF’s most impactful programs and provides the following benefits:
- Individual reimbursement support to help with the cost of external counseling and transportation to mental health services
- Wellness initiatives for staff
- Support for multilingual counseling initiatives
Over the years, the demand for this support has increased, and the City of Noblesville has pledged $50,000 to support the Mental Health Support Fund to aid in sustaining this program for students and teachers.
“The Mental Health Support Fund aligns with the mission and focus of our administration to support the health and well-being of our community, which includes prioritizing mental health,” said Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen. “Our community is better and stronger when resources are easily accessible to all who need them. I look forward to the positive impact this fund will continue to have on our students, teachers, and the community.”
