Do you often question, "How Could I Better Support My Child's Behaviors?" If you find yourself questioning whether your child should be able to handle distressing situations better, or if your child finds it difficult to have consistent healthy interactions with themselves, adults, or peers; consider utilizing Benton Community School Districts' partnership with Tanager Place Behavioral Health Services. 

Together, we will work on strategies that allow you and your child to address the root causes of behavioral difficulties and build meaningful social connections. Through skill-based learning and interactive in-school sessions, we delve into emotion identification and communication, self-awareness, frustration tolerance, social skills, and much more.  Individually tailored behavioral sessions are held during your child's school day, to support your child in their learning because we understand the need for support like this to help kids learn, grow and succeed in their school environment. Benton Community Schools and Tanager Place hope that by providing services in the school environment we can provide better access to assist families and kids in being successful learners and healthy individuals.
