MU to provide mental health support to Boone County schools

BOONE COUNTY - Boone County School leaders and University of Missouri research faculty will sign a memorandum to increase mental health support for local schools and families Friday afternoon.
According to a news release, various MU faculty who direct the Family Access Center of Excellence (FACE) plan to outline services that will support about 24,000 school-aged children and families.
FACE'S lead investigator Aaron Thompson said bringing the center and Boone County schools together is an opportunity to have important conversations advocating for the well-being of children in schools.
"These are our kids, this is our community," Thompson said. "This is a huge need in every community and I think in particular in the past year, we've seen this growing need."
