Partnership With Children Inc

Comprehensive school-based mental health services:we placed masters-level clinical social workers into 11 public and charter schools in nyc's most under-resourced communities. Our staff are based full-time in the schools, providing mental health services that include individual and group counseling, classroom interventions, case management, and home visits and are grounded in social-emotional learning (sel), trauma-informed care, and neuroscience. Our programs increase student wellness, attendance, on-task behavior, and achievement levels; improve teachers' classroom management skills and increase their time spent on instruction; reduce violence and suspensions; and engage parents and families.

Out-of-school-time programs:partnership with children runs out-of-school time (ost) programs to increase student engagement and school connectedness, increase social-emotional skills, increase college readiness, and improve relationships with peers and adults. We direct after-school, summer and extended school day programs at 7 schools where we also provide comprehensive programming during the school day, extending students' social-emotional learning outside the traditional school day and classroom setting.

Art education:pwc's arts education department, formerly known as the center for arts education, provides arts programming as a potent complement to pwc's comprehensive support model, fully aligning with our student-centered, whole-child approach. This programming includes residencies and workshops tailored to the needs of each collaborating school. Programming often connects to material being explored in other content areas, and can be delivered in-school, after-school, on saturdays, and during summer. We also offer a career development program that provides high school seniors with career readiness training and internships in creative industries across the city.
