Overview

School Linked Services (SLS) provides students, children, and families with school-based coordinated services to address needs and wellbeing gaps of families through a community participatory approach. SLS Coordinators, located at the school district or a school site, develop partnership with schools, public agencies and community based organization in Santa Clara County to improve protective factors (e.g., family relationship), decrease risk-factors (e.g., behavioral and emotional problems), enhance service accessibility and resource linkage, and to support children’s success in school and in life.

In partnership with Santa Clara County’s Behavioral Health Services Department (BHSD), Santa Clara County Office of Education developed the Service Link web application to provide SLS coordinators with an efficient system to track student referrals to services, monitor if the students were successfully “linked” to a service(s), and log events and series they offer to schools within their district.
