We’re committed to breaking down barriers to mental health care. That’s why we’ve partnered with Hazel to offer bilingual therapy in over 30 languages, ensuring all students at Riverside can connect with a licensed therapist who understands their culture and language.

In therapy, your child will gain essential tools to succeed in school and in life, such as:

✓ Improving communication
✓ Building confidence
✓ Enhancing coping skills
✓ Fostering healthy relationships

All students—regardless of immigration status—can access virtual therapy at no cost to families.

It’s easy to get started: getstarted.hazel.co
