Description¶

With Project Cal-Well support, PUSD established grant-funded Wellness Centers in partnership with Butte County Behavioral Health, first at Paradise High School in 2021/22, then Ridgeview High School in 2022/23, and Paradise Junior High School in 2024/25. They "serve as accessible hubs for essential services, including mental health supports and access to community aid (e.g., food, housing support)." The district plans additional sites and commits to Wellness Centers on every school campus.
