LA Unified’s Student & Family Wellness Hotline
 
LA Unified’s Student and Family Wellness Hotline is available to students, families, and staff of LAUSD, during regular school days, Monday-Friday, 8:00 am-5:00 pm. It is staffed by personnel from Student Health and Human Services, including PSWs, PSAs, Nurses, and Healthy Start Navigators. Support is available in English and Spanish. The hotline provides support with basic needs such as accessing food, school enrollment and immunizations, health insurance and mental health referrals.
 
Mental health support is available for anyone needing Psychological First Aid, mental health consultation, or linkage to mental health services. Mental health staff are available to support school site personnel with questions regarding how to support their students.  Additionally, they are able to provide risk assessments by telephone and work collaboratively with LA School Police to respond to a student’s home if further evaluation is warranted. Services are available in multiple languages.
