A grant will help the school provide mental health resources.

On this edition of InFocus we hear how behavioral-health provider Centerstone is making it easier for the Giant City School District to address the mental fatigue caused by the pandemic. In the form of a multi-thousand dollar grant, Giant City School District Superintendent and Principal Belinda Hills talks about how they will be able to help students, faculty, staff and families.

If you, or someone you know is in crisis, contact Centerstone's 24 hour crisis line at 855-608-3560.
