I do work for the school discussed therefore, I may be biased in my rating. However, as someone who has provided mental health services for many secondary schools I think the benefits of SFBT is not limited to alternative schools. Also, Garza truly is a special institution especially due to the impact of SFBT.

Lots of good ideas for those serving in alternative education settings. Focusing on creating partnerships with students and families. Helpful case studies.
