Lucia Mar Unified School District adds counselors at every school with Daybreak Health

Lucia Mar Unified School District faced significant challenges with rising chronic absenteeism and a growing need for accessible student mental health support following the pandemic. To address this, the district partnered with vendor Daybreak Health to implement its teletherapy program.

The solution from Daybreak Health provided middle and high school students with access to 1:1 sessions with licensed clinicians, while elementary student sessions included parents or guardians. This virtual model offered flexible scheduling, making support more accessible. As a result of its focused efforts, which included the Daybreak program, the district saw its attendance rates begin to go back up and made mental health support available at no cost to families.
