The province will invest $5 million to put more mental health workers in schools, representing a 50% hike in the grant funding. The expansion will add 15 more programs to serve a up to 100,000 K-12 students, up from the 65,000 children and youth who use them now. Alberta Health spends $10.6 million annually to fund school-based mental health programs, including the Strength, Tolerance, Attitude and Resilience (STAR) program. Some of the programs serve students at multiple schools. School districts will be invited to apply for the grant from Alberta Health Services.
