This week we are joined by Sarah Dinklage, the founding Director of Rhode Island Student Assistance Services (RISAS). The RI Student Assistance Program has grown from a pilot in seven high schools to over 70 middle and high schools in 32 Rhode Island school districts. RISAS provides a range of evidence-based programs designed to prevent substance use and promote mental health in youth regardless of income level, cultural context, or immigration status. We sit down with Sarah to learn more about the amazing work being done in schools across Rhode Island and the resources available for students.
