THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Escambia County Public Schools outlines use of 2026-2027 Mental Health Assistance Allocation to fund 18 direct-hire mental health counselors, 6 certified school counselors, and 1.5 contracted community counselors, plus a Mental Health Coordinator and support staff. Staffing is deployed across K-12, charter, and alternative settings to reduce ratios and increase direct services. This is relevant for clinical staffing firms, teletherapy providers, and training/PD vendors who can support future expansions, supervision, or replacement of contracted counselor capacity as funding and needs evolve.
Healthy Minds currently provides 1.5 community-based counselors for three Northend schools under this allocation.
