Community Support & Wellness Resources

Community resources play an important role in supporting student success both inside and outside the classroom. The resources listed below are available to assist students and/or their families who may be experiencing psychological, emotional, social and/or behavioral issues or who want or need additional support during their time at Western Suffolk BOCES. Western Suffolk BOCES Postsecondary Programs encourages students to take advantage of these services whenever additional support is needed to help achieve their academic and career goals. Resources are provided for informational purposes and may be updated periodically.

If a student is experiencing a psychological emergency that is life threatening or involves imminent danger (risk of harm to self or others), contact 9-1-1 for immediate assistance.
