Keri Miller, Social Worker

MISS MILLER - SOCIAL WORKER

 “Taft School has a social worker who provides services to the students.  Services that the social worker provides include counseling, crisis intervention, support groups, and connections to local resources.  The social worker meets with some students on a regular basis, but is also available to all the students in the building to assist with any issue a child may be experiencing throughout their school day.  Taft School also has a BRIDGES program.  BRIDGES is a program that is provided by the Center for Family Services.  The purpose of the BRIDGES program is to provide mental health support to students in order to improve educational success.  BRIDGES staff members are all Masters level professionals such as counselors, social workers, and psychologists.  BRIDGES staff will come into the school and work with students on a weekly basis, at no cost.  The social worker and BRIDGES work together closely in serving the emotional and social needs of our students. 

If you have any questions regarding social work services at Taft school, please contact Keri Miller at 815-838-0408, ext.137”
