Alexian Brothers Behavioral Health Hospital provides community services to children, adolescents, and adults on a wide range of needs. The list of services that are provided are listed at the bottom of this post. This post focuses mostly on school refusal for children and adolescents since it is a very widespread and common issue in schools. Parents are a very important part of helping their child when it comes to school refusal in order to ensure that parents do not fall into the student's ritual of not attending school or succumb to their excuses. By informing parents of these strategies listed below, they can learn how to help their child when school refusal occurs. There is also a program for school refusal that Alexian Brothers offers which included family therapy, a school liaison during the transition, and looking into other issues or disorders that could be co-occuring with their school refusal, and a 30 day follow up with the school and family is implemented.
