The Center offers a no-fee consultation service that is available to all students and families who live in the Alden School District. The hope of these services is to serve and collaborate with families, school professionals, and others to increase student growth and learning while removing social, emotional, financial and other non-academic barriers.  

Services that the Family Center offers:

• Health, wellness and educational resources, presentations and information to individuals and families in the Alden community.

• Short-term mental health services for families, children and youth that includes addressing communication barriers, divorce/separation, domestic violence, substance abuse and behavior concerns.

• Easier access to community resources and agencies.

• Access to emergency food and clothing supply.

The Family Center is open during the school year
