Da Vinci Design

Dear Da Vinci Families,

We are excited to announce a new partnership with Hazel Health, an innovative service now available to support the mental health needs of all Da Vinci students in grades TK-12. As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive care and resources, Hazel Health offers access to licensed healthcare professionals and services, both at school and from home.

What is Hazel Health?

Hazel Health connects students with a mental health counselor for virtual visits directly from school, or the comfort of your home, at no cost to families. Hazel Health ensures that your child receives timely care for mental health support.

How it Works

• School-Based Care: Students and families can work with the Da Vinci Counselors to set up appointments for teletherapy at designated times from campus. Students will be supervised in a safe and privatized space for therapy sessions.
  • If your student has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and there is a concern or question about how this general education offered service would be incorporated into their school day with their current special education programming and services, please contact/consult with Dr. Lynn Rodriguez, Director of Special Education to answer any questions or seek clarification (lrodriguez@davincischools.org). Otherwise, families with an IEP or Section 504 plan should reach out to their case manager/counselor to meaningfully incorporate this service during your day.
• At-Home Care: Families can schedule telehealth visits from home. Appointments are accessible and can be done on your own schedule between 7am-7pm, Monday through Friday.

Services Provided by Hazel Health:

Mental Health Counseling: Hazel Health provides support for anxiety, depression, grief, and other mental health concerns.

Why Hazel Health?

• Convenient Access: No need for appointments or travel time. Support is provided virtually when your child needs it.
• No Cost to Families: Services are free for all students at Da Vinci Schools, ensuring that every family has access to care.
• Confidential & Secure: All services are confidential, and student privacy is a top priority.

Getting Started

We are thrilled to bring this important resource to our Da Vinci community and are confident that Hazel Health will help us keep students happy, healthy, and ready to learn.

Thank you for your continued partnership in supporting our students’ well-being.

Best regards,

Erin Whalen
