School Connections
The Link Counseling Center, a non-profit organization, opened its doors in 1971 with one mission: to be a refuge of healing, of clarity, or inspiration for those who come seeking help with the trauma, loss and pain of difficult life experiences. Throughout the decades, The Link has supported many Atlanta metropolitan schools.
The Link provides support to students, teachers and administration when a school is facing a crisis or loss.
The Link also provides grief education for classroom teachers and school counselors.
The Link Counseling Center recognizes the important role that schools play in
the emotional health of their students.
