We’ll chat about all things school attendance... why it matters, how to make mornings less stressful, and ways to set up routines that really work for your family. Megan will share helpful tips, practical strategies, and resources you can lean on, while parents and caregivers can share their own stories and solutions.


Protect Yourself from Mosquitos

It’s summer and mosquitoes are out! Read through the information below for tips on how to protect yourself and your family.

Why is it important to prevent mosquito bites?
Mosquitoes can spread diseases that make you sick. In Massachusetts, mosquitoes can give you eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) virus and West Nile virus (WNV).

What is the best way to prevent mosquito bites?
Use mosquito repellent any time you are outdoors. Mosquito repellents can reduce your chances of being bitten by a mosquito and can reduce the risk that you will get one of these diseases. Use a mosquito repellent when you are outside and exposed to mosquitoes.

William James College INTERFACE Referral Service

Beginning on February 1, 2024, any resident of Attleboro or student attending the Attleboro Public Schools (through a guardian) will have access to the William James College INTERFACE Referral Service. The INTERFACE Helpline helps individuals in subscribing communities become connected with outpatient mental health and wellness resources.

Through the Helpline that operates from 9 AM- 5 PM on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and 8 AM- 6 PM on Tuesday and Thursday, callers will complete an intake which takes about 15-20 minutes and then within a day or so of their call will be assigned to work with a Resource and Referral Counselor who will help them navigate the challenges of finding mental health services, including obtaining a referral match to an outpatient provider, as well as information and resources related to mental health and wellness.  Please see What to Expect When You Call the Helpline or visit interface.williamjames.edu for more information.

 The INTERFACE Helpline is not an emergency service. If you or the person you are seeking to assist requires a crisis response to meet immediate safety needs, please call 988, 911, go to your local emergency room, or find your local crisis services by calling 833-773-2445 and asking for crisis support.
