Canvas Health

We are thrilled to welcome our School-Based MSW interns to Canvas Health. We have five interns that will be working in our schools this year as they finish their masters program. The interns will learn from and work with the therapists in the buildings in which they are placed. We are excited for their clinical growth, their learning about our school-based model and for all the students they will be able to support this year!

Ann Nitti and Crysta Haines our the two Fabulous Program Coordinators in our TAP School Based Program. Over the last year the TAP program saw 947 clients. Ann and Crysta work behind the scenes to help make sure we get all of our paperwork done, clients insurance is entered and accurate, and we are able to report to all of our grant funders and community partners about the great work that we are doing. These amazing individuals help all of our staff in the community feel connected and supported by Canvas Health and without them our therapists couldn’t do the beautiful work that they do. They are key to the success of our program and we are grateful for their work. (Ann & Crysta pictured with Carolyn Felty, school-based mental health manager)
