School counselors work closely with local agencies, programs, and universities. Parents or guardians who wish to have school and agency personnel share information with each other may sign a release of information giving permission for this sharing. These releases are available in Student Services as well as on-line.
Among the agencies with whom BJ counselors work are:
McLean County Center for Human Services
The Community Health Care Clinic
John M. Scott Health Resources Center
The Department of Children and Family Services
The Children's Home and Aid Society (Children's Foundation)
The McLean County Health Department
