Alaska Behavioral Health

Alaska Behavioral Health extends its reach in Fairbanks through its school-based mental health services, ensuring that children and adolescents receive consistent behavioral health support where they spend most of their day—at school. As part of a system-wide approach to care, this program connects students with trained mental health professionals who provide individualized therapy, crisis intervention, and skill development in coordination with families and educators.

Rooted in trauma-informed care, school-based services focus on helping young people manage anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and behavioral issues, while also fostering emotional regulation and academic success. These services are especially vital for children navigating complex life challenges who may otherwise go without mental health support.

By bringing behavioral health care directly into Fairbanks schools, Alaska Behavioral Health continues its mission to improve access, reduce stigma, and promote long-term recovery and wellness among Alaska’s youth.
