To maximize the impact of their work, Student Assistance Teams need information on and links to a variety of services available to meet the individual needs of the students they serve. Students receiving services through SAT frequently have problems with multiple roots. It is imperative that SATs and their members develop knowledge and contacts from which they can access the most appropriate and effective services for each student. The following information is intended to as a sampling of background information that may be of assistance to teams to develop a working list of resources from which they may draw to meet the needs of the students in their school.
