    Episode 4 - Building a Continuum of Care: Student Mental Health with Trina Frazier

    On Episode 4 of the All Systems Go podcast, hosts Josh and Gina sit down with Trina Frazier, Assistant Superintendent of Student Services at the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools, to explore how a tiered “continuum of care” is transforming mental health support across California’s school systems. Trina breaks down each level—prevention and early intervention (Tier 1), mild-to-moderate clinical services (Tier 2), and specialty mental health partnerships (Tier 3)—and shares how Fresno County has leveraged wellness centers, mobile units, and the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative to make services accessible to every student . Learn how California’s $4.7 billion initiative allows schools and districts to bill commercial insurance, build sustainable infrastructure through consortiums, and ultimately fund counselors, school psychologists, and wellness coaches. Trina also discusses the power of cross-agency collaboration—from public health to social services—to center students and families in an integrated support network. Whether you’re an educator, administrator, or community leader, this episode offers actionable insights on designing and sustaining a holistic mental health continuum. Tune in to discover how perseverance, partnership, and innovative funding models can ensure every child gets the support they need to learn, grow, and thrive.
