Sage Alliance prides itself on being a part of the vast and vibrant special education community in the areas that we serve. However, we know that, for most families, the need for services and support rarely ends with the school day. Luckily, most areas offer a lot of additional services for mental health support.

For our families in the Mahwah, New Jersey area, here are just a few ideas for resources.

Community Resources:

• Spectrum Care Management & Counseling, LLC provides coordinated support and counseling for individuals with autism, intellectual disabilities, traumatic brain injuries and more. Check out the website for more information: https://www.spectrumcmc.com/about-us/the-spectrum-advantage/  
• West Bergen Mental Healthcare offers mental health services to children, teens, adults and families. Programs cover issues such as academic difficulties, anger or aggression, anxiety, ADHD, social skills, bullying, eating or sleep issues, and many more.
