Sprayberry High School is a member of Sources of Strength. Sources of Strength is a best practice, strength-based, suicide prevention and mental health promotion program that has shown effectiveness in both preventative upstream and intervention outcomes. Sources of Strength takes a strength-based, upstream approach to preventing negative outcomes while promoting well-being, help-seeking, resilience, healthy coping, and a sense of belonging.

​

Rather than focusing solely on risk factors, Sources of Strength strengthens multiple protective factors, ensuring individuals have resources to rely on during difficult times. We wholeheartedly believe in the HOPE, HELP, and STRENGTH each individual can cultivate in themselves and others. By moving upstream in the prevention cycle, Sources of Strength fosters health and wellness, empowering both students and adults to build communities of belonging and connection.

​

If your student is interested in joining the SOS team, please stop by the counseling office or contact Mrs. Hawk at the beginning of the school year. Student mentors are trained every year to help facilitate school-wide initiatives promoting HOPE, HEALTH, and STRENGTH.
