COMMUNITY RESOURCES

 A variety of counseling, testing and referral services are offered through Gwinnett County Public Schools.  Additionally, the following is a list of some of the community agencies (most of which are non-profit) that have been helpful to Gwinnett County children and their families.  This listing is not an endorsement or recommendation of any agency or service.  School social workers, nurses, counselors, psychologists and/or care teams are typically involved in linking families to outside agencies.  There may be fees for some services, and any such fees are the responsibility of the parent or guardian.
