New program looks to increase number of mental health professionals in Cincinnati Public Schools

Jae’auna Felton is a graduate student majoring in social work at the University of Cincinnati. She interns at Aiken High School, one of 66 Cincinnati Public Schools.

She said most of her days involve being a mediator or a listening ear for students sharing their day-to-day issues. But Felton, too, has experienced tragedy.

“My mother was just in her home. She was in her bedroom when a stray bullet went through the window. I just knew it couldn’t be real,” Felton said.
