Additionally, community resources are provided at the time of the screening.

Terrace Metrics is a computer-based program that screens youth mental health based on several key indicators. These include depression and anxiety, but also strength measures such as resilience, leadership, and life satisfaction. Working with Terrace Metrics and using their Resiliency and Wellness System is a long-term solution that consistently builds resilience within students and schools. Not just students who may need assistance, but maintaining levels among students that are already doing well. This is important because resiliency is a leading factor in optimal school performance. The Terrace Metrics system promotes resilience by involving key resources in each school and parents. Parents have access to all items prior to giving their consent, and they can receive a report of their child's results.  These results are linked to parent-specific videos and other resources, designed to help improve an area of focus. Educators have access to the deidentified, aggregate results.  Terrace Metrics works with educators to link the results to school wide and group- and individual-focused content. All content is skills-based and designed to increase resilience scores in key areas.
