The Collaborative Service Team operates in schools and homes throughout Crow Wing County, serving the school districts of Brainerd, Crosby-Ironton, and Pequot Lakes, as well as their respective Early Childhood programs.

We work closely with school staff to assist children and families by connecting them with the strategies and resources they need. From connecting a family with food assistance, providing support during a crisis, or offering more intensive behavioral or socioemotional group and individual skill development, all of the Collaborative's services are available year-round and are free of charge.
