Director of Student Services
Johanna Chambers

Ms. Chambers joined the CWCKC team in 2018 as the first school social worker.  She has been in social work for 20 years and has worked in several settings, but she is most passionate about mental health care in schools.  She is in awe every time a child lets her see inside their world while in the therapy room.  She loves working in schools because it means she gets to impact a child’s world beyond what happens in a therapy session, and she believes in the power of partnering with teachers and students’ families to make school a safe and happy place for each and every student.  At CWCKC, she leads the Student Support Team, the implementation of social and emotional learning across the school, manages partnerships with community organizations to support a whole child approach to school, and provides therapy services.
