Local counseling provider introduces services at Round Lake board meeting
Summary
An executive director from Youth and Family Counseling described a new Round Lake Beach office offering affordable, bilingual behavioral‑health services for children and families and invited partnership with the district.
Janelle Miller Moravec, executive director of Youth and Family Counseling (YFC), used the meeting’s public‑comment period to introduce the agency’s Round Lake Beach clinic and request collaboration with the district. She said the office serves school‑age youth, accepts Medicaid, offers a sliding‑fee scale and bilingual staff, and has a care‑navigation section on its new website.
"I'm Janelle Miller Moravec. I'm the executive director of Youth and Family Counseling, which is an organization dedicated to opening doors to mental health care," Miller Moravec told the board, and described program capacity and referral pathways. Board members asked brief follow‑ups about psychiatric access and connection with pediatricians; the presenter said YFC does not prescribe medications and helps families navigate limited psychiatric availability.
