Kimberly Boatner, LCSW, CADC
Discuss staff education, family presentations, and needs-based planning for school communities in Kane County and the Fox Valley.
School communities bring together students, families, educators, and support staff with different responsibilities and concerns. A mental health presentation is more useful when its audience and purpose are clear: what questions are people asking, and what should the conversation help them understand?
Kimberly Boatner, LCSW, CADC, welcomes inquiries from schools and education organizations about presentations and consultation. Her background includes private and public education settings, residential and outpatient care, and ongoing community collaboration in Kane County.
Discuss a request focused on the mental health questions staff encounter, communication about support, or connections with community resources. Identify whether the audience includes teachers, student-services teams, administrators, or a combination.
Explore an educational event around questions families bring to the school community. A focused audience and clear purpose can help distinguish general education from individualized advice.
Inquire about consultation around priorities, coordination, and a practical plan for an identified need. Planning may require a different scope from a single presentation.
Requests involving students should specify the age group and proposed setting. Content, format, consent considerations, and fit need to be discussed before an engagement is agreed upon.
You do not need a finalized event title to inquire. Describe the need in general terms, without sharing student records or individual case histories.
Kimberly’s community involvement includes the Mid-Valley Special Education Cooperative and a partnership with the Kane County Regional Office of Education. Her clinical and educational background informs the context she brings to organizational conversations. These relationships do not imply an endorsement of a specific event.
Schools in St. Charles, Geneva, Campton Hills, and the surrounding region are welcome to inquire. Location, availability, presentation format, and any requested credentials or credit requirements must be confirmed.
