2nd Family Partner call

2nd Family Partner call Nov. 19th

Family partners from SOC County Leadership teams are invite to join the discussion.
Strengths:
  • Green County is dedicated to engaging family members to join the County Leadership Team.  They’ve been successful in recruiting youth partners through the Independent Living program.
  • Chester County is making progress on the System of Care longitudinal study.
  • Crawford County had a very successful SOC kickoff. There were 182 people that attended the two day event and Family Partners assisted with the PR and the Youth Partners greeted and signed in the attendees.
  • Montgomery County Family Partners are involved in sub-committee groups which include focusing on schools and natural supports.
Challenges:
  • Family voice still needs recognition.  Family partners share their ideas but system barriers remain.
Next call Jan. 21st - Contact Crystal to learn more.
