Ohio received a federal System of Care Expansion Planning grant SAMHSA to develop a strategic plan to expand services and supports for youth and young adults with mental illnesses (ages 14 - 21). Ohio's strategic plan will incorporate the plans and work done by state level committees that have focused on this population.
In order to support this planning process and to obtain wider input the ENGAGE team is seeking parents or a family member of a Youth/Young Adult (ages 14 - 21) with mental health needs who have an interest in System of Care and/or addressing the needs of youth and young adults in transition.
The ENGAGE team is developing workgroups that will focus on goals and is seeking three (3) family members from your organization who would be willing to participate in a workgroup to assist in developing Ohio's strategic plan.
