Children's Mental Health Councils

 WANTED: FATHERS & MOTHERS OF CHILDREN WITH MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES (Mental, Emotional and Behavioral Needs)

Our councils consist of dedicated members who are striving to improve services for families & children with serious emotional disturbances. We would like at least 51% parent involvement, because we believe parents are the experts on their own children. Currently our councils have an incentive program for voting parents. As a parent we can express our TRUE VOICE, & TRUE CHOICE. This is an unique opportunity for Parents, who have children, dealing with emotional, behavioral, &/or mental health needs, to express their concerns, voice their ideals and opinions.
