The team was the first in NYS to meet the maximum number of clients – ten young folks who are allowed to participate at one time in this unique program utilizing a Care Manager, Family Peer Advocate and a Youth Peer Advocate. The staff members have been selected to train others on implementation of High Fidelity Wraparound services for youth who are facing intense challenges. The staff will be panelists at the NYS Coalition for Children’s Behavioral Health / NYS OMH <strong>2018</strong> Staff Development Training Forum in Saratoga Springs on November 27 th and 28 th . Children and Family Services is happy to have received two grants equaling $25,000 in readiness funding to promote Family Peer Advocates and Youth Peer Advocate services. These services provide some of the most strategic help at critical times when people need to know they are not the only ones who have experienced personal or family mental health challenges. Receiving support from people who have weathered the storm and are now enjoying life is just the supportive message that people facing crisis situations need to receive. Each day people providing peer services give others hope for a successful future and serve as role models for helping others to find their own individual path to wellness.
