Family Connections: Navigating Resources, Support, & More
How to benefit from extra support and guidance when it comes to navigating systems to find resources and support for families.
 
Date and time
Thursday, October 3 · 1:30 - 2:30pm EDT
 
 
 
Hosted by the National Family Support Technical Assistance Center, “Family Connections” is a virtual community for fathers, mothers, parents, caregivers, and the family peer workforce who support family members experiencing substance use and/or mental health challenges.
 
Join "Family Connections" on Wednesday, October 3rd when we explore "Navigating Resources, Support, & More.” Families - and the family peer workforce that supports them - tell us they need credible resources, guidance on accessing help, and the opportunity to connect with others facing similar challenges. We also know parents and caregivers are the subject matter experts when it comes to their own child of any age. At the same time, they benefit from family peer support and guidance when it comes to navigating systems to find the support they want for their family.
 
Together, we'll dive into our top supports and resources for family members and the family peer workforce:
