DESCRIPTION
Are you a family leader with lived experience as a primary caregiver of a child, youth, or young adult with mental health or substance use need? Are you working in a role that fosters and supports family engagement in agency practice and policy decisions? Are you interested in connecting with other family leaders working in similar roles to expand and enhance your skills and knowledge? Whether you are new to your role or you have been in the family movement for many years, the Family Exchange is a peer networking group to share experiences, innovative and effective practices, skills and knowledge, solution to barriers and challenges, and key information supporting your role as a family leader.
The group will be facilitated by experienced family leaders from the Family-Run Executive Director Leadership Association (FREDLA) who will foster peer connections; provide access to resources and technical assistance; and support family leaders to further family engagement within their agency, community, or state.
AUDIENCE
Family leaders, lead family contacts, family members employed by state and county government agencies, leadership staff of family-run organizations, family engagement coordinators.
