Circles of Care

Overview

 

NARA NW has received a three year
Circles of Care grant from the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
 

For this project, American Indian/
Alaska Native parents, youth, and elders, as well as community service providers, school districts and NARA NW project staff will work together to:
 

• address gaps and needs in mental
  health service delivery
   

• reduce stigma
   

• improve relationships between
  providers
   

• create a plan to improve, increase,
  and enhance existing services
   

• increase cultural competence in the
  overall behavioral health system.

With your help, we can plan and develop service systems and treatment options based on the
values of our local Native American community.

 

As a strengths-based model, Strengthening the Family Circle will also develop a system of care that offers protective factors for children who, without intervention, would likely develop a Severe Emotional/Behavioral Disturbance or related risk factors in the coming years.

 

Help Strengthen the family Circle!

The main goal of the Circles of Care project is to develop a system of care to improve mental health for children, youth, and families. Over the next three years, we will bring together:
• families
• young people
• community leaders
• elders
• school districts
• service providers.
