Purpose: Develop a system of care which allows families and youth to work in partnership with public and private organizations to design mental health services and supports that are effective, that build on the strengths of individuals, and that address each person’s cultural and linguistic needs.

Region II is partnering with other Regions to conduct a family centered practice (FCP) assessment on each Regionally funded child/adolescent behavioral health provider.

From this assessment, Region II will develop a plan which reflects the focus of youth coordination activities. This plan will include strategies to build on strengths and address system needs identified in the FCP assessment process.

Region II facilitates wraparound transition teams throughout the Region. The teams help youth experiencing behavioral health challenges find resources to assist them when they are transitioning into the adult behavioral health system.
