Are you the parent or caregiver of a youth who lives with a mental health or substance use condition?
Parent Support Partners are trained parents and caregivers who use their personal experiences to help other youth and families build on their strengths, navigate services, develop supports and find hope.
It has been wonderful to have a Parent Support Partner! Because she has “been there,” she truly understands our experience. We have found strength, connected with helpful community resources and have new hope for the future!

Parent Support Partners understand first-hand the challenges families may experience because they have navigated mental health /substance use systems with their own child.
They have been trained to support other families and can help you: • Identify and use your family’s strengths and
needs • Express your family’s voice and choice • Better understand and navigate services and
benefits • Connect with parent support groups and
helpful community resources
To learn if a Parent Support Partner can be helpful to your family, submit a Family Interest Form. (If your family is currently working with an agency or provider, please ask them to submit an Agency Referral Form.)
