Parents/caregivers...YOUR voice is needed!
The Jackson County ISD (JCISD) and LifeWays CMH are partnering with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and Michigan Department of Education (MDE) to host two virtual listening session opportunities for parents/caregivers in our community on Monday, September 28th.
The goal of these listening sessions is to capture the voices of parents in order to better understand their experience in supporting their child's mental health...what has worked and what could be improved. This feedback will be used as a starting point to drive planning and decision making at both our local Jackson level and at the state level.
Have you ever had to try to get mental health support for your child?
Do you know what mental health services are available for your child in our community?
Do you have experiences you are willing to share?
What are schools and mental health service providers doing well?
What could we be doing better?
Join other parents/caregivers on Monday, September 28th for a Virtual Listening Session specifically designed to learn more about your experience in supporting your child's mental health! (Pick a session, 12:00-1:00pm or 6:00-7:00pm)
Click HERE to register for one of the sessions by Friday, September 25th! A stipend will be offered to each participant.
Thank you for your consideration in having your voice heard!
Have a GREAT day and GO SPARTANS!
