Regional Parent Advisors

 

The primary role of each Regional Parent Advisor is to build a relationship with all of the family support services within their region. Parent Advisors provide a forum for local family support services to network with one another. They also serve as liaisons, facilitating communication between the New York State Office of Mental Health and the families in the community.
