System of Care Partners
Thrive is committed to working together with all community partners to develop and improve a comprehensive trauma-informed system of care for children and youth with serious emotional disorders and their families by collaborating with key stakeholders: children, youth, families, Child Welfare Services, Early Childhood Services, Department of Corrections, Department of Education, Children's Behavioral Health Services, private child, youth and family serving agencies, schools, individual service providers, and other entities and organizations.
All of our System of Care Partners will endorse this Memorandum of Understanding endorsing THRIVE principles of offering services that are family driven, youth guided, and cultural and linguistic competent, while creating systems and services that are trauma informed. This last principle is the hallmark of THRIVE.
THRIVE will provide the technical assistance, support, and resources to bring these principles to life throughout the community to build a brighter tomorrow.
