Family Service & Guidance Center's parent support and training service provides both individual and group support and education.  You will learn what treatments and supports are available for your child's needs.  Group curriculum includes ways to advocate effectively for your child in school, interpreting national laws designed to support individuals with mental disabilities and how to request services for your child's mental health needs, as well as effective parenting techniques.  Most importantly, caregivers will learn ways to show empathy to a child or adolescent experiencing a mental illness.  Groups meet twice a month at FSGC.  Childcare and a light meal are available.  Referrals can be made through your child's FSGC targeted case manager.  Individual parent support sessions are available to address specific family needs.
