Emerge Life Skills Training and Respite Program

This is a curriculum-based supportive program for parents who are struggling with a psychiatric disability. The program offers encouragement, support, advocacy, and parenting skill building (provided through the Families Facing Solutions curriculum). It also assists the families with coordination of services and provides linkages with alternate community programs that benefit all family members. The focus is on family strengths and preparing the family to face possible disruptions while remaining together.
