Building Systems Of Trust Essence For Successful Outcomes

Building Systems Of Trust Essence For Successful Outcomes
An interactive session with Janet Hoeke & Laura Wallis, thought-leaders, children mental-health advocates, and systems innovators who have fulfilled important roles in the building of Idaho’s Youth Empowerment Service (YES) System of Care. The hour of sharing will allow attendees to learn the importance of ‘lived experience’ and why systems of care must have parents/caregivers and youth, ‘not just sitting at the table’ rather, engaged as equal partners. In addition, ‘trust’ is essential in building an effective system of care, where all children/youth, emerging adults and families have access to high quality care in achieving successful outcomes.
