Early Childhood Youth Involvement Workgroup: Issues and Suggestions
The Early Childhood Youth Involvement Workgroup was charged by Dr. Gary Blau to study the issue of the role of youth and youth coordinator in an Early Childhood System of Care. As a result of many discussions with you at the Regional Meetings and the Training Institutes Networking Meetings, the Workgroup has compiled a set of draft issues/suggestions for all to contribute and respond to through the listserv and the discussion room on the Early Childhood webpage. This is very much a work in progress and your ideas and suggestions are most welcome. We will also have the opportunity to discuss this issue in depth at the Special Forum on the Role of Youth and Youth Coordinator in an Early Childhood System of Care at the National Meeting in Atlanta. Please feel free to comment and discuss in the meantime through the listserv and the discussion room.
