Greetings,

Parents and Caregivers for Wellness is a group of Parent/Caregiver run organizations from across California who are working together to improve behavioral health services and supports to children and their families. 

Families are the best resource we have to identify the strengths and needs of California’s families. To help us understand what behavioral health services and supports are needed in California, we are asking that you fill out the following survey.  The information you provide will help us develop training and advocacy activities.  

We hope that you will provide us with your name and contact information at the end of the survey so that we can send you the results of this survey, keep you updated on our activities, and provide you with information that will help you and your family.

If you have any questions about this survey or want to know more about us, please call (805) 384-1555, email mhannah@unitedparents.org or look us up on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParentsAndCaregiversForWellness/ or our website: https://parentscaregivers4wellness.org/

Thank you for your time.
