Family Tapestry is the family organization contracted by ON CARE to help you, as parents, with a variety of supports and trainings that will assist you in caring for your child, and equip you to be an active part of advocating for your child's needs and improvements in the service system.

We feel strongly that parents have wanted for a long time to have a say in their children's treatment but our voice weren't heard. Being part of ON CARE and participating in the training, support groups, etc. that Family Tapestry offers can help parents and caregivers be an active part of our child's treatment team.

This survey was developed to find out what is important to the families of Onondaga County, and what things are keeping you from participating in Family Tapestry and ON CARE. We are committed to removing barriers to family and youth participation and to make it as easy as possible for families to take advantage of all that Family Tapestry and ON CARE have to offer.

Some of the questions that follow are of a personal nature. We want to emphasize that we are asking these questions to better assist families in meeting their needs in caring for themselves and their children with behavioral challenges. Our goal is to strengthen families through supports that are meaningful to you, based on the information you provide. Thank you in advance for completing this survey.

NOTE: This survey is for parents and caregivers only.
