Description

In February of 2022, parents of children with disabilities were invited to a virtual conference sponsored by Maine LEND titled "Parents as Experts" and completed an assessment of their family's mental, emotional, and behavioral health needs. This assessment helped to determine awareness of evidence-informed programs that promote health, preserve families, and provide quality care. Additionally, it helped to define which methods help to increase program visibility.
