Family Peer Specialist-CC531301

The Certified Community Behavioral Health Services (CCBHC) Family Peer Support Services are an array of formal and informal activities and supports provided to families caring for/raising a child who is experiencing social, emotional, medical, developmental, substance use, and/or behavioral challenges in their home, school, placement, and/or community.

FPSS provides a structured, strength-based relationship between a Family Peer Specialist and the parent/family member/caregiver for the benefit of the child/youth. Services are delivered in a trauma informed, culturally and linguistically competent manner. Family is defined as the primary caregiving unit and is inclusive of the wide diversity of primary caregiving units in our culture.
