Abstract:
The Self-Assessment and planning guide is intended to serve as a road map to planners, policy makers, advocates, family representatives and others engaged in building a system of care for children and families. The Guide addresses seven important areas: identification of current spending and utilization patterns across agencies; realignment of funding streams and structures; financing of appropriate services and supports; financing to support family and youth partnerships; financing to improve cultural and linguistic competence and reduce disproportionality in care; financing to improve the workforce and provider network for behavioral health services for children and families; and financing for accountability.
