Parents and Families in the Know, presented by the Suffolk County Prevention Workgroup

Understand resources for youth who are at risk for, or experiencing, developmental disabilities, mental health challenges, and/or using substances. Learn the signs to look for, and how to access services and supports if you believe your child requires additional help in school, is not reaching developmental milestones, is showing signs of struggling emotionally, or may be experimenting with alcohol or drugs. This presentation will provide you with contact information for local agencies that can provide parent education and support (free or low-cost to you), and help you with next steps in getting your child the support that they need to thrive. Acting early can make a difference!
