National Resource Network for Child and Family Mental
Health Services The National Resource Network (NRN) provides field-driven, practice-based training and technical assistance to the current 31 grantees of the Center for Mental Health Services Comprehensive Community Mental Health Service for Children and Their Families program. These grantees, ranging from single neighborhoods to entire states, are building comprehensive, community-based systems of care which seek to dramatically improve the outcomes for children with serious emotional disturbance and their families. These initiatives are family-centered and closely involve mental health, child welfare, education, juvenile justice, public health, and substance abuse agencies. The NRN operates under the auspices of the Washington Business Group on Health with funding primarily from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services's Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) with additional support from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), National Clearinghouse on Child Abuse and Neglect Information (NCCAN), and the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). |
