[QUOTE="Peanut, post: 4613, member: 88"] OK, basically this forum is to help you maneuver through the various "systems of care" which I've described below. Obviously, things vary from state to state to some degree so keep that in mind when asking me questions (other than school issues although State does over-ride Federal regs). I will try to research answers whenever possible as all states have a state page (DSHS included and MH is usually tied up somewhere in there). It may take some going back and forth with me asking questions and you answering them in order for me to get a clearer picture. Above all, try to be patient as I am currently working with about 6 families right now and volunteering my time with 3 others on a regular basis with some odd ball cases thrown in, so some weeks my schedule gets pretty tight.
