Story Behind the Curve
95% of the 167 surveys completed reported success in advocating for the needs of their children after receiving services. Navigators have become more aware of services in the community through attending various meetings and trainings throughout the county, such as Early Childhood Council service coordination meetings. Navigators have also referred families to youth programs and mental health counseling at WYFCS and the Health Department.
