In Oregon, our child and youth serving systems changes are led by local and regional Systems of Care Governance Committees. These committees are made up of youth and families, service providers, state agencies, and care coordination organizations throughout the state.

A coordinated care organization is a network of all types of healthcare providers (physical health care, addictions and mental health care and dental care providers) who work together in their local communities to serve people who receive health care coverage under the Oregon Health Plan (Medicaid). CCOs focus on prevention and helping people manage chronic conditions, like diabetes. This helps reduce unnecessary emergency room visits and gives people support to be healthy.

Schools are a hub of every family and a great place to stay connected to support youth.Your school can help you with navigating special education service. You can contact your school and ask for Student Services and Special Education.
