Title: Parent to Parent of Georgia’s Navigator 360 Project
Abstract:
Parent to Parent of Georgia‘s Navigator 360 Project is an innovative human service model that is designed with and involves families, is easily replicated and is based in the strengths of private-public partnerships. The vision is that these partnerships will work collaboratively with families with developmental disabilities so support systems needed are integrated and accessible when families need them and ultimately help families stay together and thrive. Given the lack of a comprehensive and coordinated system in Georgia, families have many challenges facing them related to disability issues. Families need timely and accurate information, they need training and guidance and they need opportunities to build their own capacity to partner in decision-making at all levels. Parent to Parent of Georgia’s Navigator 360 Project has designed a continuum of service that provides all this and more.

Abstract:
The NJ 360 Center is designed to serve teenagers and young adults with developmental disabilities and their families.. The Center’s primary objective will direct services to persons within the Latino/Hispanic community of the City of Perth Amboy who because of cultural, economic and social barriers are traditionally underserved. The Center will assist this target population in receiving intensive self-directed family services as they transition from formal educational programs to adult life outside of the boundaries of school. The planning and creation of a comprehensive “transition plan” for all participants and their families will facilitate successful strategies and pathways which will result in the participants’ ability to function independently and productively in the most appropriate and challenging community setting.

Title: Statewide Parent Advocacy Network of New Jersey (SPAN) Military Family 360 Center - For Military Families
Abstract:
The Statewide Parent Advocacy Network (SPAN) will provide support and assistance to a minimum of 30 military families who have children with developmental disabilities in 2009-2010, and 40 families each year in 2010-2014. As of October 1, Fort Dix McGuire Air Force Base, and Lakehurst Naval Air Station will combine into one installation (mega-base) under the authority of BRAC. This consolidation will result in an increased military population and heavily impact resources and programs in the surrounding community and within the state placing a unique position to benefit from a 360 Military Family Center. Through coordination with partners, SPAN will identify families in need of higher levels of support and assistance that can be provided through current military and civilian resources. A program navigator will facilitate each family’s need assessment to identify its needs and support, develop a family plan, and assist the family in accessing needed resources.

Title: Nevada’s Family support 360 Center
Abstract:
Like other communities across the United States, Clark County is challenged by the needs of children with co-occurring developmental disabilities and behavioral health care needs. Children in the target population are either served in one system that is able to address only part of their problem or they are the “unclaimed” children who fall through the cracks and do not get the services that they require. Because of the complexity of their needs, rarely can one system – the developmental disability system, the mental system, the educational system or the juvenile justice system provide the comprehensive services and supports the children and their families require.
