System of Care & Project LAUNCH Joint Council
The Joint System of Care (SOC) and Project LAUNCH Council provides a platform for parents and providers in the St. Louis community to come together to better coordinate and collaborate region-wide on issues concerning families and mental health across multiple systems.
The Council guides the work of two federally funded (SAMHSA) initiatives, Project LAUNCH and The System of Care – Children’s Mental Health Initiative (SOC-CMHI). This work would not be possible without strong collaboration. Together, we are able to more fully serve the St. Louis region. Contact Jawana Hammonds at jhammonds@visionforchildren.org to join.
Learn more about Project LAUNCH here and System of Care here.
