Family Service of Rhode Island

Family Service of Rhode Island was proud to host a press conference for the Rhode Island Coalition for Children and Families yesterday, highlighting their recent report on the children’s behavioral health crisis in our state. The report emphasizes the urgent need for systemic changes, including the creation of a new cabinet-level state agency to oversee children's behavioral health services. Together, we are committed to advocating for the well-being of Rhode Island's children and ensuring they receive the support they need to thrive. Read the report here: https://bit.ly/3BJJtM8
