Children's Mental Health Listening Posts

Listening posts are being hosted at locations across Iowa on behalf of the Children’s System State Board established by Gov. Kim Reynolds in April. The focus of the listening posts is to understand what children mental health services need to be available locally. How can you get involved?

The state board will review the Information gathered from these listening posts as part of its charge to review existing resources and develop a strategic plan with specific recommendations to create a statewide system to help children with mental health issues. This report, with recommendations, is due to the legislature on Nov. 15.

Join the Green Hills AEA on site listening post, October 10th from 5:30-7:30 pm at the Green Hills AEA Creston Regional Office, 257 Swan St.

Two additional opportunities have been created for those unable to attend on site:

An online listening post has been scheduled for today, October 4 from 12:00-1:00 p.m.
