Southwest Family Youth System Partner Round Table

The Southwest Family Youth System Partner Round Table (FYSPRT) is a community-based group of youth, families, professionals and community members from Clark, Skamania, and Klickitat, counties who are passionate about making needed changes in the system of care that serves youth and families with complex mental health needs. Youth and families are equal partners at the table. The FYSPRT is a forum where you can share your experience and insight into creating a higher quality and more accessible system for families who are utilizing these important community resources.

Due to Coronavirus (COVID-19) concerns, some agencies are halting/cancelling in-person meetings. Due to this, the Youth Advocacy and Empowerment (YAE) and The Family Youth System Partner Round Table (FYSPRT) meetings will be conducted via virtual meetings until further notice, this information can be found within the agenda for each meeting. During this time, we are following the CDC guidelines along with our partner organizations where we host or facilitate meetings. We will closely follow the local health department, CDC, and Governor’s recommendations regarding COVID-19 and the engagement in groups and meetings in the community.

Please stay tuned and if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact Michelle Karnath at Michelle.Karnath.clark.wa.gov.

Why is the FYSPRT unique?

The FYSPRT has been adopted within the T.R. V Quigley Settlement Agreement as the Children’s Mental Health Governance Structure. Follow the “About Us” link for more information.

As the identified Regional FYSPRT, we meet monthly and have refreshments and incentives for youth while we work together to address our community needs. We want your voice to be heard!
