Become a Joint Resolution Partner!
Building Bridges Initiative has partners all across the country striving for residential best practices. These partners listed throughout the BBI Joint Resolution, outwardly demonstrate their commitment to the values and principles outlined in the joint resolution. This is the qualification to being a partner as listed on the BBI Joint Resolution.
The Joint Resolution identifies an urgent need for transformation and envisions a comprehensive, flexible family-driven and youth-guided array of culturally competent and community-based services and supports, organized in an integrated and coordinated system of care in which families, youth, providers, advocates, and policymakers share responsibility for decision making and accountability for the care, treatment outcomes and well-being of children and youth with mental health needs and their families. Participants believe that actualizing this vision will yield a more efficient service delivery system, more effective and appropriate individualized services to children, youth and families, better use of resources, and improved outcomes.
