Resources for Families

Family Events

Positive family connections help youth do better in their education and treatment. Eastern supports positive family involvement.

We host events to allow youth and their families to spend time together. These include an annual family day and graduation.

Subscribe to OYA's monthly family newsletter and participate in family support groups.

Join the OYA Family Advisory Council. The council advises OYA on:

how to improve opportunities for families to meaningfully engage with their youth;
how to support families in understanding and navigating the system; and
how to incorporate family voice into OYA policies and practices.
