Oregon Family Support Network

Oregon Family Support Network (OFSN, www.ofsn.org) is Oregon’s statewide family network since 1990, with a mission defined as "Families across Oregon supporting other families who have children and youth with mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders." OFSN provides support and advocacy to families, guided by family support principles and the belief that building on the strengths of family members, children and youth is the best way to address mental health needs.
