Advocacy
We provide a free, independent link for
individuals who
live in Philadelphia and receive or require MR services.
Our focus is on assuring that the rights of
people receiving services are protected and they are treated with dignity and respect. We want to empower people and their families
to advocate for themselves.
The services we provide are. . .
- Advocate, monitor and take action to assure personal
rights
- Act as an impartial source of assistance for conflict
resolution
- Evaluate the adequacy of policies, procedures and
services
- Provide individual training and consultation
- Referral for legal information and
services
We are interested in assisting you
in creating a better life for you and your family.
However, due to limited resources we need
to restrict our support to individuals age 14 and above. If your child required more intensive assistance in the MR/MH system,
please contact us. For children 13 and younger contact your supports
coordinator and the counselor at your local school.
