Oregon Health Authority Partners Morrison Child & Family Services With Path Home For Pilot To Embed Child Behavioral Support In Family Shelter

The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) selected Morrison Child & Family Services and Path Home for a pilot program that embeds behavioral health support for infants and young children in a family shelter. OHA awarded Morrison Child & Family Services $286,000 to support the pilot.
