Pat has worked in the mental health field for almost 10 years, beginning as a consumer of services in the Wraparound process for her children. After receiving the support she needed for her children and gaining the ability to navigate the child serving agencies, she decided to help other families and became a Family Support Partner. She has assisted families in their effort to find the support they need and helped them to become empowered and knowledgeable about the system and the care of their youth.  

When the opportunities presented it self she became a Care Coordinator, facilitating and coordinating the wraparound process while she working in a SAMHSA “Wraparound Grant Initiave” in Montgomery County, Maryland called “Community Kids.” She said she really liked the name because it included the youth with mental health challenges as part of the community and not as a problem in the community.
