Mississippi Family 2 Family Peer Support Network

F2FC is working to develop a statewide network of 100 Mississippi families of children and youth with special health care needs to provide peer support—information about resources, advice, everyday wisdom, a calming voice and a strong shoulder—to other Mississippi families of children with special health care needs. Organization is already underway, beginning with the families who are members of the F2FC Advisory Committee.
