Alabama Family Ties (AFT) is Alabama’s parent support group for families of children with emotional and behavioral challenges. In January, AFT opened its second The Leadership Institute of Alabama Family Ties (LIFT) advocacy training program for families. Through the training, family members will become better advocates for their children and for children’s mental health needs in general. Visit their web site at www.alfamilyties.org or to learn about the upcoming their 10th annual statewide-conference see http://www.alfamilyties.org/aft_news.html
