Positive Support Services
Positive Support Services - Among Friends has restructured
We have become two agencies - two powerful “arms” of the same mission.
Shanya continues to steward Among Friends.
She is focusing on expanding the training program she started in 2012 and the train-the-trainer certification program she started in 2019. She will also be creating more tools and providing private pay consultation. She will focus on her passion of working with parents and teams to build capacity. These trainings, tools, and consultation services are available anywhere in the U.S.
Cara has opened a new agency called Pathway to Common Ground.
She will continue providing private pay consultation in the U.S. and Medicaid funded positive support services in the state of Washington. This new agency will focus on working directly with clients alongside their teams. Links and information about working with the team at Pathway to Common Ground are listed below.
Thank you for being our incredible community partners!
Both Shanya and Cara look forward to continuing to collaborate in the future.
