​​​What is a FYSPRT?
FYSPRT (pronounced FIS-PERT) is a group created to bring families, youth, system partners, and community members together to strengthen and improve community resources used to address the behavioral health needs of children, youth and families.

All Regions in Washington State have an active FYSPRT, and some have local FYSPRTs. These groups come together once a quarter at the State FYSPRT meeting to discuss work to improve behavioral health services across the state.
