The National Family Support Technical Assistance Center (NFSTAC) is committed to providing training and technical assistance using a lifespan approach that focuses on mental health and/or substance use challenges. Our approach is anchored by the underlying principles that families play a vital role in supporting their loved ones and are the experts regarding making a plan to support their family. Our Commitment:
At NFSTAC, our commitment is to rediscover our capacity for lifting up all members of our society, no matter their lived experiences, challenges, or personal traumas. By focusing on people’s potential—rather than their differences—we can begin to build stronger and more inclusive neighborhoods. We believe that true equity is the result of vibrant communities and responsive systems that promote self-reliance and interdependence and that celebrate diversity.
