South County, Rhode Island: (Local school sytem) For more information: contact Sandy Keenan, Senior Education Advisor, at skeenan@air.org 2. Project REACH, R.I. Statewide System of Care: Lisa Conlan, who was the Director of the Rhode Island Parent Support Network in 1998, wrote the following summary in Volume 1 of the Promising Practice Series. She sees the Family Service Coordinator as the most essential feature of the Rhode Island REACH project and the source of the project's success. Her own words were, "The Family Service Coordinator is the weaver. They are the ones who build trust with the family, bring everyone together, support the family as a decision maker through the individualized service plan process, do all the follow up, and look for the outcomes. They are the ones who are there to hear from the parent when a plan is not working out or when the family goes into crisis. They hold the web together."
