We Need Your Voice: Help Shape Our CYBH Conversation

Dear CASSW Community,

As the CASSW President, I have the opportunity to meet with Autumn Boylan at the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), who oversees the Children and Youth Behavioral Health (CYBH) Initiative statewide — and I want to make sure I represent your voice is at the table if CYBH has been implemented or being implemented in your districts.

Before that meeting, I'm asking you to take a few minutes to complete a brief survey sharing your real-world experiences with the CYBH Initiative. Your honest feedback will directly inform the conversation and help ensure the perspectives of school social workers across California are represented.

⏰ Please complete the survey by Noon on Wednesday, June 17th, 2026.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences. What you do every day in schools matters — and so does your voice in shaping the policies and programs that support our students and communities.

In community,

Cristina
