The IMT is facilitated by Terry Call of the Illinois State Board of Education and Curt Dale of the Department of Children and Family Services. It is an open meeting to all individuals interested in improving and supporting LANs to consistently respond to the needs of children and their families. Membership on the LAN reflects a balance of formal systems that operate in a community along with community stakeholders. Local Area Networks are responsible for developing a community based System of Care for children and adolescents from their local geographic area. Each of the 62 LANs throughout the State of Illinois can determine their own structures and governance procedures.
Membership does vary among communities, but reflects the makeup of the overall area.
Co-Conveners are responsible for chairing and facilitating LAN meetings. One key task of LANs has been to assume responsibility and oversight of implementing Wraparound in the local community. 2,354 persons visited this site in the year 2000.
