4. FSS was born through community collaboration In 1990, leaders in the behavioral health field, including CGC, developed a planning committee to implement the FSS concept in Jacksonville under the directive of the Florida Legislature. In the Fall of 1991, the first FSS was opened in the Springfield neighborhood. The program was designed with a community based advisory council that would determine the services needed in the community. The concept was based on the co-location of staff and shared responsibility by the collaborating agencies for the delivery of services.

15. Collaborations Continue In 2010, under the leadership of the Jacksonville Health Department, SAMSA awarded Jacksonville with a 5 year 5 Million dollar grant to study the System of Care. As behavioral health is an integral part of physical health, the FSS was represented by United Way. CGC was also part of the collaboration. The SOC partnered with the University Of Maryland to conduct a gap analysis which was funded by the Chartrand Foundation. The question was how to increase access for students and families to more effectively stretch the resources.
