FastTrackerMN’s Anoka-Hennepin Ambassador Awareness Project

We were honored to receive funding from Congressman Phillips’ office, marking the commencement of our “Anoka-Hennepin Ambassador Project.” This initiative allows us to collaborate with the Anoka-Hennepin school district, working closely with students, faculty, and the community. Our primary focus is to elevate awareness surrounding mental health and facilitate open conversations to socialize mental health discussions. Together, through the Anoka-Hennepin Ambassador Project, we strive to create a supportive environment that encourages understanding and proactive engagement with mental health concerns.

Anoka-Hennepin Ambassador Project Goals

  • Elevate Awareness
  • Cultivate Community Presence
  • Foster comfort and awareness in dealing with mental health and substance use disorder concerns

Tips for Providers

We’re excited to share that FastTrackerMN has expanded its keyword options to better represent the diverse range of services offered by our dedicated providers. Two new keywords have been introduced:

  1. Veteran:
    • Use this keyword if you serve the veteran population.
    • Offer groups or services tailored to veterans.
    • Have providers on your team who are veterans.
  2. Adoption/Foster Care:
    • Select this keyword if your location has expertise in adoption or foster care services.
    • Indicate providers with experience working with families undergoing the adoption process or involved in foster care.

These additions aim to enhance the accuracy and specificity of your listings, ensuring individuals can easily find the services that align with their unique needs. Thank you for your continued commitment to supporting our community’s mental health and substance use disorder needs.

Breaking Language Barriers: A Multicultural Initiative Unveiled!

FastTrackerMN.org is  embarking on a groundbreaking journey to ensure our platform is accessible to everyone. Our Language Translators and Cultural Liaisons from the Hmong, Spanish, and Somali communities are collaborating to enhance the availability of Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder resources across Minnesota.

But that’s not all! If your program includes providers fluent in Somali, Hmong, or Spanish, make sure to highlight this information by adding it as a keyword. It helps individuals in need find you easily and ensures effective communication.

Moreover, as we work on translations, we aim to make our site truly reflect the diversity of Minnesota. We’re striving to create an inclusive space that mirrors the rich cultural tapestry of our state.

Stay tuned for more details and be part of our journey toward breaking language barriers and providing accessible support for all.
