From ktvus debora villalon. Shes live on highway 20 with the fatigue that Fire Fighters are starting to feel. Reporter its really starting to rack up heather. Were in clear springs. In the distance you will see theres a road closure. In the back of the hill theres a few big hot spots. No one expects them to be the last. Tonight this hill was crackling on the side of highway 20. Thats where firefighters will spend the night trying to keep it there. Most highways are natural fire breaks but not for the rocky fire. And theres hundreds of hillsides like this. Packed tight with fuel and ready to burn. This is Fire Fighters 13th day at the line. First they were at the wragg fire, then the lowell fire now this one.

Not just the family, the extended family, community representatives, stakeholders in the success of the changed outcome. As mr. Nyby mentioned, we need to professionally equip our staff with training on what evidencebased Research Assessment tools are. A key component of the efficacy is that the family is involved. In utah, i am happy to say we have taken a National Standard and created a utah family and child Assessment Tool that is insistently revisited as a tool for cases. When a parent says they could really use assessment in mental health, with a Substance Abuse disorder, it is consistently revisited.
