Dorothy Williams, AS

Parent Mentor

I became a part of the Alta Behavioral Healthcare staff in 2015 as a Parent Mentor, now a Parent Partner, in the Upstream program.

I received my Associate of Arts degree in 2015 from Youngstown State University.  Since I started working here I have worked with early childhood families as well as

school age families. Through the Upstream program I have been able to provide families with great resource materials and individualized lessons to help parents teach their children at home.

I have had the privilege of showing parents how important it is to know that they are their child’s first teacher!
