Regional Interagency Council (RIAC)

What We Do:

Regional Interagency Councils (RIACs) operate as the regional locus of accountability for the System of Care. We provide a structure for coordinating, planning and collaborating services and support to children and transition-age youth with, or at risk of, developing behavioral health needs and other challenges and their families.

The structure builds on existing resources of local public and private agencies and community partners within the community to support sustainable policy, practice and system reform in order to improve the larger System of Care for Kentucky’s children, transition-age youth and their families, where they live, learn, work and play.

Who We Are:

There are 3 RIACs serving 17 counties within the Bluegrass Region (East, South, West). Each Council is composed to members representing the following agencies:

  • Regional Community Mental Health Centers
  • Administrative Office of the Courts
  • Department for Community Based Services
  • Division of Family Resource and Youth Services Centers (FRYSC)
  • Office of Vocational Rehabilitation
  • Kentucky Education Cooperatives/Special Education Services
  • Department of Juvenile Justice
  • Local Health Departments
  • Parents (biological, adoptive or relative caregivers with permanent legal custody) who are raising or have raised a child with mental health or co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges who has been or is a client of at least one service to address these challenges, prior to the age of 21
  • Transition-Age Youth (16-25 years of age) who have a behavioral health disorder and who are receiving or have received a service to address mental health, substance use, or co-occurring mental health and substance use disorder before the age of 21

We encourage collaboration with other local public or private agencies providing services and support to children and transition-age youth with behavioral health needs.
