State Consumer and Family Advisory Committee (SCFAC)
The State Consumer and Family Advisory Committee (SCFAC) is a 21 member self-governing and self-directed advisory organization, composed entirely of consumers and family members of consumers. The SCFAC model was included in the Division of MH/DD/SAS State Plans, which stated that t
his body’s role is to “provide input and conduct oversight of the Division’s operations and efforts to accomplish the strategic outcomes of the State Plan.” In 2006, the SCFAC was codified into General Statute 122C-171. Its role is now described as a committee that “advises the Department (DHHS) and the General Assembly on the planning and management of the State’s public mental health, developmental disabilities, and substance abuse services system.” This committee regularly meets with the Division leadership and provides consumer and family input and perspective to the Department and the General Assembly.
The current SCFAC Chair is Rosemary Weaver and Vice-Chair is Libby Jones. You may contact SCFAC members at state.cfac@dhhs.nc.gov.
