Research indicates that fewer than one-quarter of SMHAs (24%) formally identify adult clients as parents. Just over one-fourth of SMHAs (27%) have services or programs for adult clients who are parents, while only four SMHAs (8%) have written policies or practice guidelines regarding adult SMHA clients who are parents.
