management services. FSL's prevention staff will provide education services for the Southold
Town Youth Services Program.
FSL will hire additional part-time psychiatric prescribers and additional licensed, Master's level

FSL will provide any and all other services, upon mutual agreement, as needed by the Town of
Southold's Youth Services Program.
