  • Family Preservation and Reunification

    The Family Preservation and Reunification program offers support to families with a child at risk for or currently placed out of the home. We provide intensive services in the home, working in cooperation with the family, and Children and Youth Services, to determine risk factors. For children at risk, we help the family develop goals that address those risk factors, so that children can remain in their homes. For those children placed out of the home, our goal is for their safe return.
  • Family Connections

    Family Connections supports children who have been placed out of the home. This program is a supervised visitation program that acknowledges the importance of continued parental and family contact for children in out-of-home placement. This program focuses on the child’s needs for nurturing and fun, and helps maintain critical family attachments with their children in the safest and most natural environment possible while they are in placement.
  • Family Group Decision Making

    This is a voluntary program that focuses on the process of bringing families together with the people who support them, to assist the family in making decisions to keep their children safe.
  • Supervised Visitation Service

    The Supervised Visitation Service supports children and non-custodial parents. This service provides a safe environment and advocacy for the child’s needs during court ordered visits. This service is provided in a safe office setting, where we offer comfortable rooms for visitation. Visits are monitored by trained staff whose goal is to insure the safety and well-being of the child.
  • Independent Living

    Our Independent Living program supports adolescents between 16 and 21 years of age in foster care placement. We provide a variety of services that are unique to each individual’s goals. We do this by coordinating services deemed necessary to help these individuals make progress towards their goals, and to provide support as they work towards independence.
