Children's
Case Management
Serving
children from birth through age twenty
The
Children's Case Management Program uses
a collaborative team effort to enhance the capacity of enrolled
children and families to achieve their identified goals.
These coordinated services provide families with supportive
links within the child’s home, school and community.
We
work as a team with families to
 assess
strengths and needs of the child and family;
identify
needed resources and services;
support
parents to enhance self-advocacy goals;
evaluate
current services for effectiveness;
