Permanently removing a child from an abusive situation is the last resort in preventing child abuse and neglect, with damaging consequences for the child and the community. For families willing to change their behaviors keeping the family intact or reuniting the family with their child is the preferable alternative. This program provides the tools for families to achieve this goal through parenting classes, therapy, crisis intervention and other services.
Eligibility
1) Families with children at risk of child abuse and/or neglect that are self referred, referred by the Department, or other professional agencies.
2) Children reported to the Department as harmed or threatened with harm by a family member.
3) Resource caregivers providing out-of-home care to children who have been harmed or threatened with harm under the jurisdiction of the Department when services are needed to maintain or preserve an out-of-home placement.
4) Families who adopted or assumed legal guardianship or permanent custody of children who have been under the jurisdiction of the Department. CWS referrals will have first priority.
