Family Care for Children and Youth - Family Based Services

Provides a specialized form of foster family care intended for children and youth whose needs exceed the capabilities of a traditional foster home. Such children are often sent to group homes or institutions, which do not provide a family living experience. As a vital alternative, a treatment family is specially selected and trained to deal with the child's special needs and to help each child grow in a successful family atmosphere. Through family activities and community events, children participating in Family-Based Services will learn the responsibilities and behaviors that come with being part of a caring family.
