OUR PROGRAMS
Providing caregivers strength-based programming and community resources to prevent entrance into the foster care system.
OUR PROGRAMS
Our statewide program assists caregivers who are supporting their relative’s children without formal Department of Children and Family Service involvement. The program is designed to prevent entrance into foster care and provide support with the guardianship process.
Services include:
We provide services in the following counties:
Bond, Clinton, Madison, Marion, Monroe, Randolph, St. Clair, Washington, and Cook
We meet families where they are by empowering families to find solutions to their own individual needs as well as providing a pathway for families to avoid interactions with the child welfare system.
The program reimagines the work these employees are doing with families and provides meaningful support at the earliest identified sign of need. This voluntary program is designed to offer services to families, reported to the Department of Children and Family Services, where the risk to the child is deemed low enough for short term involvement (averaging 30 days), but where some services are needed to ensure families can effectively utilize their own strengths and community resources to ensure the safety of their children and prevent future department involvement.
We provide services to families in:
Northern Cook County from Hyde Park to Palatine
