Treatment Foster Care Program
Open your heart. Share your home. Make a difference.
Treatment Foster Care Program Mission:Our mission as a Treatment Foster Care program is to provide successful placements focused on the best interest of children and their families with the most efficient use of community resources. We work in each Treatment Foster Home to provide consultation and support to the foster families, schools, and other community providers; ensuring that the children placed can quickly achieve a level of stability within the foster home and community.
Definition of Treatment Foster Care:A family and community based approach to treatment for a child with physical, mental, medical, alcohol or other drug abuse, cognitive, intellectual, behavioral, developmental or similar problems. Treatment Foster Care is designed to change the behavior which contributed to the child’s separation from his or her family. This approach uses specifically selected and trained foster parents who, as members of the treatment team, have shared responsibility for implementing the child’s treatment plan as the primary change agents in the treatment process.
