Youth Case Management: Youth Case Management Services offer families, children, and youth needed assistance to obtain and coordinate other community resources and services. Those services will then enhance the child's or youth's ability to remain with his/her family in the community and to participate fully in the community. The case manager also helps families advocate for their children and family and use their own strengths and natural supports to accomplish their goals.
| Family Support Services:
Family Support Services offer families parenting education, skill building activities for children and youth, one-to-one therapeutic aides, counseling, children and youth groups, and respite. Services are individually designed by the family and their intervention team (a clinician, treatment specialist, treatment technician, and other community-based professionals) and implemented through a strength-based action plan. Services are provided in the family's home and in the community, as needed, seven days a week. Emergency program support is available 24 hours a day.

Transitional Living Services provide supports to youth (ages 16-21) who need additional assistance learning the skills to live independently in an apartment. Skill-building activities and supports are provided for youth as they transition to adulthood through implementation of a strength-based action plan. Many of the youth served in this program have previously received care in foster homes or group homes. In addition, young adults who have dual diagnoses (cognitive delay and severe mental illness) receive supports through Transitional Living Services.

Therapeutic Foster Care offers daily care and residential services in a therapeutic environment for children and youth. The foster parents are professional caregivers who provide individualized supports for children or youth residing in their home based on a strength-based action plan.
In addition, a clinician, a treatment specialist, and a treatment technician provide support to the child or youth and the foster parents as the action plan is implemented.
