How We Work

Our case managers have morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend availability. Depending on the case status, our providers can serve clients in our facility or the community, aiming to complete services in the client's home and see the case through to completion.

The programs and curriculum our agency uses are evidence-based and designed to help clients and children interact successfully within the family structure, achieve DCS and team-mandated goals, engage in services, attain positive outcomes, strengthen the parent-child bond, or facilitate alternative family engagement.

Our providers are well trained and capable of assisting families with supervised parenting time, evidence-based curriculum, basic family needs, community supports, life skills, applications, or any identified needs or goals.

Every child thrives in a safe, loving, forever home.
