What Works

HOMEBUILDERS is an evidence-based program designed to encompass a “Two Generational” (2Gen) Approach (illustration attached) to intervening with families. Two-generation approaches focus on creating opportunities for and addressing needs of both children and the adults in their lives together.  

Success Story: A referral for the program was received for a mother of five (5) children, one of which is a substance affected newborn.  The mother did have custody of her three (3) year old daughter, however did not have custody of her three (3) older children (two (2) sons and a daughter).  The older three (3) children were in the custody of family members.  The mother was living in an extremely small trailer, not big enough for her family, and had no consistent income.  Throughout the program, she was able to regain custody of her two (2) sons, receive temporary cash assistance, energy assistance, and was able to move into a home big enough for the entire family with rental assistance.  The home is on the same street where the oldest daughter is living, who has been able to visit and has started staying with the intentions of moving back home soon.  The mother has been compliant with substance abuse treatment, in addition to passing all drug testing required.  Due to the accomplishments of the family, Social Services has planned to close the Child Welfare case.
