What Works
Through a coordinated effort out agency representatives, solutions can often be developed for parents or children that help the child be more successful and leaves caregivers feeling and being less overwhelmed as they work to support their child. Additionally agency representatives feel less isolated as they work to develop plans and strategies for a child.
Our Local Care Team Will:
Help children with intensive needs receive assistance with the identification of individual needs and potential resources to meet identified needs.
Hold discussions with you to problem solve needs and systemic needs.
Refer children and families to care management entities when appropriate.
Open doors to make connections to available local and community resources.
Connect to Advocates and Family Navigator
Utilize the information gathered to improve the entire system
Discuss a request for a Voluntary Placement Agreement for a child with a development disability or a mental illness under 5-525 of the Family Law Article
