Mission

Philosophy

• Every child deserves to be adequately cared for by his/her parent(s)
• Every parent is entitled to assistance in learning how they can better care/provide for their children
• Those children/families needing an assessment and/or therapy should have access to services within their home environment or the least restrictive, most appropriate environment
• If it is absolutely essential for children to be placed out-of-home the children should be placed in the most appropriate, family-like environment in the closest proximity to their family; every effort should be made to facilitate reunification
• If immediate reunification is not a viable alternative the most appropriate, most family like environment is essential; within the community of the family, if at all possible
• Those children who have been placed out-of-home for an extended period of time deserve intensive reunification intervention to facilitate their return home. If this is unsuccessful a permanent home should be sought for every child
• Those children in group or institutional care must be moved toward home. If circumstances prevent them from returning to their parent(s) then alternative, permanent families shall be made available
• Those adolescents in out-of-home placements who are nearing the age of majority and without family support are entitled to skills training to prepare them for adult living
