Child & Family Services

 

Picture of happy familyChild and Family  offers a broad range of programs and services designed specifically to meet the specialized needs of children and adolescents who are experiencing emotional and/or behavioral challenges.
 
The goal throughout all of our programs and services is to provide young people and their families with the support they need to function productively in their homes, schools and community settings.
 
Family involvement is considered an important part of treatment.  When possible, parents/caretakers take part not only in their children's treatment but also in parenting groups that teach strategies to improve the parent/child relationship.
