Feeling overwhelmed? Not sure where to turn? The Family Care Community Partnership can help!
The FCCP provides a strength-based, team approach to assist families in working towards reaching their goals.

Eligibility
The FCCP is a preventative program serving families that have children who:
•Have serious emotional, behavioral and/or mental health challenges.
•Are at risk for abuse and/or neglect and potential involvement with DCYF.
•Are transitioning from the Youth Diversionary Program.
The Process
The Family Service Care Coordinator assists the family in identifying supports to help them in meeting their needs, both short and long term. Supports are identified through the families’ voice and choice and may include extended family, friends and community supports. The families’ culture guides the process as the family-led team helps strengthen the family and build resiliency for long term stability.
