Project Description: |
The initial intervention plan for the pilot project is designed to address these issues in a prevention and early intervention effort, which if successful will reduce the number of new cases entering the dependency system, and positively impact the stress on treatment provider's current service capacity. For this pilot to have the maximum beneficial effect on the at risk children in these three counties, it must also support treatment needs of those parents already in the dependency system. |
