May 2008 - Aug 2009
A preventive service agency which provides crisis intervention to families currently involved in child protective services. The goal was to provide the necessary referrals and monitoring to ensure the family stabilized and the children remained with their care givers. I carried a caseload of thirteen families and assessed the needs of the family. I provided necessary psychiatric, medical, educational, housing, and vocational referrals. I conducted weekly home visits to ensure their living environment was adequate and the children's basic needs were being met.
