FRC Services for Families of Kids in Care

Direct services to families may include case management, life-skills coaching, goal-setting, family and parenting programs, guidance regarding Cal Farley’s intake process, referrals to other agencies and other support services.

The success of our FRCs continues to amaze us. Families with children living at our campuses have benefited from local, more personalized contact. FRC staff members have helped prevent family situations from becoming unmanageable or explosive while waiting for a child to be admitted into one of our programs.

Family reunification efforts often fail because of a lack of readiness on the part of the family. With that in mind, FRC staff members have taught parenting skills to parents so they can provide a more structured and supportive environment in preparation for eventual reunification with their child.
