Comprehensive Child & Family Treatment (CCFT)

Intensive In-Home Support for Kids and Families in Crisis

About This Program

We help children and teens (ages 5–17) who are struggling with serious mental health or behavioral challenges and are at risk of being placed outside the home. We provide short-term, in-home support to help children and families stay safely together. 

We Serve Youth who: 

  • Are at risk of being placed in juvenile justice, DCS custody, or psychiatric care 
  • Have a mental health diagnosis and serious behavioral symptoms 
  • Have not improved with less intensive support like outpatient therapy 
  • Have shown a recent decline in school, home, or in the community 

What we offer: 

  • Stabilize crises and support recovery with personalized counseling, crisis response, and medication guidance. 
  • Build skills for everyday life through behavior coaching and practical tools for children and caregivers. 
  • Guide families through systems by offering advocacy and help navigating mental health and community services.
