Services at this Location
Family Finding
Family Search and Engagement uses state of the art internet search technology to help identify and support development of relationships with relative and other non related caring, healthy adults who can offer enduring support and love to foster children who are without connection to a permanent life-long family. Through identification and engagement of members of the child’s extended biological (and non-related) family who can have an ongoing, meaningful presence in the child’s life, children achieve permanent family support for a successful transition to adulthood.
Full Service Partnerships
FSP is an intensive treatment program designed to serve severely emotionally disturbed children between the ages of 0-15. FSP serves not only identified children but also their family members who would otherwise not be able to access mental health services.
Outpatient Mental Health
Outpatient treatment serves Medi-Cal eligible and children with Individualized Education Plans, ages 3 to 18, and their families with assessment, individual, group and family therapy services; individual and group skill development; targeted case management and medication evaluation and support services. Service is less intensive and shorter term than the intensive in-home service array. Children are typically referred by schools, child welfare, foster care agencies, juvenile probation and County Mental Health departments.
Therapeutic Behavioral Services
Therapeutic Behavioral Services (TBS) is the result of a California lawsuit (Emily Q) creating an entitlement for children eligible for Medi-Cal and who have been hospitalized or placed in treatment group homes to targeted behavioral service that will assist them to be successful in the least restrictive environment.. These behavioral plans ensure that the function of the behavior is understood so that the child can learn behaviors that are more successful or the environment is changed to better meet the child’s needs. These services are strength-based and intended to be short term and additional to other mental health services.
Wraparound
This program was piloted at EMQ in Santa Clara County and made available State-wide with Senate Bill 163. It is designed to help children and families with complex needs that would otherwise require children be served in residential treatment settings. Funding includes both foster care funds that would have been used for residential treatment as well as mental health services funding. Flexible funding helps families meet needs that are not usually supported by traditional government programs. Services are typically provided for 12 to 18 months. With assistance from the Wraparound team, families are able to locate and secure resources in their own community, develop a family safety plan, and learn to apply the planning process to solve problems unique to their own family with skills that will serve them in the future.
