Receiving Center Stabilization Team
The Receiving Center Stabilization Team has been developed to meet the need for the difficult to place children who frequent the Children’s Receiving Center. The primary need being met for these children is to move them out of the Center within twenty-three hours and facilitate their stabilization back out into the community.
Crisis Program
The number of children we prevent from being unnecessarily hospitalized or institutionalized measures the effectiveness of the Child and Adolescent Mobile Crisis Program (CACP). EMQ FamiliesFirst’s CACP has an impressive record of preventing unnecessary hospitalization and maintaining children with their families or in the least restrictive environment. A client survey is administered to measure satisfaction with services provided.
