Key Message: Allocate Resources to Engage Families In Services and Supports

Please Share

Child welfare systems should consider allocating resources to engage adoptive and guardianship families in supports and services that begin prior to finalization and continue post permanence.

It is important for child welfare systems to link families to services prior to the attainment of permanence and to continue to offer supports and services after permanence has been achieved. Once permanence has been achieved, investment in low-cost outreach strategies can facilitate on-going support and connections with families. These strategies are designed to inform families of services and supports that can be accessed when a family identifies an immediate service need.
