• The CANS also helps identify family strengths and highlight the needs/challenges of the youth/family. We highlight and utilize the strengths and focus our attention on the needs as a team. Your team is called CFT, Child and Family Team, which is created by you and your youth and made up of a behavioral health support, family peer support, child serving community system partners such as child welfare, juvenile justice, education system, developmental disabilities support, family, loved ones, friends, and myself. The CFT meetings are at the least once monthly and several check-ins throughout the month. Together we will create a plan called System of Care - SOC which is a family driven, youth guided, community based, and a culturally and linguistic plan. All services are provided in your home, community setting of your choice, and/or by Telehealth/Zoom.
