FOSTER CARE - HEPHZIBAH OFFERS AN INTENSIVE SPECIALIZED FOSTER CARE PROGRAM THAT BUILDS ON A UNIQUE CONCEPT OF TEAM. FOCUS IS ON FINDING FOSTER CARE PLACEMENT FOR THE EMOTIONALLY DISTURBED / BEHAVIORALLY DISORDERED CHILD. HEPHZIBAH'S TEAMS ARE FLEXIBLE IN THAT THEIR COMPOSITION IS DICTATED BY THE NEEDS OF THE CHILD. TEAM MEMBERS ALWAYS INCLUDE THE ASSIGNED CASE MANAGER, CASE AIDE, FOSTER FAMILY, AND SUPERVISOR. OTHER AGENCY STAFF ARE INCLUDED AS DICTATED BY THE CHILD'S NEEDS. TREATMENT PLANS AND DECISIONS ARE MADE BY FORMING CONSENSUS IN A TEAMWORK FRAMEWORK. FOSTER PARENTS ARE SPECIALLY TRAINED AND SUPPORTED IN ORDER TO PROVIDE A CORRECTIVE EMOTIONAL AND HEALING ENVIRONMENT TO CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN VICTIMS OF ABUSE AND/OR NEGLECT.
