Program Description:

The program at Pacific Lodge provides a safe, predictable, organized and supportive environment where residents are taught and encouraged to overcome maladaptive and self defeating behaviors and are challenged to acquire and practice pro-social behaviors. Pacific Lodge’s highly structured residential treatment program requires the boys to participate in personalized program components. The clinical services provided by in-house professional staff are the core elements of treatment for each resident at Pacific Lodge. A carefully selected group of professionals with masters or doctoral degrees provides individual, group and family therapy. The aim of Pacific Lodge is to fully understand each child’s psychosocial make-up. For this reason each resident admitted to Pacific Lodge receives the following assessment: • Psychiatric evaluation • Psychosocial evaluation • Educational assessment • Vocational assessment • Alcohol and chemical dependency assessment • Nutritional assessment • Complete physical and medical history evaluation Our consulting psychiatrist assesses boys at Pacific Lodge within the first week of admission. A multidisciplinary treatment team regularly assesses each boy every 90 days in conjunction with the required Needs and Services plan, inviting all stakeholders to participate in the formation of a comprehensive treatment plan. In addition, the cottage supervisor, case manager and resident meet with school personnel every 6-8 weeks for joint educational assessment. Recognizing that each resident is unique, Pacific Lodge customizes an individual treatment plan for each youth. These treatment elements help residents develop communication and relationship skills, strengthen personal identity and foster pro social attitudes and behaviors. Based on the residents’ ages and needs, they are placed in one of the four residential cottages. Each cottage is staffed with two therapists, a case manager, and eight child care specialist who provide the therapeutic care and treatment for each boy and monitor and coordinate the ancillary services prescribed in the treatment plan. Evidence based measures are maintained by various members of the treatment team and reflect individual growth in the areas of psycho-social functioning, compliance with rules, emotional development in therapy, educational development in reading, math skills and classroom expectations. Each resident’s progress is measured by his participation in individual and peer group sessions, integration into the cottage milieu, and performance and behavior within the elements of his personal program. The treatment team reviews clinical reports monthly and as the individual needs of the child change and/or evolve, re-assessments are conducted to make sure the treatment program remains appropriate for the boy. Residents’ achievement in sports, activities, work programs and community educational programs are also factors used in measuring outcomes. On going written reports from families following home visits provide data for evaluation of developing family communication and cohesiveness and are discussed as part of family therapy. All measures and assessments are provided to the placing worker in the monthly visits, as well as in Quarterly report formats, which discuss the above assessments and outcome/results Pacific Lodge – A catalyst for change The day to day structure within our treatment program relies on Behavior Modification to initiate change in negative behaviors. There are clearly defined expectations throughout the program which emphasize pro-social norms. For example: with positive behavior boys are able to earn additional privileges in their program. If a boy engages in negative behavior they will receive restriction of privileges or work-related consequences. Through this structure, our boys are provided with consistent and predictable limits which create a safe environment for all. Our mission is to: Acknowledge the belief that every facet of a boy’s day provides him with the opportunity for meaningful learning and change. Provide our residents with the highest quality professional, licensed, and supportive treatment program in the most cost-effective manner possible. Establish treatment goals to include individual, group, and family therapy, psychological testing and psychiatric consultation. Provide an accredited and individualized academic program. Help each child realize his full potential by offering vocational training, social skills development, and exposure to a wide variety of well-supervised activities that will lead to the development of tangible skills, build self-esteem, and a bright future. Provide support necessary to assist each boy to become self sufficient, reunited with family or transitioned to independent living. The goal of this program is to work towards reunifying the residents with their families and/or transitioning the residents into an independent living program. Each resident is provided with counseling, structured living, and educational programs to assist in successfully working towards “Building Productive Lives” through completing school and developing skills that will give them the opportunity to live and work in the community post discharge. .

Program Type:

Family, school and community based services, Foster family agency - Treatment program, Mental health services, Mental health services - Therapeutic behavioral services, Transition age youth services

Program Description:

Established in 1966, River Oak provides mental health and social services to emotionally and behaviorally challenged children and youth (birth to 21) in the Greater Sacramento area. River Oak offers a comprehensive array of traditional and innovative services through twelve programs offered at four sites throughout Sacramento. These programs are organized into three service groups – Early Intervention and Prevention, Intensive In-home, and Outpatient Mental Health – which are all enhanced by such services as Nursing, Psychology, Psychiatry, Family and Youth Advocacy, and Training. Through our wide range of services, close to 2,000 children, youth, and their families annually are given a chance to develop necessary life skills and make significant positive changes in their lives. River Oak’s twelve programs are organized in the following three service groups: 1. Early Intervention and Prevention Group provides services to the youngest children in the greater Sacramento community, as well as children of any age, whose families need support and resources to live together safely and avoid the need for more intensive and expensive interventions later. This service group includes: • Building Blocks, a parenting program that aids children from birth to six years old who exhibit developmental or behavioral problems and are at risk of being removed from their homes. • Family Resource Center provides comprehensive services and activities that educate, develop skills, and connect families to resources in the community. • Therapeutic Pre-School provides mental health services to emotionally and behaviorally challenged children, ages three to five, to help improve behavior and overall school readiness. • The Incredible Years, an evidence-based practice proven effective for reducing young children’s aggression and behavior problems and increasing social competence at home and at school. • Family and Youth Advocacy empowers families and youth through giving them the information and resources needed to manage the treatment process. 2. Intensive In-Home/Community Based Service Group strives to help children and families live together in culturally appropriate environments that respect and encourage resourcefulness and independence toward achieving a safe and empowered lifestyle. This service group includes: • Wraparound provides services that help children and families achieve stability, self-reliance, and connection to family and community so that they will be able to handle their ongoing needs without continued intensive professional supports. The goal of Wraparound is to transition the child from group home care to live with their relatives or biological families. • FOCUS works with children who are at serious risk of psychiatric hospitalization, residential care, or loss of school placement due to their behaviors. • Multi-dimensional Treatment Foster Care, an evidence-based practice that works with children living with a foster family as well as with the child’s biological family to ensure a smooth transition back home. • Multi-systemic Therapy, an evidence-based practice that empowers parents with the skills and resources needed to independently address the difficulties that arise in raising teenagers and empowers youth to cope with family, peer, school, and neighborhood problems. • Functional Family Therapy, an evidence-based practice that strengthens families through intensive positive relationship building. • Teaching Pro-Social Skills, an evidence-based practice that works to equip youth with emotional competencies. 3. Outpatient Mental Health Service Group includes goal-oriented individual and family therapy provided in settings where the families are most comfortable (home, office, and community settings).

SCH - Crisis Nurseries

Program Type:

Foster family agency - Non-treatment program

Program Description:

The Sacramento Crisis Nurseries offer shelter care for children and support to families experiencing a crisis in two Sacramento County locations. Children (birth through age 5) can stay up to 30 days while their parents seek help and long term solutions to their problems. The majority of parents coming to the Sacramento Crisis Nursery North (SCNN) are young, single mothers on welfare who are often impacted by medical issues, mental illness, post partum depression and isolation. Mothers bring their children to the nursery because they have few friends, relatives, or other resources to help when they are in crisis. Hospital social workers place children at the crisis nursery when a mom must be hospitalized and there is no one to care for their children. Moms come to the nursery when they have a mental health diagnosis and must be stabilized on medication before they can parent their child. Women with newborns call the nursery with post partum depression and can only seek help if they have a safe place to leave their infant. Parents can access emergency day respite from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. or 24 hour respite for up to 30 days. The Case Manager provides counseling, support and referrals to needed services. The Case Manager works with hospital social workers, mental health providers, and support groups to aid these young women who have unmet health needs. These women will not be able to successfully parent their infant or young child without resolving the health and mental health issues they are experiencing. Counseling, parenting classes, housing assistance and referral services are available

Program Type:

Foster family agency

Program Description:

Transitions Children's Services (TCS) was founded in the summer of 2009 by Brian Van Anne, MSW and Joe T. Martinez, CPA. Mr. Van Anne brings close to fifteen years of social work experience to this agency, eight of which he served as a foster family agency social worker, foster family agency supervisor and foster family agency director for another local, well respected foster family agency. Mr. Van Anne has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Work and Master of Social Work degree from California State University, Fresno. Mr. Martinez brings over twenty years worth of experience in financial management and oversight of companies ranging from large for-profit entities to social service, county funded programs. Mr. Martinez has a Bachelor of Science degree from California State University, Fresno and a Certified Public Accounting Certificate from the California State Board of Accountancy. Mr. Martinez also has tremendous love for children and feels that this agency will serve and an excellent way to improve the lives of those who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned. TCS’ purpose is to provide quality, culturally competent treatment foster care services to children and families in the child welfare/foster care system. TCS will partner in philosophy and delivery of service with surrounding counties in order to meet the needs of their consumers. TCS aims to use a Strength Based approach in recruiting, training and delivering foster care services with the underlying theme being that foster care is a temporary living arrangement for children; reunification is the goal and cornerstone of case planning which will be supported throughout the treatment plan process. TCS will offer case management services in the form of weekly home visits, the formulation of treatment plans, foster parent support services and crisis intervention services. TCS social workers will be expected to make at least bi-weekly home visits to the foster home making face to face contact with the consumer in placement. In most cases, TCS social workers will make weekly contact to ensure the highest quality of oversight possible. After each contact, TCS social workers will write a narrative in the form of a case note documenting the nature of the visit. Treatment plans such as Needs & Service Plans and Quarterly Reports are done at intake and every three months there after. These assessments will serve as the foundation of the treatment plan process. Also, TCS social workers will be responsible for writing Incident Reports, when any unusual or unfortunate incident occurs and Transition Reports, when a consumer is discharged from the agency. All reports will be formulated by TCS social workers with input from consumers (based on their age and ability to formulate cognitive thoughts) county case managers, foster parents, mental health clinicians, school personal, biological family members, court officials and any other authorized representatives. During, but not limited to home visits, TCS social workers will offer support to foster parents. This might be in the form of face to face conversation about the consumer or target goal the team is striving to achieve, assistance to new foster families who might have questions about the foster care process, reassurance and support to a foster parent who might be questioning his/her ability to foster or could be in the form of transportation or supervision of a consumer. TCS social workers will be available around the clock to provide crisis intervention services. This includes the assigned social worker during normal business hours and a rotating emergency response cell phone allowing a TCS representative to be available to any county personnel, foster child or foster family twenty-four hours a day. TCS social workers will be Masters level graduates in compliance with CCR 88065.3(b) (1). This level of education will allow for social workers to provide therapeutic intervention during normal and crises situations. TCS social workers will assist in the formulation of treatment goals that will be addressed by the treatment team (to consist of TCS social worker, county case manager, consumer, foster parent and any other authorized representative). TCS will also partner with the County and incorporate their intended services for the consumer like mental health counseling, psychiatric assessment and services, biological family visits and treatment team staffings. TCS will recruit, train and certify perspective foster families under our State issued facility number. We will use a comprehensive training model that addresses CCR regulations (88088(5)(B) and 88069.7(c)(5), including but not limited to initial and ongoing training in child abuse identification, prevention and treatment. TCS will also incorporate training on Fresno County’s Family to Family initiative; the core being that foster families serve as role models and offer support to families during the reunification process.
