IN-HOME SUPPORTIVE SERVICES
As the result of an investigation, the agency may learn that there are
ongoing concerns in a family that could cause harm to a child. The family
is asked to agree to a voluntary In-Home Supportive Service case. This
way, a child can remain in the home while the concerns are being
addressed.
A caseworker develops a case plan with the family. This plan focuses on
the identified risk as well as the strengths of the family.
The caseworker helps the family obtain services through the agency or
through referrals to other community resources.
We continue to assess risk to the child and to monitor the parent's
progress with the case plan.
