- The program serves 50 Westchester families annually who have at least one family member in substance abuse treatment and whose child(ren) are determined to be in need of services.
- Each Clinical Case Manager works with 10 families at a time, and will continue providing services to each family until all identified needs have been met.
- Any substance abusing client in outpatient treatment with children can voluntarily be screened by their counselor, and if the screening indicates a need, the entire family can be referred to our program for clinical case management services.
