Now united with the Family Alliance
Request more information and get involved.
PHFS and the Family Alliance is pleased to offer the new service of Family Partnership Facilitation. We have several trained facilitators on staff and have successfully completed sessions in Appomattox, Prince Edward and Charlotte Counties. The Family Partnership facilitator brings together children (when appropriate), family members, service providers, caseworkers, school representatives, and any other influential individual in the child's life to facilitate family goal-setting and decision making that will serve in the best interest of the child. The goal is to avoid an out-of-home or out-of-community placement, if possible.
The hope with Family Partnership is that all family members have a voice in the decision making process.
Family Partnership meetings are also initiated when a child is transitioning back home following removal.
