Intensive Care Coordination

Intensive Care Coordination using the evidenced based High Fidelity Wraparound Model was developed to keep families safely together while effectively helping children with emotional and behavioral health needs thrive in their homes, schools, and communities.

What we Do

Intensive Care Coordination (ICC) is a service tailored to a child’s and family needs. This program serves ages 0-21 who struggle with emotional, mental, developmental, behavioral, substance use, or other health challenges that also impact their home, community and school interactions.

Intensive Care Coordination builds a team around the family, to include professional supports as well as natural supports (friends, family, neighbors, etc) who will participate in the planning process to help the youth/family achieve their goals and meets their needs.

The team meets a minimum of 1x per month in each stage of the ICC High Fidelity Wraparound Model: Engagement, Planning, Implementation and Transition. The Intensive Care Coordinator and Family Peer support conduct weekly face to face check-ins with the youth/family to follow up on action steps and provide support. They are also coordinating with all other team members (professionals and natural supports) on a weekly basis to ensure consistency.

The length of enrollment with the process is approx. 6 months, dependent upon family and their ability to make progress toward their identified needs with support from their team. The process includes brainstorming and being creative in identifying opportunities and support for the youth and family in their community.
