Partnerships to Demonstrate the Effectiveness of Supportive Housing for Families in the Child Welfare System
The Children's Bureau will award targeted five-year grants to support the development or expansion of triage procedures for families who come to the attention of the child welfare system due to severe housing issues and high service needs. Funded programs will provide supportive housing services that integrate community services, case management services for children and parents, trauma-informed interventions and evidence-based mental health services. The grant program will include evaluations of process and implementation outcomes.
