CHANGE # 10-2009
DECEMBER 2009
CPS In-Home Services are a legally mandated and integral part of the Children’s Services continuum and is provided to families who have had a Substantiation of abuse, neglect, dependency, or a finding of Services Needed (for more detailed information on possible case decision findings, please refer to Chapter VIII; Section 1408 – Investigative and Family Assessments). The purpose of CPS In-Home Services is to maintain the safety of the child while helping the parent/caretaker to learn more effective parenting practices.
North Carolina’s practice model unites System of Care philosophy with our Multiple Response System. MRS and SOC will help North Carolina achieve the safety of children while helping the parent/caretaker to learn more effective parenting practices. To understand this practice model it is important to understand what it means to provide a family-centered approach to the delivery of services.
