Parent’s Case Management

Recovery and reunification are possible.

If you are a parent or caregiver working on your recovery and are in need of support and resources to help build a substance-free future for your children our Parent’s Case Management program can help.

What to expect. 

Trauma Screening. A member of our team will screen you for adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). This screening allows our case managers to identify unresolved traumatic events that create stressors leading to high-risk behaviors. After identifying trauma, you will begin the process of moving parents to increased health and wellness by disrupting the cycle of substance use. This in turn will promote positive attachment with your child and support effective parenting.

Coordination and Advocacy. A member of our team will help identify other needs and assist parents with connecting to other resources within the community, including some offered directly at Crisis & Counseling Centers.

Parenting Groups. You will be invited to participate in our Nurturing Parenting for Families in Recovery group offered in partnership with KVCAP‘s Kennebec Family Enrichment Council and the Somerset Family Enrichment Council.
