Family Support Service
Intensive Family Preservation Program Intensive Family Preservation Program is a brief, intensive, in-home program designed to prevent the placement of children as a result of child abuse/neglect, or to assist in the reunification of children already in foster placement. The program provides home-based family therapy, crisis-intervention, parenting education, advocacy, coordination with community service providers, assistance with concrete needs, and linkage to community resources. The program is strength-based, and assists parents to improve parent-child relationships and gain self-sufficiency and stability. Families are referred for Intensive Family Preservation services by the staff of the Connecticut Department of Children and Families.
