Participate in family assessments, case reviews, safety planning, and individualized service planning with staff and non-offending caregivers.

Collaborate with schools, agencies, and community partners to support children's needs, educational stability, and access to services. Provide prevention education and represent the agency through school, community, outreach, and public awareness activities.
