< Back A Complete Guide to the Family First Prevention Services Act Child Welfare The Family First Prevention Services Act has become law. It includes the biggest change to the structure of federal child welfare finance since the establishment of the Title IV-E entitlement in 1980.

The law includes several other child welfare-related updates to federal policy. So what is actually in this thing? Youth Services Insider pored over all 103 pages of the law. Here is a complete, three-part breakdown of its two major sections and all of the additional provisions inside Family First. GO TO WEBSITE

State College http://www.sfionline.org - Venango Training and Development Center - Seneca http://www.vtdc.org -Threshold Rehabilitation Services - Reading https://www.trsinc.org The Fairweather Lodge Program helps people reintegrate themselves into the community by providing emotional support, a place to live, and employment for its members. The program was developed by Dr. George Fairweather in California in 1963 as a result of extensive experimental research. In his studies, Dr. Fairweather found that people with serious mental illness are less likely to return to the hospital when they live and work together as a group, rather than live and work individually. His research also showed that the lodge program helps people stay in the community longer, provides more employment opportunities, and costs less than conventional treatment programs. Because of the success of the original groups, the Community Lodge Program has expanded considerably during the past 25 years and there are now lodges across the nation. Fairweather Lodge for Veterans in Pennsylvania In April of 2016, OMHSAS made state funds available for the start-up of a statewide veteran Fairweather Lodge Initiative. OMHSAS was also awarded a federal Money Follows the Person (MFP) grant to develop Veteran specific Fairweather Lodges.
