Plan of Safe Care

The goal of a Plan of Safe Care is to ensure that our clients, your child and your family receive the services necessary to advance personal and family recovery and resiliency.  Our goal is to accomplish this by building on the strengths you have as an individual, family, and within your community, so that together we can reduce the risk associated to infants who may have been affected by prenatal exposure to alcohol or drugs.

Client participation in a Plan of Safe Care is voluntary and in keeping with 39.01(1)(b), F.S., we strive to work with you in a constructive, supportive, and non-adversarial manner to provide you with the best prevention and intervention strategies to accomplish our mutual goals.
