Intensive Family Preservation is an intensive, short-term crisis and clinical intervention, family education program designed to prevent unnecessary out of home placements for families.

Families whose children are at risk of placement receive services in their home by trained therapists who are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for support and crisis intervention.

The program works with families to identify their strengths and empower individuals to accomplish their identified goals.

Culturally competent services are available to Latino families.

Eligibility: Families living in towns served by either the Willimantic or Manchester Department of Children and Families. Referrals to this program are limited to DCF only.

Funded by the Department of Children and Families.
