Intensive Aftercare Prevention Program (IAPP)
Provides a short-term and in-home prevention program for support and skill-building services to families with children at risk of being removed from the home. Children at risk may exhibit behaviors such as assaulting others, running away, engaging in theft, vandalism, or drug abuse, and may be disruptive in school.
Services include, but are not limited to, strengthening the family unit by teaching adaptive parenting and safety skills to parents-guardians, teaching self-management, decision-making skills with identified youth, assistance with transportation, budget, and housing, and case planning for child development.
