TFCO-C provides support and treatment for children aged 7 to 11 years of age.
The TFCO programs provide high level of support and intervention in a home like setting through the care of an accredited foster carer. The TFCO model includes several components such as: training and support for the foster carer/s, family therapy for the young person’s parent/aftercare placement; skills training for the young person; education support and case management and consultation.
An individualized treatment plan is developed for each young person in the program with goals that focus on improving the young person’s emotional and behavioural functioning; promoting positive educational outcomes; and building strong family relationships.
