Child/Family teams
You will be part of a team and your child can be part of the team if he/she wants to. This team will include different people who will work with you to help your family. We hope that you will pick people who are important to you and your child. These people may be relatives, friends, neighbors, or others. It is very important that there are people on your team who will still be in your life after the "professionals" are gone. Your team will also be made up of a CCF Coordinator and Dane County Department of Human Services Social Worker and may contain teachers, therapists, etc. You and the team will create a Plan of Care that will cover the strengths and needs of your family. A Plan of Care explains how your team will meet your needs and will include the supports and services used to help. The team updates Plans once every three month.Team meetings are held every month and sometimes more often. Your CCF Coordinator will try to schedule meetings at times and places that work best for you. It is important that you take part in team meetings and talk with your coordinator about what you would like to see happen at those meetings. It is our general policy to only go to the meetings that parents are also invited to go attend. Please tell your CCF Coordinator if you have any questions about your team.
