D13 The Three Cs: CFT; CANS and Case Plans

Created Feb. 7, 2024 by Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice

The Child and Family Team (CFT); Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS) assessment tool; and case plans are interconnected and inextricably linked. All three processes must adhere to fidelity and timeline requirements; which are intended to significantly improve the care experience for each and every family involved in the foster care system.  Understanding these important processes and connections under the context of the Integrated Core Practice Model help build a strengths-based and outcomes-focused environment for families to help them reach and attain their goals.  This workshop will provide information around policy guidance and best practices to support quality case-planning.
