Hillside: Therapeutic Foster Care

ADMISSIONS
Therapeutic Foster Care

Application for Admission

Hillside’s Therapeutic Foster Care program works with children ages 5-17 who have had chaotic childhood experiences and little or no exposure to stable family environments.

A team approach is used to include the birth family, educators, foster family, family consultant, legal guardian, medical professionals, therapist and/or psychiatrist, CORE/MRO mental health providers, and most importantly, the child.

Pre-placement visits with the foster family ensure the child will make a successful transition. Hillside staff members coordinate appropriate educational placements, arrange for medical and psychiatric needs, provide 24-hour on-call support and case management, provide regular respite for child and foster family, and ensure each child has an aftercare plan.
