Overview
Casa Pacifica’s Intensive Services Foster Care (ISFC) program provides specialized mental health and behavioral support services to children who have a history of complex traumas, psychiatric hospitalization and failed placements in the foster care system.
ISFC is designed to provide permanence for children and youth who would otherwise not have a chance to live with a safe and loving family, emphasizing careful resource parent and child matching.
Who Is Eligible?
ISFC children need trauma-informed resource parents who can provide consistency, safety, empathy and understanding.
Resource parents must undergo rigorous child-specific training in order to care for their foster children, as individualized care protocols become part of their daily lives. These resource parents also receive focused in-home support and comprehensive case management by Casa Pacifica staff who are trained and educated to high IFSC standards.
Team Approach
Casa Pacifica provides a team approach to ISFC, comprised of a clinician, social worker and support specialist who offer individualized counseling and emotional support, mentoring and modeling skills for both the child and the resource parent.
Casa Pacifica is an approved ISFC provider in both Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties.
