YPC is a permanency-focused program which assists youth in the foster care system who are lacking natural and permanent connections with family. YPC services are provided through a DCF contract with youth who are in DCF custody and reside in a foster care or program setting. Youth are identified by their DCF teams and are referred for the program, overseen by a contract manager at DCF Central Office.
The YPC Clinician at The Home for Little Wanderers engages the youth through regular in-person meetings and then works with youth to identify and engage extended family members in the permanency planning process for /with the youth. The Clinician searches for and engages family network, considers what steps are needed to build a team around the youth, and then considers needs related to permanency readiness.
The goal of YPC is to connect youth with safe, healthy adults; and to ensure that the connection is sustainable and allows youth to feel cared for by adults who will be in their life permanently.
