Program areas at Kaleidoscope
Kaleidoscope's foster care program is specifically designed to serve children and youth who require more intensive services as a result of specialized mental health, behavioral, medical or pregnancy/parenting needs. When a child is determined to be at risk in their caregivers' home, we provide foster care placement and adoption services and we recruit and train foster parents that can provide the care youth need.
Through the enhanced clinical community support (eccs) program, we provide immediate, short-term services to stabilize youth in their home after inpatient psychiatric hospitalization. Our specialized community clinicians collaborate with case management teams, clinical providers, young people, and families, to ensure that youth have all of the supports they need to return to their home and remain stable with their family.
The education & training voucher (etv), norman and youth cash assistance programs provide an array of emergency cash assistance for child welfare services. The agency acts as the fiscal agent for dcfs and issues checks on behalf of eligible clients as directed by dcfs.
Other programs including the summer internship program, transition to adult services, system of care, the intact family services program, the independent living program and others.
