Sobriety Treatment and Recovery Teams (START)
START - More Information START brings together what is known about addiction services treatment, good child welfare practices, and family preservation practices into a model that can work with these families' special needs. The population targeted for this program is crack cocaine-using women with children in the child welfare system. Unique to this program is the pairing of a child welfare social worker and an advocate who is a former substance abuser and, often, a parent of a child in the child welfare system. |
