Family Services

Resource Center for Parents and Children partners with the State of Alaska Office of Children’s Services (OCS) to provide services to families in an effort to prevent the out of home placement of children as well as to reunify families whose children are in state custody.  The Family Services Program provides supervised visitation, home visitation, parenting education, and family assessment.  All referrals for services must come

from OCS.

 

Program Goals

  • Increase safety factors within the family

  • Prevent and/or decrease the incidence of repeat maltreatment

  • Increase family functioning

  • Decrease the number of children entering State custody

Referral Process

All referrals must come from OCS.  A wait-list is maintained by OCS staff and clients enter into the Family Services Program as openings become available. Although all families must be referred by OCS, families do not necessarily have to maintain an open or active case with OCS.  If you are interested in participating in the Family Services Program, speak with your OCS caseworker to obtain a referral.
