\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Boys Town South Florida\u2019s mission is to change the way America cares for children and families. Our vision is an America where children and families can receive the effective, compassionate care they need to be healthy in body, mind, and spirit. Boys Town South Florida respectfully requests support from The Charles and Joan
\nHermanowski Family Foundation to help children and families navigate complex formal care systems through our Care Coordination Services (CCS). This intervention program is designed to support youth involved in at least one formal care system, such as mental health, substance use, juvenile justice, or special education. The program focuses on preventing child abuse and neglect by empowering parents to make positive changes in
\ntheir children\u2019s lives. Over 70% of families served are single parent-led households facing challenges like poverty, trauma, limited support systems, and untreated developmental or mental health concerns. Highly trained Family Consultants provide weekly 2 -hour home visits for 6\u20139 months, collaborating with families and providers such as school staff, therapists, case managers, probation officers, and attorneys to advocate for each families\u2019 individual needs. In 2025 alone, nearly 404 children and 194 families were served and impacted across these service milestones:
\n\u2022 Engagement: Build trust by addressing urgent needs such as food insecurity, health, and housing.
\n\u2022 Assessment and Service Planning: Identify strengths, needs, support, and risk factors while collaboratively creating service goals.
\n\u2022 Service Coordination: Connect families with community resources (e.g., therapy, psychiatry, tutoring, food assistance) and help them navigate complex systems across home, school, court, and medical settings.
\n\u2022 Parenting Skills Development: Equip parents with evidence-based parenting strategies to improve communication and monitor children\u2019s safety.
\n\u2022 Youth Skills Training: Teach essential skills such as self-awareness, empathy, decision-making, and emotional regulation.
