CBCAP – Project TEAMS
Project TEAMS – Together for Empowerment and Accountability to Maximize Self-Sufficiency is part of the federally funded Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) program. The program is designed to strengthen families with young children by providing coordinated wrap-around family-centered services and support that promotes the safety and well-being of children and reduces parent stress. A community network coordinator works with the larger provider community network in building capacity, organizing and delivering services to families in an integrated, strength-based and comprehensive way. Each eligible family works with a lead agency and the overall provider network to develop and implement a family roadmap for achieving their stated goal(s). The comprehensive system of care includes family assessment of resources and needs, linkage to a medical home and necessary wrap-around (flexible) services. This project serves families in Dallas, Hickory and Polk counties.
