CAMBA Family Solutions (CFS) is a preventive foster care program. The program utilizes the Solution Based Casework (SBC) model which is an evidenced-informed method that prioritizes working in partnership with families. The program focuses on pragmatic solutions to difficult situations, and observes, shares and celebrates change. By identifying and targeting specific everyday events in the life of a family that have caused the family difficulty and through partnership with Families and other service providers, CFS helps families address risk to the safety of children and restore the family’s pride in their own competence – thus reducing the risk of out of home placement.
Additional support services are also provided such as parenting workshops, parent support groups, assistance with government entitlements, health concerns, referrals for treatment programs and other barriers that may be causing the family additional stress in caring for their children.
This program is funded by the NYC Administration for Children’s Services.
