Professional Foster Care Pilot Program - Envoi Associates News Release: 4/3/2024
We're thrilled to announce that Envoi Associates is pioneering a groundbreaking foster care pilot program in Northern Colorado in collaboration with the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS). As we embark on this transformative journey, we're looking for dedicated professionals with backgrounds in behavioral health or education to join us in providing specialized care to children and youth with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) and acute mental and behavioral health needs.
This innovative program, initiated by CDHS, aims to create a nurturing and supportive environment for children and youth aged eight to 18 who require specialized therapeutic care. Envoi Associates is committed to matching approved therapeutic and professional foster homes with children and youth based on their unique needs and presenting behaviors. We believe that with the right support and expertise, we can make a profound difference in the lives of these young individuals.
As part of our professional foster parent pilot program, we're offering compensation, evidence-based training, 24/7 crisis support, and weekly in-home consultation and support to our caregivers. We understand the importance of equipping our foster parents with the tools and resources they need to provide the highest standard of care to children and youth in need.
If you have a passion for making a positive impact and possess a background in behavioral health or education, we invite you to join us in this important endeavor. Your expertise and dedication will play a crucial role in shaping the future of foster care in our community.
For more information about this transformative program and how you can get involved, please contact Amber Lopez, Director of Youth Services, at alopez@envoiassociates.com or Candice Moore, Outreach and Licensing Specialist at cmoore@envoiassociates.com. They're here to answer any questions you may have and provide support every step of the way.
