Family Service (FS) Plan (SCD 2392)

Upon referral and agreement by the client, the Family Service Plan (SCD 2392) is developed. The FS multi-disciplinary team members, including the Employment and Housing Focus Team, as appropriate and based on the client’s needs, meet with the client to discuss the services needed. The FS Plan focus is on Goals, Plan Do, Review; and CalWORKs 2.0 framework. Refer to Welfare-to-Work (WTW) Plan CalWORKs 2.0. If the client agrees to participate in the Family Services Program, then the services are incorporated into an FS Plan. The services are included within either a stand-alone [FS only] or an integrated WTW agreement, which includes FS and WTW activities. Based on information and input from the FS Team and other community partners, the FS Associate Employment Counselor (AEC)/Employment Counselor (EC) will complete the FS Plan.

FS Plans identify activities, needs, barriers, services arrangements, resources, actions and timelines that are needed to stabilize the family. The maximum length of the FS Plan is twelve months. Extensions will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Once the FS Plan is developed by the FS AEC/EC and signed by the client, upon request, the case is transferred and assigned to one of the FS AECs/ECs. The FS AEC/EC and multi-disciplinary team will closely monitor the case.

CalWORKs 2.0

At the point of contact with the client during the FS process, My Road Map, Potholes & Detours (SCD 2503) is to be reviewed.
