Helping children, families, and communities grow stronger together.

Providing Technical Assistance

In an effort to connect more young people with enduring families than Casey Family Services could serve directly, the organization established the Casey Center for Effective Child Welfare Practice, its technical assistance department. The Casey Center’s offerings include:

Strategic Planning, Assessment, and Project Development to identify and dismantle barriers to permanence and design practice reforms that improve child and family outcomes.

Project Implementation, including working with managers and supervisors to introduce new practices and implement plans with clear goals, strategies, and outcomes.

Training on permanency practice, the Permanency Teaming Process, youth- and family-involvement strategies, integrated practice (which combines preparation for adulthood with permanency practice), permanency preparation, post-permanency services, and other topics.

Peer-to-peer Learning opportunities to assist organizations and partners in jointly identifying and solving problems to benefit children and families.

Resources, often developed in collaboration with other partners, including publications, newsletters, and Web-based tools.
