Home Study and Post Release Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children - Morrison Child and Family Services (Morrison) is excited to propose continuation and expansion of services in our Home Study and Post Release Services program for fiscal year 2023. The program opened in 2017 and has severed youth from all over the world. The program is split between Home Studies, which occur prior to a youth being placed with a sponsor and Post Release Services that comprises of case management services for the youth and sponsor. In a home study, a case manager works with a sponsor to ensure their home is ready to house the youth being unified. After placement, a Post Release Services Case Manager works with the youth and family in a number of areas to support the youth including: education, legal services, medication and mental health services, and other services like connecting with specialized local services. The goal of this program is to ensure the safe and timely unification of youth with their family and supporting them. Since 1947, Morrison Child and Family Services (Morrison) has delivered specialized services to children, from birth through age 18, and families coping with adversity and trauma in the greater Portland area. Our award-winning programs prioritize equity and inclusion, supporting the growth of underserved children to enhance their safety, development, education, and future success. Morrison provides much-needed services to approximately 6,000 children each year, youth and families facing abuse, neglect, domestic violence, mental health concerns, drug and alcohol addiction, criminality and other challenges. Through our Outpatient, Education & Outreach, Day Treatment, Residential, Shelter and Foster Care programs our agency provides innovative, evidence-based services to at-risk youth who may not otherwise have a place to turn for developmentally-appropriate mental health services.
