The Colorado Children's Congregate Care Resiliency Opportunity Project (CROP) implements an innovative trauma-informed resiliency-based collaborative model designed to prevent and reduce congregate care placements for children in child welfare/juvenile justice. Seven Colorado Department of Human Services Child Welfare offices have partnered together to expand their current trauma-informed system efforts to develop and employ new approaches to identify, assess, and intervene with their most vulnerable, yet most challenging children. CROP Prevention Model objectives will screen children and their caregivers for trauma, provide comprehensive neurodevelopmental trauma assessments screening positive for trauma, and develop resiliency-based case planning based on the assessment findings. Resiliency-based strategies, built upon developing relatedness, mastery, and affect regulation skills for children/caregivers will then be implemented through intensive in-home coaching programs to stabilize placements.Simultaneously, children will receive Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, while caregivers will receive evidence-based community-based trauma treatments. To empower caseworkers, congregate care staff, and clinicians with increased trauma knowledge and resiliency strategies National Child Traumatic Stress Products will be implemented including "Think Trauma," "Road to Recovery" and "Resource Parent Curriculum". During YEAR I approximately 264 children will be served followed by at least 100 each of the following five years. CROP, to sustain a resilient workforce, will provide ongoing secondary traumatic stress processing and strategies through the utilization of the NCTSN Resilience Alliance Curriculum. Evaluation will focus on the effectiveness of the model through quantitative analysis of CROP goals of prevention, reduction, length of stay, recidivism, and improvement in well-being for children at risk of entering, or currently in, congregate care.
