Family
Preservation Community Services (FPCS) of South Carolina
is committed to improving the lives of children and families
in our communities by working collaboratively with
state and community agencies. All programs offered by FPCS
are designed to maintain children at the lowest, least restrictive
yet most appropriate level of care. The emphasis is on home
and community-based care as an alternative to residential
placement and treatment of children.
Keeping in line with the company's mission to serve youth
and families in the community FPCS has developed a Therapeutic
Foster Care (TFC) program. TFC is an intensive treatment
program for emotionally disturbed children that incorporates
clinical treatment services provided within a supportive
foster home setting. The goal of TFC is to enable
a child to overcome emotional, behavioral or psychiatric
problems in a highly supportive, individualized, and flexible
foster home placement, thereby helping the child to move
on to a less intensive foster home placement or to return
to the natural home or family setting. Therapeutic
Foster Parents (TFPs) are recruited and trained in behavior
management and treatment interventions designed to meet
the individual needs of the child. The program adopts a
wraparound approach that includes the family in treatment
planning and seeks to include therapeutic support services
in the care of the child and family. These services
include: Behavior Intervention, Independent Living, Tutoring,
Transportation and Intensive Family Services.
FPCS is always seeking patient, loving and caring individuals
to become therapeutic foster parents.
