This is an intensive psychosocial intervention program for families in socially vulnerable situations to prevent and reduce mistreatment, neglect, and abuse of children and adolescents from 0 to 17 years of age.
It consists of a multidisciplinary team that offers brief and comprehensive services to families to identify quick solutions that prevent children from being referred to institutional foster homes and allow them to remain with their families.
This model promotes the use of resources available in the community, articulating formal and informal social support networks, but also has its own resources and authorization to make quick expenditures if necessary to address family problems.
