Choices CCS

Choices Coordinated Care Solutions is a national non-profit organization dedicated to supporting youth, adults, and families facing significant behavioral and emotional challenges. Established in 1997, the organization focuses on providing community-based services that empower individuals and strengthen family units. Their primary mission is to ensure that youth and families receive the necessary support to maintain stability within their homes and communities, thereby reducing the need for more invasive institutional care such as inpatient facilities, foster care, residential treatment, or juvenile detention.

The organization operates with a philosophy that strong families are the key to supporting children with complex needs. To achieve this, Choices Coordinated Care Solutions employs evidence-informed methods, including the High Fidelity Wraparound process, which is a youth-guided and family-driven planning process. This approach involves building a customized plan of care that leverages the strengths of the youth and their family, while also coordinating services across multiple systems. They partner with a wide range of stakeholders, including schools, government agencies, health insurers, managed-care organizations, and other service providers, to create a comprehensive support network.

In addition to Wraparound services, Choices Coordinated Care Solutions offers mobile response and stabilization services, which provide immediate crisis intervention to individuals and families in distress. Their programs are designed to be flexible and responsive, meeting families where they are and addressing their unique needs. By fostering collaboration and focusing on sustainable outcomes, Choices Coordinated Care Solutions strives to enhance the well-being of the communities they serve and improve the long-term prospects of the youth and families under their care.
