Services Affirming Family Empowerment:
Our goals are to focus on family strengths and to coordinate community resources to keep children: SAFE, HEALTHY, AT HOME, IN SCHOOL and OUT OF TROUBLE.
SAFE is a community based, school-linked, family-centered way of delivering and coordinating appropriate services to children and families in San Luis Obispo County. The SAFE services team includes the family and their natural supports in planning and implementing actions that build on family strengths and resources. Prevention and early intervention are always preferred. For those families with more immediate or severe problems, or families that need help with the coordination of services, the SAFE team links families to services and provides case management.
Another unique aspect of SAFE services is the employment of bilingual, bicultural Family Advocates to directly assist families by providing parenting education and support, translation services, connection with community resources, and case management.
