Program: Multisystemic Therapy - Building Stronger Families (MST-BSF)

Agency: WELLMORE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH


Resource Number: 56244963
Description
MST-BSF is an intensive home-based treatment approach for families with children ages 6-17 involved with the CT Department of Children and Families protective services due to neglect and physical abuse concerns where there is also a concern about the impact of parental substance abuse on the family. A central part of the model is empirically supported treatment focused on monitoring and treating parental substance abuse. MST-BSF provides multiple sessions per week with the family, 24-hour crisis support, extensive safety planning and monitoring, and case management services. The MST-BSF team works collaboratively with DCF, the courts and other formal systems, building on the strengths of family members and increases the family’s connection to a variety of supports in the natural family environment. Referrals are accepted from the Waterbury DCF Area Office.
