About Communities Connected for Kids

Communities Connected for Kids provides oversight and coordination of the child-welfare system in Indian River, Martin, Okeechobee and St. Lucie counties. At any given time, there are about 1,300 abused, abandoned or neglected children in our care. We are responsible for the safety and well-being of each one of them. We meet this responsibility through a mix of direct and contracted services. If you think about it in terms of building a house, we are the general contractor of the child-welfare system. The system is the house, we are the contractor, and our network of service providers are the subcontractors we pull together to make the house strong and ready to live in.

Who We Serve

Communities Connected for Kids offers a full range of care for children, adolescents, young adults and family members in Okeechobee and the Treasure Coast. We offer our services through a wide variety of approaches including in-home parenting and prevention services, family preservation, case management, residential programs and extended foster care services for teenagers and young adults.

In the tradition of true partnership, Communities Connected for Kids works closely with several agencies that are funded through Medicaid, substance abuse/mental health or private funds to offer a continuum of treatment services otherwise unfunded by Community Based Care dollars. These partnerships help families strengthen their capacity to care for their children or help children heal from trauma they've experienced.

Mission

Our mission is to enhance the safety, permanency and well-being of all children in Okeechobee and the Treasure Coast through a community network of family support services.

Values

Communities Connected for Kids values are:

We are accountable to the children and families we serve and to the communities in which we live. We ensure services provided are:

  • Individualized, based on the strengths and needs of the families we serve
  • Respectful and culturally sensitive
  • Effective and accountable
  • Evidence based and data driven
  • Permanency focused
  • Ensure financial and human resources are managed and maximized

Our Vision

We envision a community without abuse, neglect and abandonment so all children grow to their full potential.
