Eckerd Connects’ community-based services are outcome-driven programs serving children and families involved in child welfare, juvenile justice or both.
These programs enable vulnerable children, from newborns to 23 years of age, to remain safely in their homes and receive services in their own communities while still addressing complex emotional and behavioral needs. These cost effective services divert vulnerable youth from detention and residential programs and also support their successful return from residential placement to their families and communities.
