Aftercare
At KVC, we are faithfully committed to providing you and your loved ones with lasting, positive outcomes. As a part of our successful care program, we offer aftercare treatment for one year following reintegration, permanent custodianship or finalization of adoption. Our multifaceted aftercare planning occurs when reintegration is imminent, and KVC assigns an intensive in-home therapist to assist with the case.
The therapist works to keep the children safe and stable in their homes by providing intensive in-home services. They also connect families with a multitude of community services including medical or behavioral health services, education or legal assistance.
At KVC, 92 percent of children who enter foster care and return home or find a forever family will remain there. The national average is 67 percent. We attribute this achievement to our excellent case management system and extensive parent training.
