TARGETED CASE MANAGEMENT supports children, families, and adults with a mental health diagnosis by connecting them to resources and providers within their home community. Our Targeted Case Managers complete person-centered functional assessments, make valuable referrals, monitor service provision, and coordinate overall mental health care. This “wrap-around” approach can complement existing counseling or therapy services provided by our staff, or be offered as a stand-alone service.

Though the needs of each student varies, on average a student may benefit from services from anywhere between 3 months to 2 years.
Depending on the need, average sessions may last anywhere between 30-90 minutes.
The SFMH program utilizes a variety of tools to assess each student’s progress. The SFMH provider regularly consults with a team of mental health practitioners and professionals to discuss each case. Additionally, every 6 months, the counselor and family meet with a qualified mental health professional to review the outlined goals and determine the progress made. The SFMH counselor also administers two methods of evaluation in 6 month increments (the CASII and CBCL) as requested by the Department of Human Services (State of MN).
YES! These services are confidential. However, with written parent permission, progress and goals may be shared with the school or other associated community programs.
