family preservation model

The family preservation model focuses on keeping families together by providing services that support and strengthen familial relationships, especially when they face challenges like financial hardship, mental health issues, or child welfare concerns. The goal is to address problems early, offering counseling, parenting support, and resources to prevent the need for child removal or placement outside the home. This approach recognizes that stable, nurturing families are key to children's well-being and works to resolve issues collaboratively, promoting family unity whenever safely possible.
