The program follows the High Fidelity Wraparound (HFW) model---a collaborative, family-driven process that coordinates individualized care across multiple service systems. MYPAC provides clinical, care coordination, and case management services as an alternative to residential treatment, focusing on intensive community support to keep children safely at home. MYPAC teams are available 24/7 for crisis intervention and ongoing support, offering in-home individual and family therapy, as well as medication management. Rooted in the principles of "Family Voice, Family Choice," this program ensures that services are youth-guided and family-driven. The HFW approach emphasizes a strength-based philosophy, bringing together community resources and natural supports to foster long-term success and stability for youth and families. ** Essential Duties and Responsibilities:** The Pre-Service Coordinator: Markets for new referrals by conducting marketing presentations, calling previous referral sources, and identifying new referral targets in the community Maintains regular contact with known referral sources and provides appropriate customer service to all external and internal c stomers Communicates at least weekly with Regional Supervisor regarding active referral numbers, referral needs, red-flag referrals, progress/barriers, and census projections Processes forms, conducts assessments, and completes referral packets in a timely manner for submission to Placement Services Contacts current and previous service providers during the referral process to gain multiple perspectives and to discuss needs for ongoing services after enrollment in the program Collects all clinical information necessary for MYPAC admission, verifies Medicaid eligibility, and provides additional support with obtaining MYPAC Medicaid eligibility if inactive Provides crisis response and intervention to help families when emergency situations arise during eligibility determination Attends 3 weekly meetings (individual, team, and clinical consultation) for professional development and q
