Working together in partnership with children and families to enhance independence, safety, and health, at home, in school, out of trouble and in the community.

Key Elements

  • Preventative Services - The prevention component is made up of existing community resources that are working with children and families:
        Atascadero Youth Task Force (466-5465)
        City Community Service Department (Community Services) 

        Y.M.C.A. 5901 East Mall (
        School PTAs
    This connection between service providers and community prevention programs will increase the families ability to link with vital community resources.
  • Community Based Services - There are currently community based teams located in Paso Robles and Atascadero providing services. The community based team works closely with the family, schools and other community resource partners to provide early intervention services. The Atascadero team operates out of the Atascadero Family Resource Center and has family advocates working at Creston, Santa Margarita, San Benito, Santa Rosa and the Atascadero Junior High School. The team develops with the family based on the families strengths and concerns a plan of action to mitigate the circumstances standing the in the way of the family's or child's success.
  • Intensive Services - The intensive team is based at the Chestnut Street Family Resource Center in Paso Robles and services the entire North County. Parents are again included as partners. Most services at the intensive level are provided in-home. This level of service is designed for families whose children are at risk for our of home placement.

All of the teams work closely with the families to provide them with the tools they need to be happy and successful.
