Intensive In-Home

Intensive In-Home Services for Children/Adolescents under age 21 are intensive, time limited

interventions provided typically but not solely in the residence of a child who is at

risk of being moved into an out-of-home placement or who is being transitioned to home

from out-of-home placement due to documented clinical needs of the child. These services

provide crisis treatment; individual and family counseling; and communication skills (e.g.

counseling to assist the child and his parents to understand and practice appropriate

problem-solving, anger management, and interpersonal interaction, etc.); case management

activities and coordination with other required services; and 24-hour emergency response.

Home is defined as the family residence and includes a child living with natural parents,

relatives, or a guardian, or the family residence of the child’s permanent or temporary

foster care or pre-adoption placement. Children receiving Treatment Foster Care Case

Management are not eligible for IIH services.
