FOR CHILDREN

CASE MANAGEMENT

Sojourner Family Peace Center’s Community Resource Advocates provide specialized case management and legal assistance services to protective parents whose children have been victims of physical and/or sexual abuse. The goal of this program is to protect children from further maltreatment and to advocate within the systems working with children affected by violence.

Services include:

• Meeting with clients to conduct an abuse assessment
• Assisting parents in filing restraining orders
• Coordinating legal services with our partner agency Legal Action of Wisconsin, Inc.
• Working with police and child welfare personnel
• Accompanying clients to court hearings
• Creating a comprehensive plan to address the economic, housing, transportation and other daily living needs that must be met to keep the child safe.

Each year we serve over 1,200 parents and children through this program.
