Our comprehensive programs
At F.O.C.U.S. WV we believe in providing genuine therapeutic partnership to families in need. Discover our evidence-based programs designed to keep families together and accelerate safe reunification.
Our family preservation and reunification program
West Virginia’s child welfare system faces immense strain from economic disinvestment, the opioid epidemic, and resource limitations. F.O.C.U.S. offers innovative, integrated programs to address this crisis with genuine therapeutic partnership.
Clinically enhanced family supervision
Our prevention-first offering: We provide specialized clinical intervention and reunification support for families in supervised visitation, helping bridge the gap between safety and progress.
Residential family care program
Our residential program provides comprehensive, attachment-focused support—integrating addiction recovery, trauma-informed family therapy, and intensive case management—to break the cycle of system involvement and foster lasting family reunification.
Meaningful contact and coaching
We provide real-time attachment coaching, skill-building, guided parent-child interaction, and individualized progress monitoring. This fulfills court-ordered visitation requirements with therapeutic meaning.
Why our programs make a difference
West Virginia has a foster care entry rate 2.5 times the national average and a leading opioid overdose mortality rate. Our programs offer a meaningful, therapeutic pathway to healing and reunification, addressing systemic issues rather than simply warehousing families in crisis.
Therapeutic partnership, not surveillance
Unlike traditional supervised visitation, our family care provides longer, more therapeutically meaningful contact. This allows families to engage in real-time attachment coaching and skill-building directly tied to case plan outcomes.
Integrated and evidence-based solutions
F.O.C.U.S. responds to West Virginia’s child welfare crisis with an integrated, evidence-based, two-component model. We are designed to keep families together whenever safe, and to accelerate safe reunification when separation has occurred, addressing the core issues of substance use disorders and trauma.
