Spotlight on CRCGs
In this section, the State CRCG Office acknowledges
efforts and successes of different CRCGs. CRCGs can
share success stories for coming newsletters by
emailing CRCG@hhsc.state.tx.us.
Youth Involvement is a Winner
The Harris County CRCG involves older youth in their
own staffing meetings. This allows youth to express
their needs and participate in resource planning. The
CRCG coordinator reports this method has had a
positive impact on their CRCG and the individuals and
families they serve.
Thinking Outside the Box to Link Services
Community Partners for Children (CPC), the Travis
County CRCG, was able to be creative and flexible
with their residency criteria to meet a person's
needs. A youth at risk of homelessness in another
state had an opportunity to be placed with a relative
in Austin. The youth was being discharged from a
long-term, out-of-state residential treatment center
and was not able to return to their adoptive home
that was also out-of-state. CPC quickly began
coordinating by phone, email, and fax with the
adoptive parent and treatment center. A little more
than a week after first learning of the situation, CPC
completed a session with the relative to establish
eligibility for all recommended services and supports
allowing for the youth to be discharged fromtreatment to the care of their relative in Austin.
We would love to hear from
you! If you have thoughts,
concerns, comments, ideas or
anything else that you'd like to
share, please contact the State
CRCG Office.
