The goal of all programs offered by FPS - DC is to minimize reliance on out-of-home therapeutic placement by providing high quality services to families in their own home and community. Services are geared towards reducing the recurrence of escalating events within the home, and are time-limited and intensive. Our experience in other geographic areas has shown us that we can gain positive results with short-term interventions and effective follow-up. Behavioral health interventions include a wrap-around approach offered in the child's natural setting. This includes counseling, case management, and referral to community-based sources of support. Each intervention focuses on both the child and family. These services are available for children and families twenty-four hours a day seven days per week. Intensity of service levels may begin with up to 40 hours per week at the beginning of treatment and decrease over time as the family becomes more self-directive within a network of community-based support. It is the intent of FPS - DC to provide services that meet the needs of children within the Wards of the District of Columbia. Our plan is to work with a broad representation of different community agencies to create and provide programs that allow us to meet this goal. All care is designed to improve the abilities of clients and their families who may have a mental illness, emotional disturbance, or struggle with substance abuse. The services offered to meet their needs include natural setting assessment, mental health interventions, skills training, self and family management, and coordination/linkage with other covered services/supports. A to Z In-Home Tutoring provides effective, high-quality tutoring to students to improve their grades and their ability to learn. Many of our clients were born into poverty, and some were abused and neglected or abandoned. With the right inspiration and a little help on the academic front, these kids can quickly catch up in school, get ahead and develop the skills and self-esteem to be successful in life. Individualized programs are tailored to the unique needs of each child and services are offered in the client’s home, at their school or in the community. Upon completing the A to Z program, students typically acquire six new math skills and six new language arts skills. On average, student composite scores increase by 21% from pre-test scores to post-test scores. And parents love the A to Z program. In surveys of parents completed at the conclusion of every school year, A to Z receives very high marks year in and year out. Parents see improvements in areas such as: grades, behavior at school, attendance and self-esteem. Last year, A to Z’s parent satisfaction rate was 97%. A to Z In-Home Tutoring was founded in Nashville, TN and provides tutoring to children in 22 states and Washington, DC. A to Z’s corporate office is located in Brentwood, TN. LogistiCare has been managing non-emergency medical (NEMT) and other social service transportation programs for government agencies and managed care organization (MCOs) since 1989. LogistiCare currently is the nation’s largest and most experienced manager of Medicaid NEMT programs for state governments and MCOs, providing over 17 million NEMT trips annually in 36 states and the District of Columbia. LogsitiCare has also managed other types of human service transportation programs such as ADA paratransit, school transportation, commercial ambulance, and elderly dial-a-ride services. LogistiCare pioneered what is known as the “brokerage” model for delivering transportation services. Under the brokerage model, the funding entity outsources the management of their transportation benefit to a professional transportation management company, usually under a full-risk capitated financial arrangement. LogistiCare’s consistent record of cost saving and service quality has been instrumental in the increasing adoption of the NEMT broker model by state Medicaid agencies and MCOs throughout the country.
