Family Engagment In Wayne County
(A note of appreciation from a caseworker) Hi Renee, I know that FGDM conferences measure successes in lots of different ways, but I want to share that the Smith/Johnson conference was what I would call the perfect one.

As a result of the FGDM Conference, mom’s daily functioning and optimism has blossomed. Sandra told Jane Jones that she is thankful for family group because it showed her that her family is behind her and supportive. Until...

Sean helped him look at his life more objectively and articulate his goals for his future. With continuous help (and a few early morning reminders!), Peter’s school attendance improved from 40% to...
York County Client Prevails Against Great Odds!
Sammy was a “high interest” case when referred. He had been adjudicated at the age of fifteen for a severe offense committed at age 13 (subsequent to an altercation and attack by a sibling’s friend). At the time of referral, Sammy was in a locked State Institution. During weekly visits at his placement, JusticeWorks’ Family Resource Specialist Sean Lazarus developed a good relationship with the young man. Sammy’s family had largely abandoned him and had limited contact with him. Sean became his main support and contact to the greater community. During his placement stay, Sammy...
