Options is the Contracted System Administrator (CSA) designated

| Youth Case
Management (YCM): |
 When
children are deemed to need less strenuous care than that provided
by the CMO, Value Options refers them to Youth Case Management.
YCM has a leadership role in the coordination and integration
of services designed to optimize care for children and families.
Care Managers at YCM develop supportive relationship with the
children and families they serve. As with the CMO, care is based
upon the family's strengths, and all interventions are characterized
by dignity, respect, and self-determination.
YCM advocates for the needs and views of the child and their
family. The goal is to transition children out of the continuum
of care once the child and their families are confident that
they can access the services they need on their own. |
