Integrated Case Management
Integrated Case Management
The Case Management Team are Social Workers who work to provide youth-focused, coordinated and all-encompassing services to youth. Covenant House Vancouver takes a trauma-informed approach to caring for our young people. Trauma-informed care involves understanding, recognizing, and responding to the effects of all types of trauma. Trauma-informed care also emphasizes physical, psychological and emotional safety and helps youth rebuild a sense of control and empowerment.
Our Social Workers seek to focus and build upon the unique gifts and strengths that our young people possess.
Integrated Case Management may include:
- Assessments of over-all health (mental, physical and spiritual)
- Creation and implementation of weekly case plans
- Short- and long-term goal setting
- Referrals to and coordination of specialized services like psychiatrists and other medical professionals
Our process is based on the following principles:
- Youth-centered services
- Cultivating relationships of trust and mutual respect
- Realistic plans
- Youth participation and self-determination
- A holistic approach that addresses physical, mental, social, and spiritual health
- An ease of transition between programs along a continuum of care
- Advocacy
- Focusing on resilience
- Celebration of diversity
