Adjudicated youth appropriate for treatment foster care have serious emotional or behavioral disorders. The level of supervisory treatment and family intervention needs of these adjudicated youth is comparable to those served in residential treatment facilities. Treatment foster care consists of:
(1) A treatment foster care agency/foster care treatment program with staff who give support to the treatment foster parent and the adjudicated youth/family; and
(2) Treatment foster parents who implement treatment strategies identified in the treatment plan in addition to carrying out their regular foster care responsibilities.
