The Children’s Services Act (CSA) is a Virginia law created to develop and fund various services and support for eligible children and their families. Services are approved through a multi-disciplinary team process and monitored by the local CSA program. The goal is to provide appropriate services to a child while keeping them safely in their home and community. If a child needs an out-of-home placement, the intention is to return them to their home as quickly as possible.
Assistance through the CSA might be appropriate if your child needs mental health and/or behavioral supports, or other resources not funded through private insurance or Medicaid. CSA may also be able to provide parent support and education. The Family Assessment and Planning Team (FAPT) will provide individualized service recommendations based on your child and family’s needs and services available in the community. CSA provides an opportunity to interact with child-serving agencies in your community and can provide information about local community resources/services.
Giles County CPMT meets every third Tuesday of the month at 10:00am at the Giles County Administration Office located at 1 Taylor Ave, Suite 2 in Pearisburg.
