Systems of Care Institute

The Systems of Care Institute Promotes Sustainable Systems

The Systems of Care Institute develops extensive statewide and local workforce development programs designed to promote sustainable systems changes across child welfare, mental health, education, juvenile justice and other related systems.

Our Mission

The System of Care Institute is committed to improving the lives of adults, youth and families by supporting the growth and transformation of systems and communities that serve them. We collaborate with communities to assess needs, build upon current strengths, and develop work plans for consultation, training, and staff development. Our approach to policy, practice, and technical assistance is guided and informed by the adults, youth, and families served, is culturally and linguistically responsive, and is maintained at the community level by sustainable structures, processes, and relationships.
