Establishing Washtenaw County Family Treatment Court

The County of Washtenaw will establish a Family Treatment Court (FTC) founded on the FTC’s Best Practice Standards, establish a multidisciplinary operations team, provide evidence-based treatment and services to participants, establish youth and family partnership events and alumni groups, and practice continuous programmatic improvement throughout the project. The project's expected outcomes are the development of a multidisciplinary operations team, the provision of evidence-based services, improved treatment and permanency outcomes among participating families, and the engagement of youth and families in program activities and operations.
