Consolidated Service Team Initiatives.

Wisconsin's Collaborative Systems of Care go by different names: Coordinated Services Teams (CST), Integrated Services Projects (ISP), and "Children Come First" (CCF). All are names of initiatives which use the wraparound process to respond to individuals and families with multiple and often serious needs in the least restrictive setting possible. This wraparound process is based on family and community values, is unconditional in its commitment to creatively address needs, and supports community-based options. Each child and family-centered team develops an individualized plan, incorporating the strengths of the child, family, and team members to work toward identified goals. Parents / care givers are equal partners and have ultimate ownership of their Plan of Care.

Annual reports 2000--2008.
