The family wellness program (fwp) is a short-term, supportive housing program for families referred by butler county children youth services (cys). Services provided to families by fwp vary based on a family's needs and abilities. Fwp provides temporary, safe and secure shelter for families experiencing housing adversities and are at risk of being separated. Those in the program are assigned a program coordinator that works with the family to identify goals and needs to achieve self-sufficiency. Services provided to families include case-management, child care, transportation, support coordination, housing education, budgeting and finances and life-skills coaching. The primary goal of fwp is autonomy and independence for parents and the family. Housing and services are provided on the service corporation's campus and serves butler county families.

Acute partial hospitalization - the acute partial hospitalization program is a short-term, intensive therapeutic day program designed to stabilize children experiencing significant psychiatric challenges with the goal of deterring inpatient hospitalization. It is appropriate for children ages 12 to 18 (up to 21 for children with special conditions; exceptions may be made for children ages 10 to 11) who do not require inpatient treatment, but are in need of more intensive treatment than outpatient services can provide. This short-term intensive level of care allows children to benefit from consistent, structured treatment while maintaining their education and usual living arrangements with their families.
