FFCR HARNESSES THE POWER OF ITS EXTENSIVE VOLUNTEER AND PARTNER NETWORK ON BEHALF OF CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IMPACTED BY MIAMI'S FOSTER CARE SYSTEM AND THOSE AT RISK OF ENTERING OR RE-ENTERING THE SYSTEM. FFCR'S INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS AND PROFESSIONAL TEAM OF SUBJECT-MATTER EXPERTS DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT CHILD-CENTERED, INDIVIDUALIZED STRATEGIES THAT ALLOW YOUTH TO HEAL FROM TRAUMA AND GROW UP WITH THE LOVE AND SUPPORT OF STABLE ADULTS AND NURTURING FAMILIES.FFCR'S CITIZEN REVIEW PANEL (CRP) PROGRAM ENGAGES, TRAINS AND SUPPORTS VOLUNTEERS WHO CONDUCT REVIEW HEARINGS FOR "CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O" ABUSED OR NEGLECTED CHILDREN IN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY'S FOSTER CARE SYSTEM. WITH GUIDANCE AND SUPERVISION BY FFCR'S STAFF, CRP VOLUNTEERS INTERVIEW THE YOUTH, HIS/HER CASE MANAGER, AND CAREGIVERS; AND SCOUR MEDICAL REPORTS, EDUCATIONAL RECORDS AND THERAPY RECORDS TO IDENTIFY CRITICAL GAPS IN THE CHILD'S CARE. EACH FFCR REVIEW HEARING CULMINATES IN AN INDIVIDUALLY-TAILORED SET OF RECOMMENDATIONS TO ADDRESS EACH CHILD'S UNMET NEEDS TO ENSURE A SAFE, TIMELY AND PERMANENT EXIT FROM THE SYSTEM. ONCE APPROVED BY THE DEPENDENCY COURT JUDGE, THESE RECOMMENDATIONS BECOME BINDING AND ENFORCEABLE COURT ORDERS. FFCR STAFF ENGAGE IN POST-REVIEW ADVOCACY EFFORTS TO ENSURE THAT ALL TIME-SENSITIVE SAFETY AND WELL-BEING NEEDS ARE PROPERLY ADDRESSED.FFCR'S PERMANENCY ROUNDTABLE (PRT) PROGRAM CURATES AND CONVENES AN INDIVIDUALIZED MULTI-DISCIPLINARY TEAM FOR EACH CHILD SERVED AND FACILITATES AN INITIAL PRT SESSION TO DEVELOP A CUSTOMIZED AND STRATEGIC PERMANENCY ACTION PLAN. EVERY PRT TEAM RECONVENES FOR SUBSEQUENT ROUNDTABLE SESSIONS EVERY 30-45 DAYS TO REVIEW PROGRESS TOWARDS THE CHILD'S PERMANENCY GOAL, TO MODIFY THE PLAN AS NEEDED AND TO TACKLE CHALLENGES AND BREAK THROUGH BARRIERS. FFCR'S PROGRAM STAFF COORDINATE THESE FOLLOW-UP ROUNDTABLES UNTIL THE CHILD REACHES PERMANENCY. BETWEEN SESSIONS, FFCR TACKLES TIME-CONSUMING TASKS, INCLUDING FAMILY FINDING, AND EXPLORES WAYS TO SAFELY RE-CONNECT CHILDREN WITH FAMILY. STAFF MINE COURT FILES FOR CRUCIAL INFORMATION AND WORK TO MATCH CHILDREN WITH PROSPECTIVE FAMILIES. THEY ALSO ENGAGE AND SUPPORT PROSPECTIVE ADOPTIVE FAMILIES BY HELPING TO REMOVE BARRIERS TO ADOPTION AND PROVIDE SUPPORT TO YOUTH WHO HAVE QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS ABOUT THE ADOPTION PROCESS. FFCR'S CONNECT 2 COMMUNITY (C2C) INITIATIVE ENRICHES THE LIVES OF CHILDREN WHO ARE SERVED BY FFCR BY CONNECTING THEM TO NEW EXPERIENCES THAT ARE INDIVIDUALLY TAILORED TO MEET EACH CHILD'S UNIQUE NEEDS, INTERESTS AND/OR GOALS. PROGRAM STAFF LEVERAGE FFCR'S EXTENSIVE NETWORK OF COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, CORPORATIONS AND VOLUNTEERS TO CREATE A VARIETY OF "COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS," SUCH AS ENGAGING IN ATHLETIC ACTIVITIES, EQUINE THERAPY, RESUME WORKSHOPS AND COLLEGE ESSAY GUIDANCE. FOR CHILDREN WAITING TO BE ADOPTED, CONNECTIONS TO COMMUNITY-BASED ACTIVITIES AND RESOURCES CAN ALSO HELP PROMOTE PERMANENCY BY ENHANCING THE CHILD'S SELF-ESTEEM AND SENSE OF SELF-WORTH. TO ENSURE LONG-TERM STABILITY AND PREVENT RE-ENTRY INTO FOSTER CARE FOR CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN ADOPTED, REUNIFIED, PLACED UNDER PERMANENT GUARDIANSHIP OR AGED OUT OF FOSTER CARE, FFCR'S C2C INITIATIVE EXTENDS TO CHILDREN, YOUNG ADULTS AND THEIR CAREGIVERS WHO NO LONGER HAVE AN OPEN FOSTER CARE (DEPENDENCY) CASE. FOR THESE CHILDREN, FFCR TEAM MEMBERS REACH OUT EVERY 60 DAYS OR MORE TO PROVIDE PRACTICAL GUIDANCE, ONGOING EMOTIONAL SUPPORT AND LINKAGES TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES. 1757121 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 0 1 24 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 16 16 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 FL X X TWILA GONZALES 3056792742 155 NW THIRD STREET SUITE 4338 MIAMI FL 33128 MICHELLE WEBER PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 AARON GORDON VICE PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 CHRISTOPHER HUTCHINS CPA TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 RUTH BEHLMAN SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 CANDICE MAZE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 127500 0 0 IRIS ACOSTA-ZOBEL MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 LOURDES AVINO ESQ MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 JULIE BRUNO MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 SANDRA DAN MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ARTURO FERNANDEZ MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARTHA GARCIA MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 JENNIFER GROSS MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 LATASHA HINES ESQ MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DARA JEFFRIES MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DONALD MCCORKELL JR MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 RUTH RAMIREZ MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ALEXANDER RATTNER ESQ MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 127500 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 6351 342241 658032 854360 1860984 14 14 75329 342241 75329 0 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 624100 3001 3001 3001 1863999 3001 0 14 127500 118540 5000 3960 1277789 1221102 33104 23583 157654 152900 3112 1642 111404 105913 3380 2111 19018 15769 3249 24000 24000 79944 37241 5391 37312 12792 2193 5040 5559 11298 7521 2962 815 39833 36594 2988 251 7136 5068 2068 5134 2403 2731 6657 5990 667 25134 23363 1771 TELEPHONE 16805 15720 1085 LICENSES, DUES AND OTHE 7045 1061 5984 VOLUNTEER EXPENSES 5743 5743 1934886 1757121 102532 75233 128692 189123 265331 100345 84485 71833 3334 28421 30826 126524 112531 19750 13993 526679 409454 51948 55631 82624 33128 134572 88759 X 392107 320695 392107 320695 526679 409454 -70887 -525 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 1317216 1395820 1702147 1789370 1748011 7952564 1317216 1395820 1702147 1789370 1748011 7952564 7952564 1366 241 58 46 14 1725 212436 250435 258900 407698 417570 1547039 9501328 0.83700 0.84330 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 24000 0 0 24000 0 PART II-B, LINE 1: FOSTER CARE REVIEW, INC.
