This program supports the following Board of Supervisors' community outcomes: "Children Ready For and
Succeeding in School";""Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing"; and "Communities that are Safe and Provide
a High Quality of Life for Children and Families". Expected outcomes include all goals identified by Children's
Statewide System of Care guidelines including an increase in family satisfaction - as measured by the Parent
Satisfaction Survey, decreased use of acute care system; and placement at discharge to a lower level of care.

for Children and Families for the period from July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2008, which included a six-month
automatic extension through December 31, 2008, for the provision of day treatment services for SED children.
