Carroll County Family and Children First Council

Family and Children First Councils are established in Ohio Revised Code 121.37. Carroll County Family and Children First Council (FCFC) is dedicated to coordinating systems and services among a collaboration of government family and child serving systems, along with private agencies and parents, and seeks new and inventive services for their children. FCFC prioritizes services, fills gaps where possible, and seeks new and inventive services to achieve better results for families and children.

FCFC deals with difficult cases working in a coordinated, collaborative, cross-system approach. The individual family service coordination process is family focused and strengths based. The process attempts to effectively address their needs through a process that creates a unique intervention/treatment environment that eliminates duplication and provides both traditional services and builds natural supports.
