<h3>Job Description</h3>
Job Description
This short-term, intensive intervention role focuses on expanding efforts to locate, notify, and engage safe, appropriate relatives and kin for youth entering foster care. Using the evidence-based 30 Days to Family® model and family search and engagement practices, the Specialist works to ensure timely compliance with the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008, Senate Bill 683, and other relevant Missouri statutes.
The Specialist immediately begins identifying and engaging non-offending parents and grandparents, followed by an extensive search to locate, contact, and explore up to 80 additional maternal and paternal relatives for potential placement and ongoing support. Because foster care placements can be fragile, the goal is to identify multiple relatives or kin who can provide placement options or be part of a robust support network. Every effort is made to keep siblings together, maintain the youth’s school of origin, and preserve meaningful relationships with friends and supportive adults.
Once a placement provider is identified—whether prior to the Protective Custody Hearing or later—the Specialist offers targeted support to promote placement stability. This includes assessing youth and family needs, identifying family and community resources, removing barriers to relative placement, and developing a comprehensive plan that outlines formal and informal supports available to the family.
