What SOC looks like in action: Maggie and Bob, married with children Billy (14), Davey (12) and Taylor (5). Billy may have trauma, acting out in school, is now involved with DJJ, a year behind in school. DJJ ordered restitution and therapy. Davey is ADHD, tough to slow down, school suggesting home- bound instruction. Taylor is the lost child. Bob, sober but abusive, with an investigation of domestic violence and a current services case, under court order for anger management. Maggie sees a psychologist for crisis intervention; depressed but refuses to see psychiatrist. Overwhelmed and at wit’s end with Billy.
High Priority Populations Youth 0-21 with Severe Emotional Disturbances (SED) and those with early warning signs and symptoms of serious mental illness, including first episode psychosis, and their families.
