Voluntary Case Management

Although this program is a newly added service in 2022, Voluntary Case Management has been in existance in Hawaii for many years, and had been a program of Family Programs Hawaii in the past. We are excited to offer these services again to our community to strengthen families, keeping them together and out of the foster care system.

One of our case managers shared a story about a referral that Family Programs Hawaii worked through the VCM Program. The client was referred to the program due to reports of domestic violence. The VCM Program supported the client through their current situation through case management services, resources, emotional support, and connected them with partner agencies that work specifically with victims of domestic violence. As a result, the client made the decision to separate from their partner and was able to emancipate themselves from their current situation. They are now working toward supporting themselves and their family and raising their children in a safe and healthy environment. This is just one of the success stories that come out of the VCM Program here in our organization. Our goal is to ensure that every family can remain a family under the best possible circumstances.
