o Refers to patterns of interacting that occur repeatedly in a family. These patterns of behavior become ingrained, dependent on each other.<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Balance
o Refers to the family patterns that family members have become used to. By finding a “balance,” families attempt to maintain their family system in a stable and predictable way, to keep things the same.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nFamily dynamics:
The patterns of relating, or interactions, between family members<\/p>\n\n\n\nFamily culture
Set of beliefs about how things should be in the family. It covers such things as who is the head of household, who does what work around the house, and gender roles<\/p>\n\n\n\nInterdependent family
seen as a collective or unified model<\/p>\n\n\n\nIndividualistic family
each person is seen as an individual, rather than a component of the group<\/p>\n\n\n\nMental Health
The state of emotional and psychological well-being<\/p>\n\n\n\nBehavioral Health
Focuses on the holistic view of human behavior and the well-being of the body<\/p>\n\n\n\nMental Illness
The medical condition that disrupts a person’s thinking, feeling, mood, ability to relate to others and daily functioning<\/p>\n\n\n\nAbandonment
A situation in which the parent(s) or legal custodian(s) of a child or, in the absence of a parent or legal custodian, the caregiver(s), while being able, makes no provision for the child’s support and has failed to establish or maintain a substantial and positive relationship with the child. “Establish or maintain a substantial and positive relationship” includes, but is not limited to, frequent and regular contact with the child through frequent and regular visitation or frequent and regular communication to or with the child, and through the exercise of parental rights and responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAbuse
An willful act or threatened act that results in an physical, mental or sexual abuse injury or harm that causes or is likely to cause a child’s physical, mental or emotional health to be significantly impaired.

When a child is deprived of or is allowed to be deprived of necessary food, clothing, shelter or medical treatment, or a child is permitted to live in a n environment when such deprivation or environment causes the child’s physical, mental or emotional health to be significantly impaired or to be in danger of being significantly impaired<\/p>\n\n\n\nFindings – Verified

Used when there is credible evidence which does not meet the standard of being a preponderance to support that the specific harm of threat of harm was the result of abuse, abandonment or neglect<\/p>\n\n\n\nFindings – No Indicator
Used when there is no credible evidence to support that the specific harm was the result of abuse, abandonment or neglect<\/p>\n\n\n\n4 Special Condition Cases<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The greater weight of the evidence, or more likely than not to have occurred<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat is the purpose of the FFA?
Did the reported incident happen to the child and is the child living in a state of danger that requires our intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat children\/cases will be transferred to case management?
