Targeted Case Management (TCM) at MCH

Targeted Case Management (TCM) at Maine Children’s Home (MCH) is a supportive service that helps youth and their families who are dealing with behavioral health issues, intellectual disabilities, or significant medical conditions. Through this service, a Case Manager works closely with families to assess their unique strengths and needs. They help create a personalized care plan and guide families in accessing valuable resources and treatment options. Additionally, the Case Manager tracks progress and provides follow-up to ensure that the services are effectively addressing the child or teen’s needs.

A Targeted Case Manager can help with:

  • Assessing the strengths and needs of the child and family regarding medical, educational, social, or other services
  • Helping to develop a plan to meet those identified needs
  • Providing education to families and children about available services and systems
  • Finding a range of suitable and accessible resources
  • Identifying treatment options and provide referrals to relevant services
  • Coordinating and oversee the delivery of services
  • Scheduling appointments
  • Supporting family members with organizational tasks, such as managing paperwork and attending meetings (including Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings) to advocate for the child's needs
