Capes

CAPES provides comprehensive, innovative, compassionate and coordinated mental health, physical and educational care recommendations to parents of children and adolescents who present with significant problems in two or more areas relating to their development. The inspiration for CAPES was the need for coordinated analysis and care for children an... d adolescents with complex educational, physical and mental health needs. CAPES has been operational since February of 2009. We have diligently monitored and documented changes in the participants in our care program. Our team thoroughly and consistently examined each step of the process and made adjustments to ensure our procedure was exemplary. Standardized data, including Child Behavior Checklist, Teacher Report Forms and Youth Self-Report Forms, has been completed at intake and again at a six month interval by participating families. These standardized forms allow for the documentation of change resulting from the participation in the CAPES Program. See the Publications section. CAPES is committed to treating all patients and their families with dignity, respect and compassion regardless of their personal or economic circumstances. CAPES does not refuse treatment to any child or adolescent based on his/her caregiver's ability to pay. Providing charity care at a level that is both meaningful and sustainable is a fundamental goal of CAPES. This policy is designed to balance fiscal stewardship with the long-term charitable mission of CAPES.Read More
