Community Commitment

Since its inception in 1985, Home Remedies has pioneered the development, implementation, and dissemination of home-based, family-centered services in North Carolina. The program currently offers an array of in-home services aimed at strengthening and maintaining families.

  • Home Remedies provides Intensive Family Preservation Services (IFPS) in twelve North Carolina counties. IFPS offers four-to-six weeks of intensive counseling and support in the homes of families with children at imminent risk of being placed in foster care or in juvenile or psychiatric institutions.
  • Within the same twelve North Carolina counties, Home Remedies administers Time Limited Reunification Services This program provides up to six months of services with the goal of reuniting families with children placed in foster care through the Department of Social Services.
  • The most recent addition to Home Remedies is a Community Commitment Program through the Department of Juvenile Justice.  This program provides family preservation/reunification services to youths and their families in three North Carolina counties to reunite youths involved with, entering/exiting Youth Developmental Centers.
