Camden County Family Support Organization

We can link you with educational and supportive opportunities that will be helpful in dealing with your child. We provide for our families several different support groups to assist in the challenges of raising a child with emotional, behavioral or mental health challenges. Camden County Family Support Organization is an organization designed, built, and run by family members of emotionally and/or behaviorally challenged children. CCFSO was established to provide support, education, and advocacy for families with emotionally and/or behaviorally challenged children in Camden County. CCFSO works in conjunction with the Camden County Partnership for Children to carry out the philosophies and objectives of the Children's System of Care. We provide intensive Face-to-Face support to families and caregivers at the place and time that is most convenient for them. We also provide support online and by phone, in case a face-to-face visit is not convenient for the family. We attend Child-Family Team meetings, Individual Education Plan meetings and other pertinent meetings regarding the family and the child. We also assist families in critical situations, such as entering a hospital or detention facility. We will facilitate Family-Run support Groups throughout Camden County. We provide education to our families and communities. We educate families on an individual basis as needed. For example, a family may request information on a certain medication or type of treatment. We will coordinate lectures given by our staff to other professionals for our families. In addition, we provide education forums for the community. We address the needs of our families and the children. ​ We provide advocacy in many forums. On an individual basis, we advocate for families as a whole within the various systems which include Juvenile Justice, DCP&P, Mental Health, Education, and Medicaid. We also advocate at the State and Federal levels. We attend pertinent meetings and hearings. We ensure that the "Family Voice" is heard at all levels.
