Table of Contents

The Ocean County CIACC serves as a mechanism to...

• Advise the County Mental Health Board and the NJ Department of Children and Families in planning for mental and behavioral ​health services for children
  

• Provide the County with a multidisciplinary forum to review and discuss the system of services for children with special social, ​emotional, and behavioral challenges

• Identify and address barriers to effective service delivery

• Seek solutions for the County and make appropriate recommendations on programs and policies that impact children and families

...through a partnership of parents, consumers, government, community-based organizations and service providers.

The ultimate goal of the CIACC's activities is to oversee mental and behavioral health services available to children and families to ​ensure that the appropriate and least restrictive level of care is obtained and that a comprehensive system of needed services within ​the County is maintained.

This preserves the integrity of treatment and saves public funds through diverting unnecessary out-of-home placements.
