Child and Family Resource Unit Overview 

Unit Services

Children's Community Options Program (CCOP)

The Children's Community Options Program (CCOP) provides individual services to families with children who are diagnosed with severe disabilities. The Program recognizes that meeting the needs of children who have severe disabilities may place hardships on a family's emotional, physical, and financial resources. An assessment and functional screen is completed by a social worker from the Children and Family Resource Unit to determine eligibility.

Please call (920) 459-0368 or Email Us to request an application, and include your name, phone number, and address in your email message.

Birth to 3

Children do different things at different ages. Some babies sit without support at six months old, while others need help until they are nine months old. Some toddlers start talking when they are a year old. Others might take longer to say their first words. If you are worried about the way your baby or toddler is developing, don't wait! The years from birth to age three are so important. Please call (920) 459-0368 to arrange an appointment for a developmental screening for your child.

Children's Long-Term Support Waiver (CLTS)

Wisconsin has approved CLTS Waivers for children with developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, severe emotional disturbances, and kids with autism spectrum disorders. The purpose of the Waivers is to help families support their children with severe disabilities within their own home/community. The CLTS Waivers are funded through Medicaid and local tax dollars and may pay for approved services in the community. An assessment and functional screen is completed by a social worker from the Children and Family Resource Unit to determine eligibility. To apply for the CLTS Waiver please call (920) 459-0368 or Email Us to request an application.
