[QUOTE="Andy, post: 339873, member: 5096"] Top priority is to get that kid to his appointments! Is the mom or child on financial state assistance? If so, have the mom call her FINANCIAL WORKER (it is NOT the same as a social worker). This person would understand the programs available through the state/county assistance. Have the mom ask this person if her child qualifies for a transportation program. I find that the county social workers in our state do not communicate with the financial workers. When they are referring a client to services, it would only make sense and help everyone along the line if they would actually call the financial worker and say, "So and so is going into treatment, how is this going to effect the eligibility of assistance? When is the review due to stay on the assistance? Here is the address to send the review papers to (we deal with adults who do not always receive their mail from home), ect. ect. ect. Is there a transportation program the client can tap into while in treatment to get to doctor appts." If she does not know who her financial worker is, call the county office and ask for the Financial Worker department. I do know that our state has transportation assistance, however, I have very seldom seen anyone on it and do not know how it works. [/QUOTE]
