Integrative Family and Systems Treatment (IFAST)

I-FAST is a short-term intensive home and community-based therapy program for children, teens, and their families who are dealing with difficult behaviors related to:

• School failure or refusal
• Significant mental health concerns
• Court or CSB involvement
• Anger management
• Autism
• Emotional disturbance and mood instability
• Acting out and defiant behavior
• Family conflict

I-FAST works together with families to:

• Get power and respect back in the home
• Get problem behaviors under control
• Develop and use natural supports to solve the problem
• Reduce involvement with Children Services or juvenile court
• Improve school performance and reduce behaviors
• Provide advocacy for the child with courts, school, and CSB

I-FAST  is a Medicaid only program, therefore there is no cost to you, provided your child has active Medicaid.

**All referrals must come from a professional agency or Medical facility that your child is involved with.**
