DCBHS is committed to providing these services based on the needs of the child and family in a family driven, community-based environment. New Jersey parents can contact the DCBHS System of Care if their children are experiencing emotional or behavioral challenges. The parent/guardian must make the call to ask for assistance. Helping professionals may assist the parent/guardian in making the call. Teachers, Social Workers, Clinicians, Medical Personnel, Pastors, and others involved with the child or family can suggest that the parent contact DCBHS. If the parent/guardian agrees with the suggestion, the parent/guardian can make the call. If the parent/guardian wants assistance with this process, the professional/supportive person can call with the parent. The helping person can also assist the parent/guardian through a conference call. The parent/guardian must be willing to speak to the Care Coordinator and agree to the DCBHS assessment process. The Family Support Organization of Monmouth County (Family Based Services Association of NJ) can help a parent/guardian refer their child to DCBHS. They are located at: 279 Broadway
