The Salem County Children’s Inter-Agency Coordinating Council (CIACC)
The Salem County Children’s Inter-Agency Coordinating Council (CIACC) as the county communication channel for advising the Department of Children and Families (DCF) on the development and maintenance of a responsive, accessible, and integrated system of care for children, youth, and young adults with emotional, mental, and behavioral challenges, intellectual and developmental disabilities, and substance use service needs.
The CIACC’s efforts include collaboration with children, youth and their families, along with schools, agencies, providers, and community representatives that work with Salem County children and youth. Through enhanced coordination of system partners, the CIACC also identifies services and resource gaps and priorities for resource development.
The Salem County CIACC and its subcommittees meet regularly throughout the year. Our meetings are open to the public. If you are a youth or family member with lived experience utilizing the Children’s System of Care, consider becoming involved in CIACC. We need, encourage, and welcome any feedback or input from you to help achieve our mission and goals.
