Outcomes and accomplishments of the circles of care planning efforts.

This paper presents outcomes and accomplishments of the first round of participating individuals, communities, and grantees of the Circles of Care program (CoC). While accomplishing all CoC program goals, the initiative supported grantees in developing individual service delivery system models and positioned each grantee advantageously for securing funds for future implementation. The process and products as described can now assist others in improving their own systems of care for Indian children, adolescents, and their families.
