The Kansas Institute for Positive, Healthy, & Inclusive Communities (KIPHIC)
Website: Unknown
Description: KIPHIC, focuses on improving systems and supports for individuals and families through trauma-informed care, positive behavior support, and person-centered planning. Our work includes:
Parent Peer Support: Through our DCF-funded Kansas Parent Support Network (KPSN), we provide parent-peer mentoring to caregivers navigating child welfare and behavioral health systems. This is especially helpful when families need emotional support, advocacy, or help understanding service eligibility.
ASD-Specific Support: We also partner with the Kansas Family Support Center, which allows us to support families of youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), particularly around school-based accommodations, community engagement, and navigating wraparound supports.
School-Based Capacity Building: While we do not provide direct clinical services, we partner with school teams to implement PBIS, trauma-informed care, and individualized behavior planning support for students with intensive needs.
Systems Navigation: We assist families in accessing services by working with CDDOs, CMHCs, MCOs, and waiver programs, especially when care coordination or crisis planning is needed.
