Provide Psychotherapeutic Services
The Institute for Children and Families' primary activity is
the provision of psychotherapeutic services to children,
adolescents and adults whose lives have been impacted by
early trauma and its related effects on attachment.
Psychotherapeutic services comprise a range of related
activities including psychotherapy (for individuals,
families and groups), assessment and evaluation, and
developmental screening. Psychotherapeutic services are
currently provided in ICF's offices by a staff of four
affiliated therapists who work as independent contactors.
The Board of Directors selects all service providers after
reviewing their credentials, work history and suitability to
ICF's mission. Service providers are compensated at a rate
representing no more than reasonable compensation for
services performed, as determined by the Board of Directors.
The psychotherapeutic staff may eventually grow to include
several full-time employees. In all cases, individuals
providing psychotherapeutic services on behalf of ICF are
and will be appropriately trained and certified in their
respective areas of specialization.
Provision of psychotherapeutic services furthers ICF's
charitable purposes by improving the health and welfare of
individuals, families and communities. This activity began
upon the formation of ICF and will continue indefinitely.
Provision of psychotherapeutic services will comprise
approximately 60% of the ICF activities.
