NCFAS-R (Reunification)
Family Assessment Scale for Reunification Training Package
NFPN, in cooperation with Dr. Ray Kirk from the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, has developed a training package for the North Carolina Family Assessment Scale for Reunification (NCFAS-R). The reliability and validity of this tool has been established through field-testing. In addition, 76% of the families were reunited at the test sites with only 6% of the children re-entering an out-of-home placement. These results meet the federal Child and Family Services Review standards. The Child Welfare League of America has granted Commendable Practice status for the use of the NCFAS-R with reunification cases.
