Successes

Eckerd Community Alternatives measures success in many different ways.  It measures success by the inspirational stories of parents who made their homes safe again to be reunified with their children, of teens who – despite the odds –successfully transitioned to adulthood, and of families whose lives have been enriched through adoption, giving children in foster care the gift of a forever family.

Eckerd also measures success by managing a child welfare system of care that is quality-driven and outcome-oriented, and by being both transparent and accountable to its community stakeholders through weekly data calls.
