• CRCG-CPC Members are also able to provide access to a variety of local programs, services, supports and evaluations.

Anyone who is concerned about a child or youth with complex needs. Involved agencies, schools, and therapeutic providers routinely refer children and youth to the CRCG-CPC meeting. Families are also able to contact us directly to discuss available community services and supports including a CRCG-CPC meeting if eligible.

CRCG-CPC serves children and youth by helping identify services and supports available in our community. When a family has already accessed eligible services and involved agencies have exhausted their internal resources and despite this the child continues to have unmet or escalation of needs, then a CRCG-CPC meeting for the youth or family can be discussed.

CRCG-CPC membership is comprised of committed community representatives who bring their expertise and resources to create a continuum of care for children, youth, and families of Travis County.

CRCG-CPC currently has approximately 20 partner agencies that actively participate in the meetings.
