Was in SUD residential treatment, but they are declining to have him return, explaining that his needs are more mental health based than what their program can provide. He has a tentative acceptance at a residential program, just waiting for them to process more paperwork and identify a discharge date. Currently under temp custodianship with Ramsey County but Mom is involved ongoing.

Kiddo was brought into our ED on 1/9/25 by her County Case Manager. She was in residential treatment at Deveruex in FL for over a year, she then aggressed, and was charged with assault so was brought to a JDC for 21 days in FL. After that time was up, she was ordered back to MN and the County had no placement so she was brought to the ED. Ramsey County currently has custody. Their goal is a long term group home with 2:1 staffing, but are needing somewhere for pt to go in the interim. Our team tried to refer to Nexus YCT for placement assistance, but the County worker refused that service. She has been declined by Gerard and North Homes RTCs. She currently is eligible for waiver placements but a waiver worker won’t be assigned until placement is found, so the Child Family Svs worker is doing all referrals, for MH and waiver placements. County is currently refusing hotel crisis as an option.
