Kiddo came to us on 3/17 from residing with aunt who adopted her, and aunt is refusing to let her return. She has previously been in PRTF and has a felony assault charge that she was deemed incompetent for via a rule 20. Due to that most placement options have declined her. She has a CMH CM and the County team is exploring getting MNchoices expedited to look at waiver placement options.

These homes are often designed to offer a stable environment for youth who may face challenges or need assistance, such as those in the foster care system or with behavioral issues. The corporate aspect indicates that it is managed by a business or organization rather than a government agency or non-profit.
