Child and Family Program
About Us
The Child and Family Program (CFP) is composed of a small team of dedicated multidisciplinary providers who work together to meet the needs of diplomatic families in support of our overseas mission. CFP team members complete post specific educational and mental health clearance recommendations for those children with identified needs. In addition, CFP adjudicates the Special Needs Education Allowance (SNEA) for those children that meet eligibility criteria for educationally required services and supports.
