The Emergency Shelter program provides immediate placement for a child
who is initially entering the custody of the Department of Children’s
Services (DCS), or a child who has emergency disputes in a placement and
needs short term care. This service does not usually exceed thirty
(30) days in duration. Emergency Shelter programs work to stabilize a
child before they are moved to a permanent placement. A child in
this placement attends the on-site school.
