Choose one door
The worksheet helps a parent or helper pick one support call instead of trying to solve every issue at once.
PRINTABLE FAMILY TOOL
Family Support Finder Worksheet
A practical worksheet for choosing one or two support doors under stress: safety, basic needs, counseling/family support, school/provider help, transportation, insurance, sliding-scale questions, and follow-up logs.
Support before conflict escalation
Use this when the next step is unclear.
Ask practical questions
Cost, insurance, transportation, waitlists, safety, accessibility, and follow-up questions are built in.
Court is not first
Official/legal doors remain available for safety, orders, forms, deadlines, and required process, but support and stability come first when safe.
Private-use boundary: This worksheet is for the family’s own use. Do not send FOCaF child names, private allegations, medical records, sealed records, or confidential family materials.
What it includes
Service finder pages
Safety and crisis routing, who-to-call map, call-prep worksheet, questions before scheduling, and barrier map.
Follow-up tools
A simple follow-up log and one-week plan to keep support steps visible without turning private life into a public submission.
