About Home Study and Post Release Services
KyUMH works in collaboration with the Office of RefugeeResettlement (ORR) to supportchildren who are placed with caregivers across the state of Kentucky and potentially contiguousstates. The goals of the Home-Study Post Release Services Program (HS/PRS) are to:
  • Assess the safety and suitability of a sponsor before an unaccompanied child is released into a sponsor’s care (Home Study).
  • Provide case management support to ensure the continued safety and stability of children in sponsor’s homes and linking children to resources in the community (Post Release Services).
The PRS Intensive Case Manager (ICM) provides intensive case management services for families needing additional support. Their primary focus is stabilizing the family unit through tailored interventions and connecting the released child and sponsor family to community-based services for long-term care. PRS ICMs deliver Level 3 Post Release Services and may also provide Level 2 and Level 1 services.
