Community-Based Services

In partnership with the Children & Family Services, Lutheran Social Services of Indiana offers individualized services to families in crisis to promote their health and well-being. Among the services provided are parent training, role modeling, case management, and referrals to other resources. Additional services offered include both home-based and office-based counseling. LSSI incorporates an evidenced-based approach to treatment to reduce the long-term effects of trauma from abuse or neglect and to provide families with a healthy new beginning.

Our program promotes the safety and well-being of children by strengthening, protecting, and preserving families in our community using evidenced based practice and curriculum. Staff are trained in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and the Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment Method (FIE).
