The Receiving Office (RO) is the first point of contact for all families who are interested in services offered by FHO. The RO provides an opportunity for parents and guardians to meet with Case Officers and have a focal point of contact, discuss their concerns and expectations regarding their child, make appointments with other departments, discuss transition plans or simply have someone to lend a listening ear. The key function of the RO is case management, support and coordination of services.
The RO also support data gathering and manges a data repository. While the data supports client tracking and coordination of programmes, it also provides the Team with valuable information to guide programme planning.
The team members of the RO have diverse work experiences that complement one another. The RO team has three Case Officers, a Database Administrator/ IT support, and an Administration Assistant.
