Foster Care Partnerships
Centene works hand-in-hand with community partners, agencies, and organizations to ensure that care for children in foster care is coordinated and rooted in the realities of the communities we serve.
Through this collaborative model, we bring the right people together to provide holistic, quality care.
Our valued partners include:
By prioritizing deep, community‑rooted partnerships, our Washington health plan Coordinated Care works with organizations to meet local needs and improve outcomes for those touched by foster care.
Meet Linda, a Superior HealthPlan member, who is a foster parent of four children with complex healthcare needs. Watch how a strong partnership between a managed care organization and a provider has made a tremendous difference in this family.
ATTACh is a national organization addressing attachment issues in traumatized children. Centene sponsors a virtual peer-led support group for foster and adoptive caregivers that members from all of our health plans can participate in.
“I’m a parent and a professional therapist. I’ve taken lots of training and been in lots of support groups, and this one is by far the best I have ever experienced. The only one that combines all three elements of sound science, practical application, and support from others with lived experience.”
