Description
Prior to the development of the CLIP Programs, Washington State children with severe psychiatric disturbances were frequently placed in residential settings that were not prepared to deal with their level of disturbance, or they were sent to facilities out of state. In 1977, the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) approached the private sector for assistance in developing a program model to provide extended psychiatric residential care.
