Brianna Drum Email and Phone Number

As an ongoing caseworker I am responsible for protecting children, encouraging family stability, and promoting self-reliance for a stronger community. I accomplish this by identifying strengths and needs of each family and developing an individualized case plan. I complete referrals to community providers, such as services for counseling, drug and alcohol abuse, mental health, domestic violence, parenting education and other similar activities. I provide support and monitor progress toward case plan goals for each family I work with. I monitor progress through continual monthly visits with the family and case plan members, court hearings, semi-annual administrative reviews, parental visits, contacts with services providers, etc. I also work with court representatives and other agencies to coordinate services on an ongoing basis to monitor the wellbeing of children and teens in protective care. Lastly, throughout my continual work with the family I maintain proper documentation for each case on an ongoing basis.

As a direct support professional I was responsible for maintaining community involvement, independence, and self-identification of goals and interests for individuals diagnosed with developmental disabilities. I accomplished this by providing support to each individual to meet the goals on their individual support plans. I provided support through team collaboration, building and maintain trusting relationships with the individuals and advocating for their individual rights.
