Dear Provider,

The Indiana Department of Child Services has provided SCAN, Inc. dollars to be used for local child abuse prevention services. The Region 4 Regional Service Council has selected program priorities for these services. There are service standards for each of the priorities. The priorities selected are Out of School Programs, Role Modeling Programs, Domestic Violence Education and Prevention, Community Education, After School Programs, Teen Court, and Parenting Education. We will only be contracting for services that meet these priorities and service standards.
