English term or phrase: Aftercare Planning
I am a freelance interpreter. I often have assignments from the DCF of my town so I need to have an idea of what this phrase means and how could I say it in Spanish.

I do not have much context so I am open for suggestions.

Leyendo un poco más sobre este departamento, creo que ofrece asistencia/intervención social, por ejemplo:

- reintegración/reinserción social para menores que han cometido actos delictivos.

- asistencia posthospitalaria, para aquellos que han sido dados de alta tras permanecer internados en una institución.

Es difícil saber a qué ámbito específico se refiere "aftercare planning", lo que está claro es que es una "PLANIFICACIÓN DEL SEGUIMIENTO O DE LAS MEDIDAS DE INTERVENCIÓN POSTERIORES".

Saludos.

aftercare planning
Planificacion para los cuidados post-hospitalizacion


Explanation:
Aftercare planning is the planning of services, prior to a discharge, to be put in place upon discharge for those children placed in residential treatment centers, be it for behavioral problems, psychological problems, juvenile sexual offenders not incarcerated but placed at juvenile sex offender rehabilitation centers, or drug abuse problems. Aftercare planning can include step down services to a less restrictive environment such as a group home, a therapeutic foster home, intensive outpatient treatment, drug relapse prevention program, Life Skills Training, or inhome services such as IICAPS dependent on the discharge plan for the child. Said aftercare services primarily address the child's ongoing needs for his/her problem, and can include as well reintegration into the community, and reunification services if applicable.
I hope this has been helpful. 11 years working with DCF.

Reference: Aftercare en los DCF

Reference information:
En los Departments of Children and Families en EE.UU., el "aftercare" suele mencionarse en dos contextos concretos: uno penal, cuando un menor sale de un centro de reclusión ("placement"), y otro médico-penal, cuando sale de un tratamiento por abuso de drogas. En ambos casos, me parece que los conceptos principales son el seguimiento y la reintegración en el ámbito familiar y social.

"Release
Decisions concerning release from placement are ultimately the responsibility of the Department of Children and
Families.
Aftercare/Reentry
Juvenile offenders can be released from placement by the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and returned to their homes. However, the juveniles remain committed and come under the supervision of DCF Parole Services until the term of commitment imposed by the court expires. DCF places a strong emphasis on community reintegration."
http://www.ncjj.org/pdf/State Profile Reports/CONNECTICUT re...

"The Aftercare Planning Conference will take place thirty (30) days prior to the child’s return from placement to:
home
a relative or guardian
a pre-adoptive home, or
to independent living.
Note: At the Aftercare Planning Conference a written Aftercare Plan shall be established."
http://www.dir.ct.gov/dcf/policy/Trmt36/36-115-2.htm

Este documento, de Florida, se refiere al segundo caso, y es muy esclarecedor:

"Substance Abuse Aftercare and Post Treatment Follow-Up"
The primary objectives of aftercare should be to:
1. Help the client to maintain stabilization of biological, psychological, and social functioning in the community;
2. Promote a positive lifestyle; and
3. Solidify the gains made in treatment. [...]
The Substance Abuse Program Office of the Florida Department of Children and Families acknowledges two primary definitions of aftercare. The first definition was developed as a result of a technical assistance workshop on aftercare and follow-up sponsored by SAMHSA-CSAT in October 2000. Aftercare was defined as "services rendered after the initial treatment episode with clinical, case management, and monitoring capabilities. These services are rendered in an outpatient setting with varying degrees of intensity." Aftercare is also defined in the State Integrated Substance Abuse Report (SISAR) Manual as “A placement that provides services to individuals who have completed treatment and who are in need of continued observation and support.”

neutral  Maria-Jose Pastor: a DCF placement is any placement where a child is placed OTHER than the home of the biological parents - it can be a foster home , a group home, a residencial treatment center, but not Juvenile detention. 11 years experience with DCF.

  -> OK; I was wrong to identify "placement" with "centros de reclusión". I was thinking of my first ref., from CT, on juvenile offenders being released from court-ordered "placement".
