Care Management for At-Risk Children (CMARC)

Who is eligible for CMARC?

Care Management for At-Risk Children (CMARC) is a program offered at no charge for children from birth to under 5 years of age who:

• have special health care needs
• have experienced the Infant Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
• are dealing with adverse childhood events
• and/or are referred by the child’s physician or health plan

Services

When a referral is received, a CMARC Care Manager works with families to see if services would be helpful. For those who qualify and choose to participate, a personalized plan of care is created together with the family.

CMARC Care Managers will:

• Recognize you as the expert on your child

• Partner with your child’s health care provider

• Answer your questions and concerns

• Connect you to community resources

• Provide education to strengthen lasting parenting skills

Support is offered through home visits, phone calls, doctor visits, and other types of contact—based on what works best for your family.

Referral Form

Children are referred to Care Management services by their physician, health plan or by any community partner (ie: WIC, therapist, etc.). Self-referrals can also be made. 

To make a referral, complete the CMARC Referral Form (PDF) and fax to 704-934-4210, attention CMARC staff.
