The Response Training System (RTS) functions as the consultation arm of the CARTS Program. The primary goals of the RTS are to:

  • Enhance the continuity of treatment between the hospital and the residential,
  • Treatment center or group home by ‘exporting’ the treatment plan to the treatment facility,
  • Assist the residential staff in implementing discharge recommendations,
  • Provide technical assistance to the placement, and
  • Act as client advocates with respect to DCFS and other involved agencies.
