Grantee Title: University of Alabama, SCY (TI13340)

GFA Program: Strengthening Communities – Youth (SCY)

Abstract:
This project develops a multifaceted strategy for treating substance abuse among adolescents living in inner-city neighborhoods in the Mobile, Alabama Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). During the past four decades, poverty among minorities living in inner-city neighborhoods has become increasingly pronounced and concentrated. Problems associated with poverty, including substance abuse and violence, have also become more pronounced during this period. One approach to neighborhood transformation, and the basis for this proposal, is to work with the inner-city residents to build a sense of community and a belief that they can improve the quality of life in their neighborhoods. This type of change is difficult to achieve, particularly when residents have felt powerless for generations. But if it can be achieved, it will have broad-ranging consequences. First, residents will become empowered to work with others in the metropolitan area to seek policy changes that will help their neighborhoods; put differently, they will be given voice as partners in coalitions designed to address inner-city problems, including substance abuse. Second, residents will become better able to decide collectively about what behaviors are unacceptable in their neighborhoods, and they will develop the ability to enforce those norms through informal social control. Third, residents will become more supportive of each other and better able to help each other in their times of need. This type of social support is essential if residents are going to use existing substance abuse treatment programs, and if they are going to avoid returning to patterns of substance abuse following completion of treatment programs. Conversely, it is unlikely that even a strong substance abuse treatment system can be effective in high-poverty neighborhoods if these types of transformations do not occur. Thus, individual treatment merges with neighborhood prevention to create supportive environments for youths who choose to disengage from or otherwise avoid involvement with drugs and alcohol. This project develops a strategy for accomplishing these goals in the Mobile MSA by (a) creating a substance abuse treatment coalition that includes resident groups from inner-city neighborhoods as its cornerstone; (b) opening substance abuse treatment centers in these neighborhoods; and (c) working with residents of these neighborhoods to develop a supportive community that can become a partner in substance abuse programs.

Grantee Title: Fairbanks Native Association/Life (TI4214)

GFA Program: Adolescent Residential Treatment (ART)

Abstract:
Life Givers, a program of the Fairbanks Native Association, is a state-of-the-art treatment program for adolescent Native teens. The service expansion and treatment improvement project will pay for 6 of 7 residential beds designated for non-pregnant/parenting teens. During its 8 years of operation Life Givers has achieved impressive outcomes including longer than average length of stay (114 days compared to the national rate of 60 days), a treatment completion rate of up to 42% as compared to 30-35% nationally, 90% bed utilization, dramatic reductions in physical and child abuse at follow-up, and 30% reduction in substance abuse at follow- up, comparable to the national average. Life Givers programming is nationally recognized as a "best practice" in gender specific programming. It is featured in the publication, Guiding Principles for Promising Female Programming: An Inventory of Best Practices, and it is one of only 16 programs selected nationwide (Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, 1998). The anticipated achievements of this service expansion and quality enhancement project will be the increased availability of residential care while also achieving decreases in substance abuse and other negative indicators related to substance abuse. With increased capacity Life Givers expects to serve up to 18 adolescent Native girls during the year.

Grantee Title: American Indian Prevention Coalition, Inc (TI14254)

GFA Program: Adolescent Residential Treatment (ART)

Abstract:
The American Indian Circle of Health Youth Treatment program will enhance and expand residential substance abuse treatment services for American Indian adolescents. The program will enhance current services by developing a Comprehensive Continuing Care program for adolescents completing a treatment program and providing Continuing Care services to 100 adolescents annually. Services will integrate evidence-based and tradition healing with culturally respectful treatment service delivery. Services will be coordinated with other social service agencies in the community, including educational, juvenile justice, child welfare, and mental health agencies in order to provide the most cost effective method. Treatment services provide a continuum of integrated treatment services, including case management, for children and adolescents with substance abuse disorders and their families; provide treatment that is gender-specific and culturally appropriate; involve and work with families of children and adolescents receiving treatment; address the relationship between substance abuse and violence; and provide continuing care services for children and adolescents and their families after completion of substance abuse treatment. The program works to reintegrate these Indian adolescents into their environments, both reservation and urban, upon leaving the residential treatment programs and assist youth who have been emancipated or otherwise have "aged out" of adolescent services and must now transition to independent living arrangements in their community. The Circle of Health Youth Treatment program will expand services and enhance services by (1) increasing the number of youth served in residential treatment by 20 beds annually, (2) increasing the length of stay through scholarship extensions of 10 days, (3) increasing the number of youth served through Intensive Outpatient services; and (4) increasing the number of youth served through Outpatient services.

Grantee Title: CODAC, SCY (TI13344)

GFA Program: Strengthening Communities – Youth (SCY)

Abstract:
The proposed project is a joint effort among CODAC Behavioral Health Services (the lead agency) and a wide variety of treatment providers and community organization in Pima County, Arizona to improve the community’s abilities to address drug and alcohol programs among youth (ages 12 to 21) by improving the infrastructure, continuum of care and coordination of treatment services resulting in a more comprehensive and cohesive treatment system. To accomplish this, the project will: (1) develop linkages and networking mechanisms throughout the community to facilitate identification, assessment, referral and treatment of youth with substance abuse problems and their families; (2) increase substance abuse treatment capacity; (3) provide a continuum of treatment services for youth experiencing drug and alcohol problems and their families; (4) develop a Management Information System (MIS) to facilitate the identification, referral, assessment, treatment and tracking of youth through the continuum of care; (5) address the relationship between substance abuse and violence throughout the continuum of care; and (6) develop and implement outreach activities that will educate the community leading to earlier identification, referral, and treatment. CODAC Behavioral Health Services will serve as the central coordinating body. The Case Management staff will also conduct assessments at intake, 6 months and 12 months, work with clients and their families to find appropriate treatment (maintaining contact throughout the treatment process and assisting in transition from treatment to aftercare) and will provide case management, as needed. CODAC will also serve as a clearinghouse for information on available treatment services within Pima County. This information will be accessible for all individuals who are seeking help but who are uncertain where to turn. In addition, project staff will provide education to community organizations that work with youth (e.g., sports leagues, faith-based organizations, youth agencies such as Boys and Girls Clubs, public and private schools, etc.) related to early identification of substance abuse problems and how to refer youth for services

Grantee Title: Pima County TCE/HIV (TI15863)

GFA Program: Targeted Capacity Expansion/HIV (TCE/HIV)

Abstract:
The Pima County Health Department will enhance capacity of its collaboratively managed Eon program to offer culturally responsive substance abuse treatment and HIV/AIDS services to sexual minority youth of color and their multi-ethnic peers. Eon's capacity enhancement project will reach a total of 1,960 individuals. Of those reached, 318 individuals will be served by substance abuse treatment services. The target population is African American, Latino/Hispanic and other racial/ethnic minority adolescents 14-17 years old and African American, Latino/Hispanic and other racial/ethnic minority men, between the ages of 14 and 23, who identify with sexual minority communities. The goals of the project are (1) to increase accessibility of culturally responsive substance abuse and HIV risk reduction services for sexual minority youth of color and their multi-ethnic peers and (2) to provide sexual minority youth of color and their multi-ethnic peers with culturally responsive substance abuse treatment and HIV risk reduction services, including HIV counseling and testing. The Eon program will accomplish these goals by integrating substance abuse and HIV risk reduction activities, creating formal referral systems, linking youth to support services, conducting outreach and pretreatment, providing integrated substance abuse treatment and HIV risk reduction activities.

Grantee Title: Pima County Department of Institutional Health (TI16386)

GFA Program: Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE)

Abstract:
The Pima County Department of Institutional Health (DIH), in collaboration with five community partners, including Pima Prevention Partnership, an award winning anti-drug coalition and licensed substance abuse treatment provider, proposes to establish an intensive outpatient substance abuse day treatment service in Pima County, Arizona. This day treatment service is designed to address the needs of adjudicated youths, 70 percent of whom are from communities of color, since public intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment programs for adolescents in Pima County do not exist. DIH and its partners will address this service gap by establishing an outpatient substance abuse day treatment program for youths on probation or parole, who reside in metropolitan Tucson and Pima County. Research indicates that intensive youth substance abuse day treatment programs have better treatment outcomes than residential treatment or incarceration (Coalition for Juvenile Justice, 2004). The following target group characteristics further emphasize the critical need for substance abuse day 98 percent of males and 91 percent of females in Arizona?treatment services: youth detention centers need substance abuse treatment (Arizona Department of More than 50 percent of juveniles entering the?Juvenile Corrections, 2001); Pima County Juvenile Court Center during the last year tested positive for an illegal substance and 79 percent had documented substance use in their court In 2002, 276 youths detained in Pima County correctional?records; and facilities were placed in residential treatment programs outside the county, 830 were placed in low-intensity outpatient treatment; and over 500 youths arrested for a drug offense were not placed into any treatment The proposed project, Success by Design will measurably reduce the illicit drug use of 180 enrolled youths by providing each youth and their parent/caregiver with six months of treatment and aftercare services. The collaborating treatment provider, Pima Prevention Partnership, has more than two years experience providing all of the proposed, evidence-based services: • Assessment - using the Global Appraisal of Individual Needs (GAIN); • Substance abuse treatment – using the Motivational Enhancement Therapy/Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MET/CBT 5) model; • Relapse prevention - using the Reconnecting Youth model; • Family therapy – using the Functional Family Therapy (FFT) model; and • Wrap-around services – including enrollment in an on-site public charter high school for high-risk youths; daily homework help and academic tutoring; as well as social, recreational, and community service learning activities after school and on weekends.

Grantee Title: Pima Prevention Partnership (TI15413)

GFA Program: Effective Adolescent Treatment (EAT)

Abstract:
Pima Prevention Partnership (PPP), a non-profit, licensed youth substance abuse treatment provider in Tucson/Pima County Arizona, aims to institutionalize Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into its current Pima County Teen Court, a juvenile court diversion program for youth, 12-17 years old, who have committed a misdemeanor offense (e.g. drug and alcohol related, shoplifting, simple assault, criminal damage). Peer juries sentence each Teen Court participant to a set of constructive consequences based on the offense. PPP is committed to more effectively addressing the needs of youth referred for marijuana by adopting research-based methodology. By institutionalizing MET/CBT5 over a three year period, PPP intends to serve 225 youth offenders and reduce their current juvenile court recidivism rate. PPP will integrate MET/CBT5 treatment protocols into its current Teen Court Recovery Together substance abuse program aimed at youths and their parents, offer MET/CBT5 to 75 youths per year; and integrate GPRA, GAIN and MET/CBT5 data collection protocols into its current database to track client progress and intervention results over time. To achieve positive treatment outcomes, after completing the Recovery Together workshop with a parent/caregiver, each youth will participate in six weeks of combined MET/CBT5 interventions, including Individual Assessment, Individual Counseling, and Group Counseling with peers. To further ensure success, PPP will also provide case-management services during treatment, and aftercare services.

Grantee Title: Pima Prevention Partnership (TI17070)

GFA Program: Youth Offender Reentry Program (YORP)

Abstract:
The Pima County Community Collaborative (PCCC) proposes to address the unmet substance abuse treatment and wrap-around support needs of incarcerated juveniles (14-18 years old) who are reintegrating into their family and community during the 4-year funding period. Concurrently, this Collaborative of juvenile justice, health, treatment, and community-based entities will pursue community-wide adoption of policies/practices to enhance systems of care coordination. There are currently no public intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment programs for adolescents in Pima County. The following target group characteristics provide evidence of the critical needs of juveniles reintegrating into Pima County following incarceration: „P 96.7 percent of males in Arizona youth detention centers need substance abuse treatment (Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections, 2003); and „P In 2003, only one out of every eight incarcerated youth needing substance abuse services received those services. „P Effective treatment attends to multiple needs of the individual, not just his or her drug use. (NIDA, 1999) The PCCC proposes to address this critical unmet need in the following ways: Services/Treatment: Pima Prevention Partnership (PPP), a 12-year old award winning anti-drug coalition and licensed substance abuse treatment provider, will establish intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment services. PPP will conduct the following treatment services for incarcerated youth with substance abuse problems returning to Pima County community: „P Psycho-social and substance abuse assessment using the Global Appraisal of Individual Needs (GAIN); „P Substance abuse treatment using Motivational Enhancement Therapy/Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MET/CBT 5) and assessment of readiness for community-based day treatment; and „P Four months of intensive day treatment support including daily relapse prevention (CENAPS model); wrap-around support including academic enrollment and daily homework help, family advocacy, physical and mental health care, and social, recreational, and community service learning activities; and family therapy using the Functional Family Therapy (FFT) model. The combination of these services is expected to significantly improve the treatment outcomes of 205 youth during the four year funding period. Systems Linkages: Pima County Department of Institutional Health (DIH) will guide the PCCC representatives from juvenile justice, mental health, treatment, community-based entities, and the regional behavioral health authority to develop and adopt policies and practices that result in an enhanced county-wide system for addressing the multiple needs of juveniles returning to the community and to their families following incarceration in a juvenile correctional facility.

Grantee Title: Salt River Pima - Ma (TI14051)
GFA Program: Treatment Drug Court (TDC)

Abstract:
The Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC) is implementing the “ ‘En Novc’ (My Friend) Drug Court Expansion and Enhancement Project.” Building on the addition of services to post-adjudicated youth now in progress, the project increases coordination among existing service providers and initiates outreach and education activities that will both encourage utilization of the court and maximize the effectiveness of the culturally respectful drug court services now offered. The project name, “En Novc” or “my friend” in the language of the SRPMIC people, invokes the traditional American Indian foundation of the court enhancement project. Drawing on the recollections of tribal elders, drug court staff seek to embed the court's substance abuse treatment services in the Community's traditional ways. As a result, the enhanced and expanded drug court services recreate the Community's sense of responsibility for the well being of its young people. They create a commitment to embrace substance abuse treatment as the first step in rebuilding the Community's sense of unity and well being and provide community education that emphasizes healthy lifestyles and relationships as a way to a harmonious life. They also implement a restorative justice component in the context of the existing drug court services.

Grantee Title: University of Arizona (TI14400)

GFA Program: Targeted Capacity Expansion/HIV (TCE/HIV)

Abstract:
Conexiones Sanas is a comprehensive, culturally competent HIV, STD, TB, and Hepatitis B and C prevention enhancement project for adolescents enrolled in EMPACT's Teen Substance Abuse Treatment Program (TSAT) and Drug Diversion (DDP) programs. Over the five-year grant period Conexiones Sanas will serve 384 youth enrolled in TSAT and 575 youth enrolled in the DDP, all in Maricopa County (Phoenix) Arizona. The majority are from minority ethnic backgrounds with the largest minority group being Mexican-origin Hispanic. Most of the youth come from low income and single parent families – families in which problems with alcohol and/or drug use within the home are commonly reported. The primary goals of the Conexiones Sanas enhancement project are to increase adolescents' knowledge of anatomy, HIV, STDs, TB, and Hepatitis B and C; increase adolescents' understanding of the link between drug use, sexual risk behavior, and HIV and other infectious diseases; increase adolescents' understanding of how their life context impacts HIV and other health related risk behaviors; increase adolescents' ability to be abstinent from sex or to negotiate safe sex (if not abstinent); and increase the number of adolescents who receive HIV, STD, TB, and Hepatitis B and C testing and treatment and/or immunization. The Conexiones Sanas enhancement project will extend the TSAT program from 12 to 14 weeks and the DDP from 14 to 16 weeks and enhance each program by adding 3 group sessions, 4 individual sessions, and an on-site HIV, STD, TB and Hepatitis B and C testing, treatment/referral component along with evaluation activities. A participatory process is incorporated into the project so that results are openly shared and client, parent, well as clinical and evaluation staff input is possible.

Grantee Title: White Mountain Apache Tribe TCE (TI14920)

GFA Program: Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE)

Abstract:
The White Mountain Apache Tribe (WMAT), a tribal nation of 18,000 Native Americans in central Arizona, will enhance substance abuse treatment on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. The project will provide intensive in-home, substance abuse counseling services and community-based recreational programs for up to 50 at-risk and/or court-ordered Apache youth ages 13-17 and their families each year. The Chagha She Binalwod (Strengthening Youth) project will address significant gaps in treatment services that limit access and long-term effectiveness of the current substance abuse treatment services. Chagha She Binalwod (Strengthening Youth) will establish an on-Reservation model of treatment for addicted Native American youth ages 13-17 that will (1) decrease alcohol and substance abuse by 10% each year; (2) reduce substance-related juvenile offending by 20% each year; and (3) establish a viable diversion alternative to jailor lengthy probation. Multi-Systemic Therapy (MST), a SAMHSA blue ribbon substance abuse treatment model, stands at the core of the project's design. MST professionals will work with trained Apache Transition Specialists to design and deliver intensive in-home counseling to youth and families conjunction with culturally appropriate, community-designed mainstream recreational and social programs and "give back" projects. Additional resources will be directed toward WMA T Juvenile Court to increase its ability to assess delinquent youth for substance abuse issues and provide a viable diversion program to jailor lengthy probation.

ARKANSAS

Grantee Title: UAMS, Effective Adolescent Treatment (TI15467)

GFA Program: Effective Adolescent Treatment (EAT)

Abstract:
Alcohol and drug abuse treatment services for adolescents with comorbid psychiatric disorders in central Arkansas were expanded to include or MET/CBT 5. The project is designed to treat 240 youth ages 12-18 years identified as needing substance abuse treatment by MET/CBT 5 intervention in three mental health clinics (community, school-based, and juvenile justice sites). MET/CBT 5 is a five-session treatment comprised of two individual sessions of MET and three group session of CBT. The primary caretaker, and other family members participate. Multifamily and adolescent aftercare groups are provided. Multifamily groups address drug education, parenting skills, how to recognize relapse signs, and coping skills. Aftercare group meetings are held every month for 3 months and again at 6 months and 1 year. The project aims to increase retention by offering services appropriate to the target population and by maintaining frequent contacts with adolescents and families throughout the intake, intervention, continuing care, and follow-up periods. In addition to collecting GPRA and GAIN data at intake, 3, 6, and 12 months, the local evaluation plan includes process and outcome evaluation to provide feedback for program improvement. The expected outcomes include decreased or reduced adolescent use of AOD and consequences of this use; improved stability of living environment, school attendance, and decreased involvement in the juvenile justice system; increased treatment capacity; improved quality of care by training staff to perform appropriate assessments and evidence-based interventions; and increased access to treatment.

CALIFORNIA

Grantee Title: Asian American Recovery Services (TI15577)

GFA Program: Effective Adolescent Treatment (EAT)

Abstract:
The project will utilize five-session Motivational Enhancement Therapy/Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MET/CBT5) to provide preliminary substance abuse treatment services to multicultural youth, both males and females, ages 13-17, in Daly City and Pacifica, California. Daly City has the highest percentage of Asian/Pacific Islanders (A/PIs) of any California city with a population over 100,000. AARS’ MET/CBT 5 program has been designed as a targeted capacity expansion program will serve approximately 55 youth per year (165 over the life of the project). Clients will enter the program from two existing AARS program referral streams, one mandatory (from the San Mateo County Juvenile Probation Department into AARS’ Project Oasis) and the other voluntary (from cooperating school counselors in AARS’ Stay Safe program in seven local schools in Daly City and Pacifica). Both referral streams will include A/PI youth as well as non-A/PI youth (primarily Latinos). Previous A/PI youth from these exceptionally diverse referral streams have included young people of Filipino, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, and Tongan ancestry. Non-A/PI youth have included Mexicans, Salvadorians, Nicaraguans, Peruvians, African Americans, and Native Americans as well as Caucasians of European ancestry. Clients will be allocated among four treatment tracks: mandatory/males, mandatory/females, voluntary/males, and voluntary/females. AP/I youth are expected to predominate among the clients in the voluntary tracks while non-AP/I youth are expected to be more numerous in the mandatory tracks. The need for gender and cultural adaptations to the therapeutic model has been identified as one of the most important issues in clinical management and clinical care in the multi-site field trial of outpatient treatments for adolescent substance abuse in CSAT’s recent, large-scale evaluation of five complementary approaches (including MET/CBT5) to Cannibis Youth Treatment (CYT). The AARS program design is expected to facilitate the collection of local data (in addition to GRPA, GAIN-I, and GAIN M-90 datasets) that will help refine the standardized MET/CBT 5 treatment through carefully-documented therapeutic adaptations that take cognizance of gender differences and cultural diversity in the clients served.

Grantee Title: Atlantic Recovery Services (TI16961)

GFA Program: Youth Offender Reentry Program (YORP)

Abstract:
Atlantic Recovery Services’ Juvenile Reentry project provides residential and intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment and transitional support for incarcerated juvenile offenders as they return to their communities from imprisonment. The project assists juvenile substance abusers aged 14 to 25 exiting the juvenile justice system and will provide comprehensive services to 71 participants in year one. The project will work with juveniles incarcerated inside Los Angeles county facilities (Challenger Memorial Youth Center and Dorothy F. Kirby Center) and from California state facilities (the California Youth Authority). Participants will be recruited from inside incarceration facilities and will provide with assessment and initial coordinated case management services while imprisoned. Upon release participants will enter either Intensive Outpatient or Residential service tracks where they will receive comprehensive substance abuse and reentry services. The target population composition is based on the populations incarcerated in those facilities and will thus include males and females and all minority groups with the majority of participants from Hispanic and African American racial/ethnic groups.

Grantee Title: County of Santa Cruz, California Alcohol and Drug Program (TI14103)

GFA Program: Adolescent Residential Treatment (ART)

Abstract:
Puente’s (Spanish for "Bridges") will enhance adolescent treatment outcomes in Santa Cruz County, California, through a county-wide "passport for service" model of standardized assessment and portable treatment plans; case management and paraprofessional youth advocacy to bridge the gap between residential treatment and continuing care; and a research-to-practice system for implementation of evidence-based, culturally competent best practices. The project will be a complement to Juntas Para el Futuro, a local juvenile justice reform effort funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Reclaiming Futures initiative. Both programs promote full community re-integration for adolescents with substance use disorders. The two will collaborate on trainings, data analysis, community education and involving young people in the policy planning process. Puente’s will address the risks of treatment dropout and relapse by developing standardized, culturally competent, developmentally appropriate, strength-based client assessment instruments and treatment plans and by providing intensive case management services to support adolescents and their families as they transition from residential treatment to continuing care services. Puente’s will hire, train and supervise natural leaders from the young adult recovery community to serve as mentors to adolescents, linking them to informal support networks and guiding them through the process of community reintegration. A broad array of services and supports will be made available to build on the strengths of adolescents in the areas of education, vocational preparation, community service, arts, recreation, etc. Puente’s will also establish a Treatment Provider Network to disseminate emerging research and facilitate agency self-assessment and planning for incorporation of research-based, culturally competent practices.

Grantee Title:County of Santa Cruz Probation Department (TI15584)

GFA Program: Effective Adolescent Treatment (EAT)

Abstract:
The Motivational Approach to Success (MAS) Santa Cruz Project will provide assessment, an evidence-based curriculum, and continuing care for 210 youth on probation in Santa Cruz County, California, over a three-year period. The goal of the project is to reduce marijuana and other drug use and related juvenile justice involvement among the youth in treatment. The curriculum is Motivational Enhancement Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Adolescent Cannabis Users; Five Sessions (MET CBT 5), which has been shown to increase the youth’s motivation and skills to reduce his or her drug use. The Santa Cruz County Probation Department will serve as the project grantee and will provide project administration and case management services. Treatment services will be provided by two exemplary community-based organizations: Pajaro Valley Prevention and Student Assistance and Youth Services, a division of the Santa Cruz Community Counseling Center. Both of these organizations are currently licensed to provide outpatient drug treatment, and each incorporates supporting and continuing care services that will benefit program participants. Youth assessments will be administered using the Global Assessment of Individual Needs (GAIN), Forms I and M-90. These instruments provide measures of most aspects of the youth’s functioning that might impact his or her drug use, as well as family information that may support or hinder the youth’s treatment. The GAIN aids in treatment planning and the M-90 will be used to measure progress at 3, 6 and 12-month points from the youth’s entry into the program. The GAIN has been adopted by two other local initiatives, the Reclaiming Futures and Los Puentes projects, and the Santa Cruz County System of Care is planning to adopt it throughout the local system of providers. The resulting “passport for service” will enable treatment participants to obtain better information and feedback on their own progress, and experience greater consistency across programs in treatment planning and measures of success. In addition, shared data will create a common language among providers, reduce the need to collect assessment data for each program, and enable more efficient access to treatment.

Grantee Title: Los Angeles County Department of Health Services (TI14030)

GFA Program: Treatment Drug Court (TDC)

Abstract:
The Los Angeles (LA) County Department of Health Services Alcohol and Drug Program Administration is significantly expanding the quality and availability of alcohol and drug treatment services for young people in LA County. The program creates an innovative model of cost-effective alcohol and drug treatment that can be applied to juvenile courts throughout LA County and the country. It anticipates substantially reducing the number of alcohol and drug addicted young people in LA County and significantly decreasing the rate of juvenile and early adult crime in the LA region. The first of three key modifications to the existing system includes testing the effectiveness of a new six-month and a new nine- month course of treatment and demonstrating these abbreviated regimens have success similar to that achieved by our existing longer interventions. The second involves changing the manner in which young people are referred to Drug Court services, by broadening the criteria for admission, and by expanding referral and assessment procedures. The third means enhancing some of the existing elements of the current drug treatment process to achieve desired outcomes more quickly and cost-effectively.

Grantee Title: Matrix Institute (TI15586)

GFA Program: Effective Adolescent Treatment (EAT)

Abstract:
Adolescents requiring substance abuse treatment services will receive a 5-session, 5-week program, “Motivational Enhancement Therapy/Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - 5 Sessions” (MET/CBT 5), at the Matrix Institute in Los Angeles. Approximately 170 adolescents will receive two individual session of MET, followed by three CBT group meetings. Clients and families will also have access to Matrix adolescent program family/education groups and continuing care groups. Those needing additional, or other care will be assisted with referrals to other treatment services either within the Matrix program or to other community providers. The sequence of interventions (MET then CBT) as well as the sequencing of individually-based and group-based modalities focuses the clinical interventions to maximize the probability of engaging new clients and achieving clinical goals. Moreover, each modality is best suited to the purpose of each intervention. The MET approach is particularly appropriate for an adolescent population who are likely to challenge and resist a more directive or confrontational approach. The CBT component of the treatment intervention provides clients with training in specific behavioral coping skill necessary to deal with high-risk situations. This practical, skills training approach provides adolescents with a repertoire of behaviors which will allow them to identify and deal with circumstances which might otherwise lead to drug use. Matrix Institute counselors currently treat adolescents with a combination of individual and group sessions and employ a motivational interviewing style. In addition, the Matrix Adolescent Treatment Model employs elements of the CBT component of the MET/CBT 5. The compatibility of treatment philosophies and methods will facilitate the implementation of the MET/CBT 5 program and result in a multidimensional adolescent treatment service.

Grantee Title: Monterey County Health Department (TI16354)

GFA Program: Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE)

Abstract:
The Monterey County (MC) Health Department Behavioral Health Division (BHD) proposes to provide substance abuse treatment to youth using the Family Support Network (FSN) evidence based practice. The majority of clients are Latino This rural/small-town county has high levels of gang activity and substance abuse Youth have minimal access to substance abuse services. The project will collaborate with MC Probation and MC’s SAMHSA System of Care project. BHD, a licensed substance abuse and mental health service provider, currently provides mental health services to incarcerated youth, most of whom have a co-occurring substance abuse disorder. The substance abuse issue is addressed in this context. But the County lacks substance abuse treatment services for adolescents who are not incarcerated but have moderate to serious substance abuse problems. The proposed project will build on the existing collaboration between BHD and the local corrections/probation agency, MC Probation. BHD will employ a Project Director and three social workers who will provide services at two sites in the count and at clients’ homes. The FSN approach, selected because of the importance of family in the target population, provides the adolescents with a structured program of motivational enhancement therapy (MET) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions, along with case management. Their families receive parenting education and in-home family therapy sessions. Follow-up support groups and counseling will be provided by the project team and community referrals. Cultural competency will be addressed through a variety of means, including diverse staffing, regular training, and focus group input from clients and families. MC Probation will engage and refer clients to the project and provide supervision, AOD testing, data sharing, and other services Other agencies will also refer clients, including the SAMHSA-funded La Familia Sana/The Healthy Family Children and Youth System of Care, because distances to be traveled create a barrier to services in this large rural county, the proposed project will offer services at both North County and South County sites, provide transportation with leased vans, and provide services in clients’ homes. Five staff members (four of whom are Latino) have been identified for the project; 2.5 FTE staff is to be hired. The program sites are identified and formally approved as service sites. The project will be evaluated by the GPRA, the Adolescent Addiction Severity Index, the Back on Track instrument, and process and qualitative methods including client and family focus groups.

GFA Program: Effective Adolescent Treatment (EAT)

Abstract:
Generation 7 is an adolescent treatment program based on the implementation of Motivational Enhancement Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for substance abusing Native American youth in Oakland, California. The treatment plan interweaves MET/CBT 5 with the holistic approach of the Family & Child Guidance Clinic of the Native American Health Center. The target population consists of Native American youth, ages 12-21, who live in the San Francisco Bay Area, have substance abuse or dependence diagnoses, and who are appropriate for outpatient settings. The program is designed to serve 120 youth during the course of the 3-year project. Parents and significant others are encouraged to participate in the treatment. The clinical staff of professional therapists, social workers and case managers, and youth outreach workers jointly develop individualized care plans for each youth admitted to treatment.

Grantee Title: Phoenix House of California, Inc. (TI14252)

GFA Program: Adolescent Residential Treatment (ART)

Abstract:
Phoenix House of San Diego is enhancing its existing reentry and aftercare program to create an intensive continuing care program— the Family and Community Reintegration Program. The Reintegration Program will be provided to youth leaving residence at Phoenix Academy of San Diego at Descanso, a 40-bed group home that provides long-term residential placement and state-certified substance abuse treatment services to teens and their families. The program builds upon the tenets of Phoenix Academy's adolescent therapeutic community methodology. It begins with three months of extensive reentry programming while the youth is still in residence at the Academy. The first three-month postresidential treatment phase then provides intensive support for the initial transition back into family and community, and as the youth and his/her family regain their footing in society, the intensity of continuing care treatment is stepped down for two subsequent three-month phases. Using a case-management approach, the Reintegration Program covers four key treatment domains—family, school, work and peers/recovery— with the goal of treating the whole individual, restoring him/her to a positive social environment, and helping him/her maintain a life free from substance abuse.

Grantee Title: San Mateo County Dept of Human Services (TI14207)

GFA Program: Treatment Drug Court (TDC)

Abstract:
San Mateo County Juvenile Drug Court Program is expanding its efforts to work with youth who are in the early stages of offending. This expansion targets a more high-risk population: multi-recidivist girls with significant substance abuse problems who are currently placed in facilities outside of the county. The program maintains these girls in the community by combining the close supervision and structured approach of the drug court with a comprehensive wraparound system of services and treatment. The target population for the Expanded Juvenile Drug Court is girls between the ages of 13-18 who have a significant alcohol or other drug problem; are presenting with a current charge and whose offense history makes it likely that they would receive an out-of-county placement if they were not enrolled in drug court services; or have multiple risk factors that present the likelihood that they will continue with behaviors that present a significant risk to the community and to the girls themselves. This program expansion is projected to serve 30 girls in the first year and 30 girls thereafter with a 12-month intensive service phase and 12 months of aftercare. Participants have the following services available to them: intensive day substance abuse treatment, mental health care, medical care, educational services and tutoring programs, vocational assessment and training, adolescent pregnancy and parenting programs, and parenting education and parent support.
