The plan proposes a strategy for reducing stigma and local ownership of mental health and includes a diversion/re-entry system for individuals involved with criminal justice, the elimination of disparities through culturally competent services, improved access for rural areas, effective screening/referral in early childhood, and expanded mental health within schools.

Project Period: 09/30/2009 - 09/29/2012
Community Works will augment Greene County Missouri's current family centered service delivery system for Pregnant & Postpartum Women by 1) organizing substance abuse treatment using the Matrix Model, 2) adopting the Parent-Child Assistance Program's (PCAP) intensive case management 3) improving coordinated case management with Health Care, Mental Health and Social Services and 4) sponsoring a Peer Recovery Support Network. Community Works proposes to increase the well-being of and improve the permanency outcomes for pregnant and postpartum women and their children affected by alcohol or other substance use and abuse. Our treatment center, Carol Jones Recovery Services for Women (CJRC), supports in excess of 100 pregnant and postpartum women and their families per year. Faced with barriers to basic resources, these women (and their children) are at greater risk of experiencing serious physical and mental health problems, abusing their children, being victimized by domestic violence and securing and maintaining societal supports for their basic survival. Similarly, fathers of the children, partners of the women, and other extended family members of the women and children in treatment may face equally difficult challenges themselves, preventing the family from being safe, healthy and together.
