Through this system of care initiative, Hamilton County's Journey to Successful Living (Journey) will serve youth and young adults, ages 14-21, with serious mental health challenges, who are transitioning to adulthood. These youth will be involved with the mental health and substance abuse system, child welfare system, juvenile justice system, and/or mental retardation and developmental disability system. Journey will build upon an existing system of care, collaborations and infrastructure, by adding partners from schools, social services, vocational rehabilitation, housing, primary care and the business community to create a broad based, sustainable systemic change inclusive of policy reform and infrastructure development that will be maintained after federal funding has ended. To accomplish this, Project Journey will establish a sustainable system of care that will: 1) be youth-focused, family driven and culturally and linguistically competent, with sensitivity to the overrepresentation of African American youth; 2) transform the current infrastructure by developing new policies, protocols and tools that facilitate comprehensive service planning designed to address needs of youth/young adults transitioning to adulthood and their families; 3) ensure the best, most efficacious treatment practices are available through expansion of non traditional services and use of evidence- based and promising practices; 4) increase workforce competency through comprehensive training and technical assistance; 5) build a cross system data information system to better inform planning and practice; and 6) incorporate a comprehensive evaluation to improve the infrastructure and quality of the project, and to improve sustainability after the grant ends

FY 2009 Funding: $552,168
Project Period: 09/30/2009 - 09/29/2012
This project proposes to adapt two evidence-based interventions, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and Trauma - and Grief- Focused Component Therapy for Adolescents (TGCT-A) to address trauma-related symptoms and behaviors and to promote resiliency in two underserved and unique populations: 1) young children of military families and 2) adolescents in juvenile justice settings (JJS) and residential treatment centers (RTC). The two groups include children at risk for or displaying trauma-related problems such as Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, depression, anxiety, and/or behavior problems due to parental deployment(s); and adolescents with complex traumas such as child maltreatment, and family or community violence. For each group, the project will adapt the evidence-based intervention, including providing training protocols and resources, implementation strategies, and train-the-trainer toolkits, culminating in a web-based training in the third year of the grant. Beginning with pilot sites in Ohio, Ft. Hood and Tripler, the project will serve scores of children, families and adolescents in the first year, expanding to serve hundreds in years two and three and indirectly serving thousands of military families and youth in juvenile justice settings (JJS) and residential treatment centers (RTC) as the project's protocols, toolkits, and trained trainers disseminate the adapted models.

In the past two decades, Ohio's public mental health system has led the way to achieve reform and promote recovery. Now Ohio will build on that track record to achieve Mental Health Transformation. With strong leadership, the active involvement of all shareholders and support from the Mental Health System Transformation Grant, Ohio will knit together a wide range of resources and collaborations to achieve deeper change. Ohio approaches transformation as individuals and families approach recovery- as a meaningful process of internal change that requires strong external support. Ohio's resources include strong mental health leadership; effective advocacy groups; a demonstrated commitment to recovery, resiliency and cultural competence; nationally recognized approaches to promoting best/evidence-based practices, assessing outcomes, and evaluation research. Via this grant, Ohio will fully orient the mental health system and other systems to recovery, resiliency and culturally competent practices. Our goal and outcome is clear: children, families and adults will live their lives fully in their communities. Youth and adult consumers and families will be engaged in activities that affect their recoveries and service experiences, including person-centered planning, peer support and recovery/resiliency-oriented policy making. With the TSIG grant, Ohio will develop several new program approaches (i.e., trauma care for children and adults, older adult services and mental health supports for offenders reentering communities); integrate current policies and programs to emphasize person-centered planning, peer support and cultural competence; and develop the infrastructure to ensure effective collaboration and communication among all shareholders.

Wright State University through the Consumer Advocacy Model (CAM) program, an outpatient alcohol, drug, and mental health provider for persons with disabilities, proposes to address these needs through the creation of an e-therapy/community networks approach for Deaf persons referred to SUD treatment in Ohio. Over a period of three years, a minimum of 50 persons per year will be served through the state collaborative project that will both enhance the treatment experience and expand the number of Deaf individuals served. The proposed model will be based on knowledge currently available on best practices for this population, and it will include several components: 1. Individuals will be served in the "least restrictive environment" throughout Ohio in a combination of locally-available treatment that is augmented by e-therapy delivered via the CAM Program located in Dayton, Ohio. 2. Standard practices and levels of care will be enhanced through e-therapy that will supplement and strengthen the treatment episode, with an emphasis on learning about sustaining recovery. Group and individual counseling and support, and case management will be offered via electronic means, primarily though video conferencing and video phone technology. 3. All Deaf-specific services offered by CAM will be provided by individuals who come from a background in "Deaf culture", such as persons who are Deaf, children of Deaf adults (CODA), or Deaf services career professionals. Consumer feedback and guidance from a project Advisory Board will guide program content and service delivery. Enhanced services will be coordinated by a treatment plan shared with the primary community provider and CAM.
