| The State of Arizona plans to extend its existing behavioral health system co-occurring infrastructure to the State's adult and juvenile criminal justice systems. The intention is to build the workforce, clinical, and information infrastructure necessary to ensure that all individuals who come in contact with the criminal justice system are provided with a consistent and comprehensive approach to the detection, assessment, and treatment of co-occurring disorders in a culturally competent manner that is inclusive of evidence-based practices. Their four key objectives are: 1) local and state criminal justice systems will implement a uniform process for ensuring that individuals within their custody are screened for the presence of mental illnesses and substance use disorders; 2) individuals exiting the correctional systems who have been positively screened will be appropriately diagnosed; 3) informational systems will be integrated to foster the flow of clinically relevant information among and between criminal justice and behavioral health treatment systems and settings; and 4) workforce development initiatives will be targeted to criminal justice and behavioral health service professionals. To evaluate the viability of this approach, a quasi-experimental pilot demonstration study will be undertaken that incorporates pre-release screening, assessment, and transition planning for inmates of the state correctional system, and co-occurring and culturally competent post-release services, including housing supports, intensive case management, and outpatient treatment services. | ||

The Arizona Vision, which identifies meaningful behavioral health service outcomes for eligible children and their families, is built on a set of Principles, based on the Child and Adolescent Service System Program (CASSP) and the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) core system of care values, to which Arizona child serving agencies are committed. The Arizona Vision and Principles, in turn, are contractual obligations established by ADHS, implemented largely through the Tribal and the Regional Behavioral Health Authorities (T/RBHAs) and their child and family-serving providers. | ||

| The proposal, "Promoting Non Violence and Healthy Relationships for Teen Girls" targets 8th grade girls as they prepare for a difficult transition year into high school. The entire 8h grade class of female students will be offered the program via a mandatory exploratory class. Research has suggested that it is important to deal with subjects of violence in relationships in gender segregated groups to allow the participants to deal with the material without preoccupation of how they are being viewed. Osborn Middle School has also experienced the national trend of an increased amount of violence being perpetrated by girls. Therefore, this proposal will provide targeted and more intensive intervention with teen girls. Goals of the Project : To reduce positive attitudes toward violence as measured by a reduction in positive attitudes toward violence on the compiled student questionnaire; to reduce threatening and violent behaviors as measured by discipline reports and self reports; to reduce the risk of involvement in violent relationships as demonstrated by an increased knowledge of the dynamics of violent/unhealthy relationships; and to reduce the risk of involvement in violent relationships as demonstrated by a reduction in the personal norms of accepting violence in couple relationships. | ||

Educational presentations on the identification and treatment of behavioral health problems to 750 providers, case managers, and caregivers per year will be offered. Services will treat behavioral health concerns, including substance abuse, risk factors associated with mental illness or addictions, as well as offering bilingual services in Spanish.

| Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grants (SPF SIG)--Arizona The Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grants are used to advance community-based programs for substance abuse prevention, mental health promotion, and mental illness prevention. The SPF SIG implements a five-step process known to promote youth development, reduce risk-taking behaviors, build on assets, and prevent problem behaviors. The five steps are: (1) conduct needs assessments; (2) build state and local capacity; (3) develop a comprehensive strategic plan; (4) implement evidence-based prevention policies, programs and practices; and (5) monitor and evaluate program effectiveness, sustaining what has worked well. These grants will allow the programs to provide leadership, technical support and monitoring to ensure that participating communities are successful. The success of the grants will be measured by specific measurable outcomes, among them: abstinence from drug use and alcohol abuse, reduction in substance abuse-related crime, attainment of employment or enrollment in school, increased stability in family and living conditions, increased access to services, and increased social connectedness. In Arizona, the Arizona Governor's Office for Children, Youth and Families, in partnership with other state agencies, including the Department of Health Services, will develop a comprehensive, integrated statewide substance abuse Arizona Strategic Prevention Framework resulting in data-driven, community-based prevention activities for Arizona's highest risk youth and families. | ||

| Chicanos por la Causa (CPLC) is submitting a Youth In Transition proposal for a Cooperative Agreement for Phases I and II to further develop, refine, and evaluate its substance abuse early prevention/intervention curriculum for Hispanic youth ages 16-24. The curriculum, Corazon de Aztlan, is based on the model program Communities That Care includes components specifically tailored for Hispanic youth. The project will include collaboration with key employers, schools, the University of Arizona South Campus, Pima Community College, and community organizations including the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. The Communities That Care (CTC) model with added culturally appropriate elements has been tested with Hispanic youth in high schools in Tucson/Pima County in a Substance Abuse/HIV Prevention program funded by SAMHSA, Center for Substance Abuse Prevention. The model will be applied as a prevention and early intervention program for young, primarily Hispanic adults ages 16-24. The target population will include: students in high school transition-to-work programs, young adults ages 18-24 who are in the workplace, including those who are in college with part time employment, full time in the work place, or in employment programs. CPLC will collaborate with community-based organizations including the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. The employer focus will also include those industries that employ large numbers of Hispanic youth, which in Tucson includes the construction trades and the restaurant industry. Other collaborators include the University of Arizona as the Evaluation Team and collaborator, Pima Community College and local high schools. Project results will include: 1) completion of a Phase I program with full documentation and process evaluation of the refinement and evaluation of the curriculum; and 2) completion of a Phase II program with full implementation and evaluation of the model. | ||
