The goals of this project are: 1) to strengthen collaborations and develop system of care infrastructure; 2) to provide a broad array of coordinated services to meet children's individualized needs; 3) to implement evidence-based practices (EBP) and to identify emerging practices/interventions that meet the requirements of evidence-based approaches; 4) to support the development of parent/youth participation and organization; and, 5) to develop evaluation mechanisms and processes to document the evolution of system of care infrastructure and outcomes. SOC-C establishes the Metropolitan Interagency Council to address the unique needs of Chicago's large and remarkably diverse communities and to serve as the governance group for the project. This group comprised of parents, youth, and leaders from the community and the child serving agencies will drive the development of Chicago's system of care.

Services are often conducted by staff from the same culture as the family, or in the presence of trained interpreters. The expected outcome of our treatments is enhanced psychological well-being, social functioning and school performance, as well as improved overall adjustment to life in the United States.

Assessing organizational readiness to change and identifying specific agency goals and objectives in regard to organizational change will also take place. An Advisory Council of all key stakeholders will provide community support for the project and provide feedback on training effectiveness. Special care will be taken to address the cultural, racial and ethnic diversity of the communities that will be served. Key questions to be addressed by the evaluation include whether the fidelity of program implementation improves as training continues over time, and whether this improvement is associated with improved client outcome. A major function of the evaluation will be to provide regular feedback to trainers and agency staff on fidelity using both process and outcome measures. The project will enhance the ability of agencies to sustain staff training and improve client outcomes at the conclusion of the project. The Project model will also serve to identify strengths and weakness in providing integrated treatment across a range of substance abuse treatment and community mental health agencies to clients with dual disorders.
