THE GEOGRAPHIC CATCHMENT AREA IS SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN, FOCUSED ON MILWAUKEE COUNTY.

META HOUSE'S PROGRAMS ARE WELCOMING TO TRANSGENDER CLIENTS, ALTHOUGH TYPICALLY TRANSGENDER WOMEN MAKE UP ONLY ABOUT 1% OF OUR CLIENT POPULATION. FAMILIES SERVED BY MORE WILL BE LOW-INCOME (90% OF CLIENTS HAVE INCOMES BELOW THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL) AND HAVE MULTIPLE SPECIAL NEEDS IN ADDITION TO THEIR OPIOID USE DISORDERS AND CO-OCCURRING MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS, SUCH AS OTHER SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, UNSTABLE HOUSING, TRAUMA HISTORIES, LOW LITERACY, AND EMPLOYABILITY CONCERNS. A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF WOMEN SERVED WILL BE PARENTING MINOR CHILDREN. MOST WILL BE INVOLVED IN MULTIPLE SYSTEMS, INCLUDING CHILD WELFARE, TANF, AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE. META HOUSE, A TREATMENT PROVIDER WITH OVER 50 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE SERVING THE POPULATION OF FOCUS, WILL INTEGRATE MOUD INTO SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT FOR WOMEN WITH OPIOID USE DISORDERS AND CO-OCCURRING MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS, PROVIDE PEER AND RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES, AND IMPLEMENT OVERDOSE PREVENTION STRATEGIES FOR WOMEN ACROSS META HOUSE'S CONTINUUM OF CARE. THE MORE PROGRAM WILL INTEGRATE THE FOLLOWING EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES INTO OUR CONTINUUM OF CARE TO SUPPORT RECOVERY FOR WOMEN WITH OPIOID USE DISORDERS: 1) MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING FOR TREATING OPIOID USE DISORDERS, SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, AND CO-OCCURRING MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS; 2) SEEKING SAFETY FOR TREATING OPIOID USE DISORDERS/SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS AND TRAUMA; 3) PEER RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES FOR RECOVERY SUPPORT AND ENGAGEMENT; AND 4) NALOXONE AND FENTANYL TEST STRIP DISTRIBUTION FOR HARM REDUCTION AND OVERDOSE PREVENTION.

IN COLLABORATION WITH IMPACT, THE EXPERIENCED EXTERNAL EVALUATOR FOR THE PROJECT, A PROGRAM EVALUATION WILL BE IMPLEMENTED THAT WILL MEASURE HOW THE PROJECT MEETS ALL PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL PROCESS EVALUATION QUESTIONS AND WILL COLLECT AND REPORT DATA ON ALL REQUIRED PERFORMANCE MEASURES. GPRA AND LOCAL EVALUATION DATA WILL BE COLLECTED IN INTERVIEWS AT INTAKE, DISCHARGE, 6 MONTHS POST-INTAKE, AND 12 MONTHS POST-INTAKE.

COMMUNITY PROJECT FUNDING/CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING - CONSTRUCTION - META HOUSE SEEKS SUPPORT FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO CONSTRUCT A NEW RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT FACILITY THAT WILL ALLOW THE NONPROFIT AGENCY TO PROVIDE FAMILY-CENTERED SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER (SUD) TREATMENT TO WOMEN ACROSS THE STATE OF WISCONSIN. OVER THE COURSE OF ITS 60-YEAR HISTORY, META HOUSE HAS ESTABLISHED ITSELF AS A TRAILBLAZING PRESENCE IN SUD TREATMENT FOR WOMEN, PARTICULARLY MEDICAID-ELIGIBLE WOMEN, AND EVEN MORE SPECIFICALLY, WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR IMMEDIATELY POSTPARTUM. ITS GENDER SPECIFIC AND FAMILY-CENTERED APPROACH HAS ENABLED META HOUSE TO ACHIEVE OUTSTANDING OUTCOMES FOR ITS CLIENTS, SAVING COUNTLESS LIVES, AND BREAK THE GENERATIONAL CYCLE OF ADDICTION FOR THOUSANDS OF FAMILIES. THE DEMAND FOR SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT SERVICES HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER; DRUG-RELATED OVERDOSE DEATHS HAVE SKYROCKETED IN RECENT YEARS. META HOUSE’S CURRENT FACILITIES ARE LICENSED FOR 35 ADULT RESIDENTIAL BEDS AND PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS OFTEN WAIT MONTHS TO GET INTO TREATMENT. META HOUSE WISHES TO EXPAND ITS BED CAPACITY, BUT ITS CURRENT FACILITIES SIMPLY DO NOT PROVIDE THE SPACE TO ACCOMMODATE AN EXPANSION. META HOUSE RESPECTFULLY SEEKS SUPPORT FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO CONSTRUCT A NEW RESIDENTIAL SUD TREATMENT FACILITY THAT WILL ALLOW IT TO OVER DOUBLE ITS PROGRAM CAPACITY, ADDING 65 ADDITIONAL TREATMENT BEDS INTO THE REGION FOR A TOTAL OF 100 TREATMENT BEDS. THROUGH THIS PROJECT, META HOUSE WILL ALSO INCREASE THE SCOPE OF ON-SITE SUPPORTIVE SERVICES FOR THE CLIENTS IT SERVES, IMPROVING ACCESS TO MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT AND PRIMARY HEALTH CARE. META HOUSE'S NEW AND EXPANDED TREATMENT CAMPUS WILL ALSO INCORPORATE SPACES TO FOSTER COLLABORATION BETWEEN AGENCIES AND SYSTEM PARTNERS, INCLUDING CHILD WELFARE AND DRUG TREATMENT COURTS. FINALLY, ALSO CONTEMPLATED IN THIS SCOPE OF WORK, META HOUSE WILL EXPAND THE AGENCY'S SOUGHT-AFTER INTERNSHIP PROGRAM, THEREBY GROWING THE PIPELINE OF CREDENTIALED SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER AND MENT AL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS.
