OUTPATIENT TST TRAUMA TREATMENT - THE LIFELINE CENTER FOR CHILD DEVELOPMENT, INC. WILL EXPAND ITS CAPACITY THROUGH THE ADDITION OF OUTPATIENT TRAUMA SERVICES FOR 630 YOUTH, AGES 5 TO 17 YEARS, IN QUEENS, NY. CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITH EMOTIONAL/BEHAVIORAL DYSREGULATION AS A RESULT OF PANDEMIC-RELATED AND COMPLEX TRAUMA WILL PARTICIPATE IN TRAUMA SYSTEMS THERAPY DELIVERED VIA CLINIC AND HOME-BASED SERVICES TO INCREASE THEIR SAFETY, HELP THEM COPE WITH TRAUMATIC STRESS, AND IMPROVE THEIR EMOTIONAL WELLBEING. THE LIFELINE CENTER WILL FOCUS OUTPATIENT TRAUMA SERVICES ON CHILDREN AND YOUTH LIVING IN SOME OF THE MOST DIVERSE AND UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES IN QUEENS, NY. TWO-THIRDS OF JAMAICA/HOLLIS RESIDENTS IDENTIFY AS BLACK (66%), HALF OF CORONA/ELMHURST IDENTIFY AS LATINO (51%), AND MORE THAN HALF OF FLUSHING WHITESTONE RESIDENTS IDENTIFY AS ASIAN (54%). BETWEEN 42% AND 63% OF RESIDENTS IN THESE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE IMMIGRANTS, AND UP TO HALF HAVE LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY. AS A RESULT, THESE NEIGHBORHOODS BORE THE BRUNT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC IN NYC, WITH INFECTION, MORBIDITY, AND MORTALITY RATES FAR EXCEEDING OTHER NYC AND US REGIONS. MANY CHILDREN AND YOUTH IN THESE NEIGHBORHOODS CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE TRAUMATIC STRESS RELATED TO THE PANDEMIC, INCLUDING A HIGH RATE OF LOSS OF A PARENT OR LOVED ONE. THEY EXPERIENCE HIGH LEVELS OF ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, SUICIDAL IDEATION OR BEHAVIOR, HYPERACTIVITY, AGGRESSIVENESS, WITHDRAWAL, INCLUDING FROM SCHOOL, AND RISK FOR DROP-OUT. SCHOOLS ARE UNDER-RESOURCED TO ADDRESS STUDENTS’ MENTAL HEALTH AND OUTPATIENT CLINICS HAVE LONG WAITLISTS. TO HELP CLOSE THE SERVICE GAP AND MAKE MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES AVAILABLE TO MORE UNDERSERVED CHILDREN AND FAMILIES SUFFERING FROM THE TRAUMATIC FALLOUT OF THE PANDEMIC, THE LIFELINE CENTER WILL EXPAND ITS CURRENT CAPACITY THROUGH THE ADDITION OF AN OUTPATIENT AND HOME-BASED TREATMENT COMPONENT, UTILIZING TRAUMA SYSTEMS THERAPY (TST). TST PROVIDES AN ORGANIZATIONAL FRAMEWORK AND SET OF INTERVENTIONS TO IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH WHOSE LEVEL OF EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL DYSREGULATION PUTS THEM AT HIGH RISK FOR SHORT- AND LONG-TERM HARM. FOR THE PURPOSE OF TST IMPLEMENTATION, WE WILL CONTRACT THE NYU SCHOOL OF MEDICINE CENTER FOR CHILD WELFARE PRACTICE INNOVATION (CCWPI), A NCTSI-II TREATMENT AND SERVICE ADAPTATION CENTER LED BY DR. GLENN SAXE, THE DEVELOPER OF TST. THE LIFELINE CENTER WILL SERVE 70 CHILDREN IN YEAR 1, AND 140 IN EACH OF YEARS 2-5, FOR A TOTAL OF 630 CHILDREN AND YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES. WE WILL ALSO IMPLEMENT AN EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF LOCAL SCHOOLS TO SUPPORT CHILDREN WITH TRAUMA, USING THE CCWPI ‘NEVER LOOK AWAY’ ANIMATED TRAINING SERIES. AS A RESULT OF EXTENSIVE STAFF TRAINING, SUPERVISION, AND IMPLEMENTING TST WITH FIDELITY, THE LIFELINE CENTER ANTICIPATES ACHIEVING THE FOLLOWING GOALS AND ASSOCIATED MEASUREABLE OBJECTIVES: INCREASED CAPACITY TO PROVIDE CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITH EVIDENCE-BASED TRAUMA-INFORMED CLINICAL AND SUPPORT SERVICES; HIGH RETENTION IN TST SERVICES AND 50% COMPLETION RATE; 80% OF CHILDREN SHOW IMPROVED SYMPTOMATOLOGY, EMOTION REGULATION, AND ENVIRONMENTAL STABILITY; 90% OF FAMILIES REPORT HIGH SATISFACTION WITH TST SERVICES AND OUTCOMES; AND 150 SCHOOL STAFF HAVE PARTICIPATED IN TRAUMA TRAINING, AND 90% OF PARTICIPANTS SHOW INCREASED CAPACITY TO IDENTIFY AND RESPOND TO CHILDREN’S TRAUMATIC STRESS.

WITH SAMHSA GRANT FUNDING, THE PPW PROGRAM IS POISED TO STABILIZE AND GROW TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE REGION. GOALS OF THE PROJECT ARE TO: (1) IMPROVE THE MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN INVOLVED IN THE PROGRAM, AND REDUCE INFANT AND MATERNAL MORTALITY AMONG POPULATIONS WITH HIGH NEEDS; (2) REDUCE THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF SUD ON PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, (3) DECREASE DISRUPTION OF FAMILY UNITS THROUGH IMPROVED ACCESS AND RETENTION IN TREATMENT. IN EACH YEAR OF THE PROJECT, WE WILL ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING MEASURABLE OUTCOMES: (1) 90% OF PREGNANT WOMEN IN CARE WILL DELIVER FULL-TERM BABIES, AND 90% WILL DELIVER HEALTHY BIRTH-WEIGHT BABIES; (2) 80% OF CHILDREN WILL DEMONSTRATE PROGRESS ON AGE APPROPRIATE DEVELOPMENT IN SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL, GROSS MOTOR, FINE MOTOR, LANGUAGE, AND COGNITIVE SKILLS; (3) INCREASE OUTREACH TO MARGINALIZED GROUPS BY CONDUCTING A MINIMUM OF ONE PRESENTATION QUARTERLY TO COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS SERVING PEOPLE OF COLOR, LGBTQI+, AND TRIBAL MEMBERS; (4) 75% OF WOMEN WHO COMPLETE TREATMENT WILL ABSTAIN FROM SUBSTANCE USE 90 DAYS FOLLOWING DISCHARGE FROM RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM; (5) 100% OF PARTICIPANTS WITH OUD WILL BE OFFERED ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE HARM REDUCTION SUPPLIES AND OVERDOSE PREVENTION EDUCATION; (6) 80% OF FAMILIES WILL DEMONSTRATE IMPROVED PARENTING AND INCREASED FAMILY FUNCTIONING; (7) 90% OF WOMEN WHO COMPLETE RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT WILL TRANSITION TO OUTPATIENT OR RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY; AND (8) 75% OF THE WOMEN WILL HAVE OR ESTABLISH FAMILY UNIFICATION OR UNIFICATION PLANS WITH ONE OR MORE CHILDREN BY DISCHARGE FROM RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT. WE WILL ACHIEVE THESE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES BY PROVIDING EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT SERVICES, CASE MANAGEMENT, HARM REDUCTION, AND RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES, BOTH DIRECTLY AND THROUGH ESTABLISHED PARTNERSHIPS AND REFERRAL AGREEMENTS WITH QUALIFIED COMMUNITY AGENCIES SERVING THE POPULATION OF FOCUS. INCREASED OUTREACH TO MARGINALIZED AND HIGH NEEDS COMMUNITIES WILL START IMMEDIATELY UPON AWARD AND CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT. WITH THE RECENT CLOSURE OF THE PPW PROGRAM IN COWLITZ COUNTY TO OUR IMMEDIATE NORTH, WE ANTICIPATE STRONG DEMAND FOR SERVICES. UNDER THIS GRANT, WE ANTICIPATE SERVING AT LEAST 40 PREGNANT AND POSTPARTUM WOMEN IN THE FIRST YEAR, AND 45 WOMEN IN YEARS TWO THROUGH FIVE, FOR A TOTAL OF 220 UNDUPLICATED WOMEN OVER THE COURSE OF THE 5-YEAR PROJECT.

RAYMOND HIGH SCHOOL PREVENTION PROJECT - RAYMOND HIGH SCHOOL PREVENTION PROJECT PRIORITIZES SUBSTANCE MISUSE PREVENTION STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES ON THE SCHOOL-AGED YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES AT THE RAYMOND SCHOOL DISTRICT. THE RAYMOND SCHOOL DISTRICT IS IDENTIFIED IN A ‘HIGH PRIORITY’ AREA AND SERVES 500 YOUTH BETWEEN THE AGES OF 5 AND 18 YEARS. THE COMBINED RACIAL AND ETHNIC REPRESENTATION WITHIN THE DISTRICT INCLUDE 60% WHITE (NON-HISPANIC), 1% NATIVE, 2% ASIAN, 8% IDENTIFIED AS TWO OR MORE RACES, AND 28% IDENTIFIED AS HISPANIC/LATINO IN ETHNICITY—61% OF ALL STUDENTS ARE CLASSIFIED AS LOW-INCOME. CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM IS AT 27% AND AN ARTIFACT OF GEOGRAPHIC ISOLATION AND LIMITED MOBILITY. (OSPI, 2024.) A THOROUGH REVIEW OF CURRENT AND HISTORICAL SUBSTANCE MISUSE DATA CLEARLY INDICATES A NEAR EQUAL PREFERENCE FOR ALCOHOL (56%) AND MARIJUANA (41%) BY GRADE 12. MARIJUANA HAS QUICKLY GAINED IN POPULARITY AMONG OUR YOUTH, MOST LIKELY DUE TO THE NATIONAL PUSH TOWARD DECRIMINALIZATION OF RECREATIONAL USE WHICH, FOR WASHINGTON, TOOK PLACE IN 2011. CURRENT (WITHIN THE PAST 30-DAYS) MARIJUANA USE AMONG THE 12TH GRADE COHORTS HAS REMAINED CONSISTENT WITH ALCOHOL AT BETWEEN 23% TO 28% EACH. (HYS, 2010-2021). THE 2021 HEALTHY YOUTH SURVEY DATA GOES ON TO SHOWS THAT 15% OF 6TH GRADE, 35% OF 8TH GRADE, 38% OF 10TH GRADE AND 52% OF 12TH GRADE STUDENTS REPORT THAT ALCOHOL IS EASY TO GET. ADDITIONALLY, 33% OF 8TH GRADERS SAY THEY GET ALCOHOL AT HOME EITHER WITH OR WITHOUT PERMISSION, 60% OF 10TH GRADERS SAY THEY GAVE MONEY TO SOMEONE TO PURCHASE ALCOHOL FOR THEM, AND 55% OF 12TH GRADERS SAY THEY GOT ALCOHOL FROM FRIENDS AT A PARTY. THE RATE OF SUBSTANCE MISUSE AMONG STUDENTS IS MOST LIKELY DRIVEN BY THE HIGH PERCENTAGE OF PACIFIC COUNTY YOUTH REPORTING HAVING FELT SAD OR HOPELESS (41%), SERIOUSLY CONSIDERED SUICIDE (22%), OR ATTEMPTED SUICIDE (4%) IN 2021. THESE ARE THE HIGHEST RATES EVER RECORDED BY THE HYS. THE AIM OF RAYMOND HIGH SCHOOL PREVENTION PROJECT IS TO EXPAND EXISTING PREVENTION INFRASTRUCTURE BUILT OVER THE PAST 13 YEARS 500 ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE, AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING: REDUCE YOUTH AND ADULT SUBSTANCE MISUSE AND RELATED PROBLEMS. OBJECTIVE [PREVENTION PRIORITY] 1: REDUCE 30-DAY ALCOHOL USE AMONG STUDENTS FROM THE CURRENT 2018 BASELINE OF 23% TO 14% (-40%) BY 2029 AS MEASURED BY THE HEALTHY YOUTH SURVEY. (TO BE ADMINISTERED IN 2025, 2027, AND 2029.) OBJECTIVE [PREVENTION PRIORITY] 2: REDUCE 30-DAY MARIJUANA USE AMONG STUDENTS FROM THE CURRENT 2018 BASELINE OF 20% TO 14% (-30%) BY 2029 AS MEASURED BY THE HEALTHY YOUTH SURVEY. (TO BE ADMINISTERED IN 2025, 2027, AND 2029.) OBJECTIVE [PREVENTION PRIORITY] 3: INCREASE PERCEIVED PARENTAL DISAPPROVAL OF MARIJUANA USE AMONG STUDENTS FROM THE CURRENT 2021 BASELINE OF 79% TO 90% (+14%) BY 2029 AS MEASURED BY THE HEALTHY YOUTH SURVEY. (TO BE ADMINISTERED IN 2025, 2027, AND 2029.) OBJECTIVE 4: INCREASE COMMUNITY AWARENESS OF ALCOHOL, MARIJUANA, AND OPIOID USE BY 40% AS MEASURED BY THE NORTH PACIFIC COUNTY COMMUNITY SURVEY. (BASELINE BY DECEMBER 31, 2024.) OBJECTIVE 5: DECREASE COMMUNITY ATTITUDES FAVORABLE TO ALCOHOL, MARIJUANA, AND OPIOID USE BY 20% BY 2029 AS MEASURED BY NORTH PACIFIC COUNTY COMMUNITY SURVEY.

AARON'S PLACE: EXCHANGE (APEX) TEEN PROGRAM: A MENTAL HEALTH AND ADDICTION PREVENTION PROGRAM FOR TEENS WHO ARE IMPACTED BY FAMILY SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER. - AARON'S PLACE: EXCHANGE (APEX) TEEN PROGRAM IS A FREE YEAR-LONG THERAPEUTIC ENGAGEMENT WITH YOUTH AGES 13-17 AND THEIR FAMILIES WHERE THE EFFECTS OF FAMILY SUBSTANCE MISUSE/ADDICTION ARE ADDRESSED THROUGH FUN AFTER-SCHOOL ACTIVITIES COMBINED WITH EDUCATION AND THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTIONS DESIGNED TO TEACH YOUTH A VARIETY OF PROBLEM SOLVING AND SELF-CARE STRATEGIES. THIS PROGRAM IS AN EXPANSION OF THE EXISTING CAMP MARIPOSA: AARON'S PLACE PROGRAM, WHICH HAS SERVED YOUTH AGES 9-12 IN INDIANAPOLIS SINCE 2020. APEX INCLUDES MONTHLY AFTER SCHOOL SESSIONS IN INDIANAPOLIS, IN. THIS PROGRAM WILL ENGAGE 20-30 TEENS EACH YEAR OF OPERATION. PARTICIPANTS COME FROM ALL DEMOGRAPHIC GROUPS BUT CONSTITUTE A MIX OF RACIAL/ETHNIC GROUPS. MOST PARTICIPANTS WILL BE EXPECTED TO QUALIFY FOR FREE OR REDUCED-PRICE LUNCH AT SCHOOL. AT APEX, TEENS ARE PROVIDED A SAFE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK FREELY AND OPENLY ABOUT SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER, CONNECT WITH OTHERS IN SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCES, AND AVOID STIGMATIZATION. CURRICULA INCLUDES DEVELOPMENT OF PROTECTIVE FACTORS INCLUDING PERSONAL RESILIENCE, SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS, POSITIVE SELF-IMAGE, EXHIBITING SELF-CONTROL, MAINTAINING POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS, AND MAKING DECISIONS THAT LEAD TO A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. NATIONAL GUIDELINES ENCOURAGE THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROTECTIVE FACTORS TO LESSEN THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF ACES INCLUDING FAMILY SUBSTANCE MISUSE. PROGRAMMING INCLUDES DELIVERY OF TRAUMA SENSITIVE ACTIVITIES AND THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTIONS DESIGNED TO BUILD RESILIENCY, MODEL HEALTHY ADULT-CHILD INTERACTIONS THROUGH A MENTORSHIP COMPONENT, SUPPORT PARTICIPANTS TO BUILD A PEER NETWORK, AND REDUCE ISOLATION. UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF THE CLINICAL DIRECTOR (OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY) AND THE GROUP FACILITATOR (LCSW), CURRICULUM FOCUSES ON COPING STRATEGIES AND MINDFULNESS ACTIVITIES.

CAMP MARIPOSA AND YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH - CM-SW MENTORS CHILDREN IMPACTED BY THE SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER OF A LOVED ONE. COMMUNITY PROJECT FUNDING WILL HELP 36 KIDS ATTEND THIS INNOVATIVE YEAR-ROUND CAMPING PROGRAM PROVEN TO BREAK THE INTERGENERATIONAL CYCLE OF ADDICTION. CM-SW SERVES CHILDREN LIKE LACEY WHO LOST HER DAD TO A DRUG OVERDOSE. LACEY WAS SHUNNED BY KIDS AT SCHOOL AFTER HER STORY GOT OUT. AT CAMP JUST THREE WEEKS LATER, LACEY TOLD HER STORY AT CAMPFIRE. EVERYONE LISTENED, REACHED OUT AND EMBRACED HER. SHE FOUND FRIENDSHIP, SAFETY, AND A PLACE TO BEGIN HEALING. CM-SW IS A RESEARCH-BASED NATIONAL MODEL DEVELOPED BY ELUNA NETWORK AND STAFFED BY TRAINED MENTORS AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. FOR MANY KIDS, IT’S THE FIRST TIME THEY TALK ABOUT THEIR FAMILY MEMBER’S ADDICTION AND CONNECT WITH OTHERS LIKE THEMSELVES. THEY SHARE FEELINGS AND ASK QUESTIONS LIKE, “WHY DOES MY DAD LIKE ALCOHOL MORE THAN ME?” THEY LEARN IT ISN’T THEIR FAULT AND—MOST IMPORTANT—THEY CAN MAKE DIFFERENT CHOICES AS THEY GROW UP. WASHINGTON HAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST RATES OF MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS IN THE COUNTRY. ADDITIONAL YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ARE NEEDED: A LOCAL SCHOOL REPORTED MORE THAN 60% OF THEIR STUDENTS HAVE HIGH ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES (ACE) SCORES, INDICATING HIGHER RISK FOR FUTURE SUBSTANCE USE PROBLEMS, MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS, AND PHYSICAL CONDITIONS. ACCESS TO CARE IS LIMITED. PER MENTAL HEALTH AMERICA, WASHINGTON RANKED 27TH IN MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES FOR YOUTH. CLEARLY THE NEED IS GREAT AND CONTINUES TO GROW AS SERVICES LAG, ACCESS BECOMES NON-EXISTENT, AND ADDING THE LIMITS COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS CAUSED, PROGRAMS LIKE CAMP MARIPOSA PROVIDE A HUGE BENEFIT TO CHILDREN IN NEED. CAMP MARIPOSA – SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON IS A PROJECT THAT BENEFITS THE COMMUNITY BY PREVENTING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS IN CHILDREN EXPOSED TO THEM IN THEM HOME ENVIRONMENTS. MORE THAN 33% OF THESE KIDS HAVE A HISTORY OF MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. IN SW WASHINGTON, ALMOST 61% HAVE EXPERIENCED LOSS OR GRIEF; ALMOST HALF HAVE LOST A PARENT DUE TO DEATH OR SEPARATION. THE 2016 "HEALTHY YOUTH SURVEY" FOUND THAT 20% OF 10TH GRADE STUDENTS DRINK ALCOHOL AND 17% USE MARIJUANA. THESE ARE SOME OF OUR COMMUNITY'S MOST VULNERABLE KIDS, AND CAMP MARIPOSA IS CHANGING THEIR LIVES. A 2019 STUDY BY LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY FOUND THAT AMONG ALL CAMP MARIPOSAS ACROSS THE US, ALMOST 93% OF ATTENDEES STATED THEY LEARNED THINGS AT CAMP THAT CAN HELP THEM WHEN THEY'RE AT HOME, AND 95% SAID THERE ARE ADULTS THEY TRUST AT CAMP. MOST IMPORTANTLY, 93% SAY THEY KNOW THEY WILL NOT BECOME ADDICTED TO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER WHO IS. THAT IS WHY CAMP MARIPOSA IS IMPORTANT.
