Statewide Interest:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This project continues to support a statewide need as reflected in the Governor's goals of increasing the percent of youth who remain crime free while in secure detention and ensure zero escape as well as protecting the state's most vulnerable by providing treatment and care to those suffering from mental disorders. It is also consistent with the Governor's recommendations for mental health services for juveniles in residential commitment programs as presented in the 2002-2003 budget. Specifically, the Project will continue to provide an overlay of mental health, psychiatric and crisis assessments in the Orange Detention Facility to youth awaiting court processing or awaiting placement in juvenile justice residential commitment facilities and will reduce escapes and new crimes by juvenile detainees. Measurable outcomes are established and have been met.

Continue to provide an overlay of mental health and substance abuse services, psychiatric services and crisis assessment to the Orange Regional Detention Center. Provide 3.5 masters level or qualified bachelor's level clinicians to perform assessments, crisis counseling, individual/group therapy, substance abuse psychoeducational groups, counseling and staff training. Staff the Center with a licensed psychiatrist or ARNP to provide services 3 hours weekly and provide an on-call counselor so that there is coverage within 24 hours for a crisis assessment.

*  Medication management;

*  Suicide screening and assessment

*  Psycho educational Groups

*  Individual mental health treatment

*  Crisis Intervention/Counseling

*  Substance abuse counseling and psycho educational   groups

*  Assistance with discharge planning

*  Reporting of monthly statistics on number of referrals to mental health counselors; Number of clients triaged (for emergency); number of clients who participated in formal screenings; number of clients admitted to crisis unit;; number of clients placed in specialized detention center mental health unit; number of clients moved out of unit to general population; number of clients seen by psychiatrist and other needed or requested statistics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

95% of Juveniles referred will be assessed within 24 hours. Less than 10% of referred juveniles will be admitted to CCSU Children's Crisis Stabilization Unit and fewer critical incidents will be reported at the Center.
