View Award Abstract

PROJECT ABSTRACT SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA Under the SAMHSA Treatment Drug Courts Grant (FOA No. TI-19-002), all drug court participants in the Second Judicial District Court (SJDC) will receive a comprehensive evaluation to identify risk and need related to substance use, mental illness, and criminality, as well as identify and treat needs across the entire spectrum of psycho-social conditions that are crucial for long-term success and rehabilitation in accordance with the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) Model. This will be accomplished by expanding the existing drug courts into a track system where participants will engage in treatment and rehabilitation that is specific to their risk and need as determined by a comprehensive evaluation administered by two grant-funded licensed clinical social workers and one licensed alcohol and drug counselor. These tracks will be: (1) high-risk/high-need; (2) high-risk/low-need; (3) low-risk/high-need; and (4) low-risk/low-need. Placing participants in tracks with offenders of similar risk and need, in combination with the targeted treatment, rehabilitation, and life skills development as identified in the comprehensive evaluation will dramatically increase successful outcomes resulting in greater efficacy, reduced recidivism, and less strain on the local and state criminal justice systems. In current form, existing SJDC drug courts treat only for substance use disorders and fail to address the 80% of participants who have mental health disorders and other psychosocial needs co-occurring with their substance use disorders. The target populations to receive services under this grant are criminal offenders at the District Court level located in Washoe County, Nevada, who are diagnosed with a substance use disorder, and whose criminal behavior is catalyzed by that substance use disorder. Washoe County is the second largest county in the state of Nevada and is home to over 460,000 citizens. These grant funds will be used to provide services to 350 new drug court participants each year of the grant period, which includes expanding services to an additional 40 participants each year. There are three primary goals of this project: (1) To implement a new assessment process to assist placement into the most appropriate treatment supervision track to better match needs and prognostic risk of individuals as outlined by the RNR model; (2): To enhance the administration of Drug Court by developing tracks for treatment and supervision per the RNR model; and (3) To expand the continuity of care and the use of evidence-based practices that best meet individual needs by matching medically necessary treatment and support options based on the intensity of risk and need. By September 1st, 2019, two full-time licensed clinical social workers and one full-time licensed alcohol and drug counselor will be hired, trained, and actively administering comprehensive evaluations. By October 1st, 2019, the four-track system will be implemented in accordance with the RNR model. Participants will be receiving highly individualized treatment and life skills development through partnerships with regional community resources.
