Summary of the project: Adult & Child Health (A&C) Targeted Capacity Expansion proposal supports the organization in becoming an American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) certified substance abuse treatment facility in the Greater Indianapolis area. Indiana ranks 13th in the nation for overdose related deaths while stretched provider ratios continue to leave a gap of thousands of Hoosier women in need of treatment. Within the Greater Indianapolis Metropolitan Area, A&C will expand and enhance its current substance abuse treatment model to include intensive outpatient and low-intensity residential treatment to adult women struggling with substance abuse, including women who are pregnant. A&C will increase access to integrated substance abuse treatment utilizing a strength-based, multi-disciplinary approach targeting low-income women. Adult & Child Health’s approach is designed to provide a supportive environment that will offer intensive and comprehensive treatment throughout the continuum of care. Amount requested: $375,000 per year, 3 years Population to be Served: Low-income adult women, including those who are pregnant. Strategies and Interventions: A&C will enhance intensive outpatient SUD treatment to meet ASAM 2.1 criteria.

Project Goals and Measurable Objectives: 1. Adult & Child Health will implement required policies, procedures, and programming to become certified ASAM 2.1 and 3.1. 2. Adult & Child Health will increase the number of SUD-diagnosed patients engaged in harm-reduction and recovery support services. 3.
