The proposed project, Jacksonville System of Collaborative Care (JSOCC), will establish a scalable and replicable evidence-based Collaborative Care model for implementing Medical-Behavioral Health Homes (M-BHH) to provide communities access to and the capacity to provide medical, mental, behavioral, and transition health services to children and youth at-risk for or experiencing serious emotional disturbances (SEM) and serious mental illness (SMI). The populations to be served by the proposed JSOCC include children and youth (C&Y) from throughout Jacksonville who are screened and identified to be at risk for SED/SMI in the JSOCC network of M-BHHs, and (C&Y) known to be at risk for SED/SMI who are screened and referred into the JSOCC, including C&Y in the child welfare and juvenile justice systems, in Crisis Stabilization Units, in refugee communities, LGBTQIA C&Y, and C&Y incarcerated and opioid using parents. JSOCC strategies and interventions will build on the infrastructure of our current SAMHSA funded Jacksonville System of Care Initiative (JSOCI) to: a) transform the JSOCI network of collaborative care practices into JSOCC M-BHHs using the Center for Integrated Health Solutions framework, b) expand our Collaborative Care model to train additional child health providers in basic and advanced diagnosis, treatment and management of C&Y with SED/SMI, c) expand the network of Pediatric Well Centers that provide M-BHHs for C&Y with complex SED/SMI, and d) integrate new services, e.g., transitional care for youth with SMI and telepsychiatry. Proposal goals include: a) Goal 1. To expand the capacity of the JSOCC to provide the services required to care for C&Y with SED/SMI; b) Goal 2. To expand access to these services, and c) Goal 3. To ensure equity-sustainability of the JSOCC. Goal 1 objectives: a) 1.1. To establish 2 new Medical-Behavioral Health Homes per year that screen 2000 children/year for SED/SMI, for a total of 20,000 children screened and managed by Year 4; b) 1.2 To establish 1 - 2 Pediatric Wellness Centers per year to care for the most complex patients - 25 new patients per physician/year for a total of 250 patients with SED/SMI served by Year 4, c) 1.3. To care for 50 transitional youth/year (ages 18-21) with SMI, total of 200 patients served by Year 4; d) Objective 1.4 To refer 600 children/youth from at-risk populations identified with SED/SMI to JSOCC practices prepared to provide them trauma informed care - 2400 patients by Year 4. Goal 2. Objectives: a) 2.1. To add 3 telepsychiatry practices to the network; b) 2.2. To expand-sustain critical elements of the JSOCC, c) 2.3. To ensure families are involved in the development, implementation and evaluation of all elements of the JSOCC, d) 2.4. To engage C&Y with SED/SMI in all aspects of the JSOCC. Goal 3 objectives: a) 3.1. To integrate SOC principles into the JSOCC, b) 3.2. To enhance the governance structures, c) 3.3 To implement a financing plan, and d) 3.4 To continually improve performance and outcomes.
