Alliance for Community Wellness ("La Familia") Tri-County Project serving 500 individuals per year with SED, SMI, or COD in Alameda, Stanislaus, and Merced Counties. - The Alliance for Community Wellness (“La Familia”) Tri-County Project will serve 500 unduplicated individuals per year in Alameda, Merced and Stanislaus Counties with evidence-based outpatient, and clinical and recovery support services. Latinx individuals, specifically (a) youth aged 11-18 with Serious Emotional Disturbance (SED) and (b) parents and caregivers with Severe Mental Illness (SMI) or Co-Occurring Disorders (COD) will be the target service population. With nearly 70% of our service population being Latinx, and data revealing that the Latinx population is suffering disproportionately from COVID-19, we cannot deny the need for services among our community members. Based on our current client population, we anticipate that 50% of individuals served will have SED, 25% will have SMI, and 25% will have COD. La Familia and partner First Behavioral Health Urgent Care Center (FBHUCC) will use a case-manager-driven team-approach to patient care and utilize a culturally based framework focusing on building on the natural opportunity factors and on what is healthy within an individual, community, family, or culture to 500 unduplicated individuals in 34 cities plus unincorporated areas annually. Project objectives: 1) Build telehealth infrastructure across six sites, increasing telehealth appointments by 10% with at least 50 appointments from new telehealth access centers; 2) Establish clinical teams at 14 school districts where leadership at 90% of partner districts in CBHC geographic service area receive training in Mental Health First Aid to identify and respond to mental crisis and serve 75% more individuals; 3) Execute MOUs with eight additional school districts or other social service agencies to establish referral pathways and telehealth and campus-based services for youth and caregivers with SMI, SED, or COD, including at least two MOUs concerning crisis beds; 4) Establish two pilot mental health crisis and emergency response teams with coverage at least six hours a day, five days a week; 5) Execute MOUs with two additional agencies to increase referral capacity for crisis beds for youth and caregivers in the geographic regions; 6) 90% of staff at La Familia and partner subgrantee FBHUCC will receive training on health disparities as well as report that they have received services to address their mental health needs; and, 7) 5,400 individuals will be engaged through outreach activities targeted at increasing treatment for individuals with SED, SMI, or COD.
