Recovery Consultants of Atlanta Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic - Recovery Consultants of Atlanta, Inc. (RCA) proposes an advancement of its Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) to include community-based behavioral health services for underserved children and families in Dekalb and Fulton counties, Georgia including those with chronic health diseases, serious mental illness (SMI), substance use disorder (SUD), and co-occurring disorders (COD). RCA currently provides evidence-based interventions to adults within the service area including primary and preventative care, behavioral health services, peer support, transitional housing, and recovery support services. Through partnerships with Corners Outreach, CBOs and other community locations, RCA will extend evidence-based interventions to where children and families are most comfortable, and services are desperately needed. Within these community-based settings, RCA will provide outreach, engagement, case management, and behavioral health services to metro-Atlanta children and families for 100 individuals in Year 1, 115 in Year 2, 125 in Year 3, and 140 in Year 4 for a total of 480 individuals served during the grant period. The goals of this CCBHC advancement are to: (1) provide children and families with access to a fully integrated care team including case management, primary care, behavioral health care, peer support, and recovery support services; (2) continue to operate the CCBHC program in compliance with all certification criteria; (3) provide physical health care through screening, monitoring, and follow-up of key health indicators to decrease health risks and improve physical health outcomes of the population of focus; (4) provide behavioral health screening, assessment, diagnosis, and develop recovery-oriented treatment plans for behavioral health, SUD, and COD; and (5) demonstrate consistent, person and family-centered approach in delivery of behavioral health and primary care services.
