Santa Fe Recovery Center's Substance Use Disorder Residential Treatment for Pregnant and Postpartum Women Grant - Santa Fe Recovery Center is a public, non-profit, CARF-accredited (Commission for the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities) substance use disorder (SUD) program based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. We propose to provide 3 months of residential SUD treatment, followed by up to 6 months of intensive outpatient treatment, for low-income pregnant and postpartum women and their young children in northern New Mexico. The need for these services is great. NM has one of the highest burdens of SUD in the country, and no facilities in the entire state that provide residential SUD services for women and their children. • In 2015, NM ranked 8th in the nation for rate of drug overdose deaths. • NM has had the highest alcohol-related death rate in the United States since 1997, which is now twice the national rate. • NM has the 3rd highest rate of poverty in the United States and the 2nd highest rate of children living in poverty. Santa Fe Recovery Center will provide the following services on-site to residential clients: 1-to-1 and group therapy sessions; art therapy with PhD or Master’s level art therapists; psycho-educational classes including grief/trauma, stigma, and relapse prevention; overdose prevention/Naloxone distribution for opioid users and family members; parenting classes; case management services; family therapy and education groups; children’s play therapy; and buprenorphine treatment for opioid SUD. Additional services provided offsite or by collaborating community-based organizations include prenatal, obstetric and infant/child medical care; AA and NA meetings; counseling and advocacy for clients who are survivors of sexual assault or domestic violence; family support and advocacy services; and supportive housing services, including rental and utility assistance. Our intensive outpatient programs are offered in both Santa Fe (Santa Fe County) and Espanola (Rio Arriba County), and we will provide services to non-residential family members through these programs, including an outpatient buprenorphine program for family members with opioid SUD. Santa Fe Recovery Center proposes to serve a minimum of 233 women through residential treatment, 174 children (ages birth to 3 years in years 1-2 and up to age 6 in years 3-5 of the grant), and 466 non-residential family members during the grant cycle. Our project will provide a safe and therapeutic environment for women with SUD to begin the recovery process and to promote healthy attachment and bonding between mother and child(ren) in an effort to cease trauma and addiction across multiple generations of New Mexican families.
