View Award Description

Alcohol and Drug Advocacy for Men (The ADAM Project) - Behavioral Health Services, Inc. (BHS)’s substance use and mental health disorders treatment programs have provided services to people living with, or at the highest risk for HIV since the beginning of the epidemic in Los Angeles. In partnership with the LGBTQ Center Long Beach, BHS will provide substance use disorders (SUD) counseling and case management services to young men who have sex with men (YMSM) (18-29) of color in Long Beach Targeted street and social media outreach, education and engagement will maximize their access. to the project's services. The ADAM Project's SUD counseling and case management services will incorporate risk reduction related to HIV and viral Hepatitis, and linkage to appropriate medical care and social services to ensure participants have access to the professional services and peer support to decrease/eliminate their use of drugs and alcohol or their potential to contract/transmit HIV in sexual and/or drug using situations. The ADAM Project’s outreach staff will screen at least 300 young adult MSM in the Long Beach area, enrolling at least 100 participants each year into project services, or 500 through the programs five years. All participants will be encouraged to test for HIV and viral Hepatitis, unless they are already aware of a positive status, and as indicated by testing, linked to (1) medical care through Ryan White funded providers, (2) Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) testing, (3) Pre- or Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP or PrEP). Participants will be assessed to determine eligibility for benefits to support costs for SUD, HIV and/or hepatitis treatment, including Drug Medi-Cal program (California's distribution of Medicaid resources). One of the ADAM Project’s case managers will be a certified substance abuse counselor with experience in substance abuse and HIV prevention counseling. Case managers will provide SUD counseling through the implementation of Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) and Comprehensive Risk Counseling and Services (CRCS), an evidence-based practice which has been adapted/evaluated for use with HIV prevention counseling in both seropositive and high risk negative individuals, as well as for reducing or eliminating the use of drugs and/or alcohol. Medical Detoxification (ASAM level III.7), Medication-Assisted Treatment (I.0) for opioid use disorder and alcohol dependence, and residential SUD treatment (III.3) is available through BHS' Redgate Memorial Recovery Center and BHS’ medical clinic in Hawthorne through leveraged funds at no cost to this project or to participants. ASAM criterion is used to determine the appropriate level of care. Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) was chosen for its adaptability and client-centered qualities throughout the counseling relationship. MET encourages a “no wrong door” approach to treatment planning and goal/action step planning for each participant, ensuring maximum buy-in from individual participants throughout their treatment process.
