FAMILY ACHIEVEMENT IN RECOVERY (FAIR) AT PAR VILLAGE - The Family Achievement in Recovery (FAIR) at PAR Village project is seeking SAMHSA funding to provide state of-the-art gender-specific, culturally and linguistically relevant residential treatment (Tx) services for 120 substance abusing pregnant, postpartum women (PPW) and 60 of their children focused on achieving sustained recovery characterized by: abstinence from drugs of abuse; family stability; stable mental and physical health; positive child development; and healthy behaviors. The project is an initiative of Operation PAR, Inc., the largest comprehensive Tx provider in West Central Florida. Over 20 years ago, Operation PAR's President & Chief Executive Officer Nancy Hamilton spearheaded national efforts to develop evidence-based, gender-specific Tx for PPW with the opening of PAR Village. The FAIR project will provide capacity expansion of existing residential Tx services for PPW and their children by: (1) increasing the number of beds; (2) increasing the Tx engagement rate; (3) increasing the Tx retention rate; and (4) utilizing competency-based criteria for Tx completion. The project will enroll female veterans, women of color, women involved with the child welfare system, and women with HIV. The goals are to: increase the percentage of women bringing their children into Tx to 33%.; increase the percentage of pregnant women enrolling in Tx during first trimester from 5% to 20%; reduce the negative impact of maternal SA on infants and children; increase Tx completion rates from 54% to 65% by addressing HIV, COD, and trauma; improve family functioning, economic stability and quality of life; and sustain recovery through support and self-sufficiency.
