| Posted in PIC News & Updates |
Person-centered care is an effective way to help consumers with mental illness, substance abuse related disorders, and/or development disabilities meet their own personal goals. A person-centered approach is associated with improvements in the lives of consumers. “Individualizing treatment services has been shown to improve outcomes” (Robert Drake, Ph.D., Dartmouth University as presented to the Committee on the Quality of Health Care in America, in Crossing the Quality Chasm, Institute of Medicine, 2001). In addition, consumers identify a person-centered approach as a critical component of their care. According to the President’s New Freedom Commission on Mental Health, “Nearly every consumer …expressed the need to fully participate in his or her plan for recovery.” (New Freedom Commission, 2003).

| Posted in PIC News & Updates |
Motivational Counseling is a person-centered form of counseling and has its roots in the work of Carl Rogers in the late 1950s. Referred to as the existential-humanistic tradition, the goal of this counseling philosophy is to help the client remove barriers that limit his/her ability to live a meaningful life. Rogers published Client-Centered Therapy in 1951 but continued to develop his theories, eventually referring to applications of his theories as “person-centered” approaches.| December 14th, 2009 |

|
| Posted in MH EBP |
The National Institute of Mental Health estimates that approximately 6% of the U.S. population has severe mental illness (SMI). For North Carolina, that percentage translates to approximately 200,000 people who suffer from severe psychiatric disorders. Research shows that without effective treatment, people with SMI are at greater risk than the general population for suicide, incarceration, acute hospitalization, homelessness, joblessness, substance abuse, and medical problems such as obesity and diabetes. Yet, with effective treatment, recovery is possible for people with SMI.| December 7th, 2009 |

| Robeson County Bridges for Families Program |
|
Linking NCPIC Practices to Create a Model for a Rural Community One example of this approach, used to expand services in a rural community through training in and adoption of evidence-based treatment models, is the Robeson County Bridges for Families program (RCBF). Funded by a Regional Partnership Grant from the United States Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Children and Families, the primary clients served by the program are substance-involved families referred from the Robeson County Department of Social Services (DSS) or Family Drug Treatment Court (FDTC) and/or from a range of parenting support, mental health, and substance abuse treatment services. In addition to the necessary legal, substance abuse, and mental health services for client families, the RCBF program provides or arranges for gender-specific and family-focused wrap-around services that address related issues such as parenting skills, safety and domestic violence, poverty, transportation, social support, and child care. Since its inception in Fall 2008, the program has added a family drug treatment court; has expanded treatment, including enhanced residential care and transitional housing for families; and has put into operation four new evidence-based substance abuse services: Matrix Model, Seeking Safety, Strengthening Families, and Trauma Focused–Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These evidence-based treatment/prevention models were recommended for full adoption by the NCPIC in 2006-2007. For more information about the evidence-based practices being used by Bridges click below.

The research to practice translation gap is not unique to any one field of practice. Once providers have some awareness of evidence-based practices and understand the value of adding new treatment models to their programs, the key concerns of administrators regarding funding for training and support for clinical supervision in the new models can be addressed through grant funded demonstration programs which are closely evaluated to allow for future replication.| September 24th, 2009 |

| SA#2: Strengthening Families Program (SFP) |

A nationally recognized program, SFP has been shown effective by numerous independent research studies and has been implemented worldwide. It was developed in the late 1980s by Karol Kumpfer, Ph.D. through a research grant funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse. There are now several versions of the original program that accommodate the needs of different age groups and at risk populations.
The Strengthening Families Program
(SFP) is a parenting and family strengthening program for high risk families. It combines science-based (1) parenting-skill training, (2) child life-skill building, and (3) family lifeskill education into a program that improves the child’s social/life skills and family functioning and protects the children from the long-term risks of drug abuse.

| Kana Enomoto Challenges North Carolina |
|
to Join SAMHSA in Promoting Trauma-Informed Care
To address this critical issue, the federal agency supports the development of trauma-informed systems of care for every community. To illustrate how a trauma-informed system would operate, Ms. Enomoto presented a fictitious case study of services in two cities. She noted that the most effective outcomes for people are achieved when the operating principles for the services are trauma-focused, person-centered, and recovery-oriented. SAMHSA is committed to elevating the visibility of the issue and providing helpful tools for states and communities to promote recovery and healing for trauma survivors. It is working hard to disseminate information about delivering trauma services and setting up demonstration projects that seek new ways to create trauma-informed systems. In the afternoon, the Acting Deputy Director spent time one-on-one with the members of the NCPIC Mental Health and Substance Abuse Subcommittees. The members in attendance discussed with Ms. Enomoto their experiences with the implementation of evidence-based practices. Ms. Enomoto congratulated the members for being leaders that embrace and value evidence-based practices to improve consumer services. She noted that North Carolina was indeed a national leader in working to advance the use of best practices and programs. She encouraged the NCPIC members to focus on the concept that the best research evidence is also backed by clinical expertise, patient value, and cultural considerations. The NCPIC members were challenged and invigorated by the encouragement provided by Ms. Enomoto and look forward to new SAMHSA initiatives in this area.

| MH#2: Integrated Dual Disorders Treatment (IDDT) |
|
The co-occurrence of these disorders makes it more difficult for mentally ill clients to maintain stable recovery from their mental illness. They often have trouble managing family relationships, obtaining stable employment, and are more likely than people with mental illness only to become involved in the criminal justice system. Unfortunately, only 12% of people with co-existing disorders receive interventions for both disorders. |

As reported in 2006, the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions indicated that individuals with mental illness diagnoses have a greater prevalence of alcohol and drug disorders than the general public.| August 20th, 2009 |

|
CM is based on the well-known theory that behaviors that are reinforced or rewarded will increase in frequency. The term CM comes from the concept that the reward is contingent on the successful achievement of the behavior that will be rewarded. It is a model that is used in nonclinical settings in everyday life: parents give rewards for good grades and employers give promotions for performing well on the job.
