Who decides?

What approach makes sense?

Mission: To work together to help the children and families in our target populations build and sustain whole lives.

Guiding Principles

Service-based, rather than place-based

Families will be part of the team and the decision-making process

Locally provided continuity of care and services

Culturally competent and strength-based services

Minimal disruptions in connections for youth and families

Focus on safe, stable, permanent living environment

Services customized to meet the family’s unique situation

Lois Rutten, Contra Costa County

Who Are These Youth?

Phase 1 Target Populations

Family Reattachment– Younger children who are in

placement due to a combination of family disruption, abuse and/or dangerous behaviors that can’t be managed in other settings

Pathways to Permanency– Children and youth who are growing

up in placement and do not have a permanent plan

Phase 2 Target Populations

Bridge to Success and Safety– Youth with complex needs who are

mandated to out of home placement in the juvenile justice system but are currently in detention

Reconnecting and Reconstructing– Sexually exploited girls who are

unable to stay in placement using current approaches

How Many Youth?

All youth/children in this pilot must be:– A dependent or ward of the court

described in section 300 or 602 of the Welfare & Institutions Code and/or,

– Receiving services under AB 3632

Family Reattachment – 100 Pathways to Permanence – 600

Criteria for Determining Target Population

Statistical case review – CWS/CMS

Individual case review – look for common characteristics

Optimal volume to sustain population?

Is there an existing cross-system partnership?

Can a program be regionally implemented?

Common Characteristics

Age and Gender– Male – 12-16 years old

Ethnicity– African American

Average length of placement in group care– More than 2 years

Average number of placements– 5-7– Out of county

Minimal family and community connections

Multiple psychotropic medications Multiple assessments/evaluations

for treatment– Diagnosis?

Residentially Based Services Proposed Funding Streams

BAY AREA CONSORTIUM

Presented by: Liz Crudo, San Fransisco County and Ellen Bucci, San Mateo

County

Objective

• To provide an overview of potential funding streams;

• Discuss potential funding model;

• Next steps.

Current funding sources

• Residential stay AFDC-FC Medi-cal / EPSDT

• Community stayAB 163 Wraparound FundingMedi-cal / EPSDT

Potential Funding Streams

• EPSDT– Case mgmt– Medication support– Therapy

• SB 163 Wraparound

• AFDC Residential Rate– Monthly bed rate board and care– In house stabilization

Potential Funding Streams (con’t)

• Other Wrap Dollars– New or unused slots– Wrap Savings

• Mental Health Services Act (MHSA)

• PSSF / CAPIT / STOP / TANF/Family Preservation/TCM/CALWORKS

• County General Fund

New Funding Model Assumptions

No new moneys;

Impact of State budget;

Providers will need to be Medi-cal certified for billing and leverage purposes;

Will require waivers and utilization of multiple funding streams;

New Funding Model Assumptions (con’t)

Need to build service model first, then funding structure (What do we want to achieve, rather than how much money do we have?);

Providers need to be WRAP eligible; and

Counties will need to apply for additional WRAP slots.

Counties would each need to contract with the provider for Medi-cal

New Funding Model Questions to be answered

• Service Model needs to be discussed and explored with Providers (Providers have knowledge re:making funding work);

• Need cost information from Providers; – Cost per individual youth will vary greatly?– Price Point? (average fair price)– Existing staff to be utilized or new staff?– How will youth without Medi-Cal be served?

Next Steps

• Complete RFQ;

• Hold discussions with providers;

• Create funding model.

MissionThe Los Angeles RBS Demonstration will transform intensive mental health services within the child welfare system to empower families and achieve permanency for youth.

Vision The creation of a strength-based, family-centered, needs-driven system of care that transforms group homes from long-term placements to short-term interventions, which are not place-based, which provide for seamless transitions to continuing care, and which support the safety and permanency needs of youth and their families

LA RBS CollaborativeIn November of 2007, the RBS Collaborative design group was formed and is composed of county, provider and community stakeholders.

Sacramento County RBS Reform

Collaborative Reform in Progress

Who are we?

County Agencies (CW, MH, Probation, DHA, Education)

Group Home Providers Parents Youth

Our Vision, Mission, Values & Guiding Principles

“Roots to Grow, Wings to Fly”

Vision Reconnecting children, families & community

Mission Insure that all children and youth who receive residential services

are ultimately able to connect or reconnect with family, school & community so they can achieve productive adult life outcomes

Statement of Shared Principles & Core Values

RBS reform is critical to improving the ability of children and families in Sacramento County to get the right services, at the right time and the right location.

Residentially Based Services should:

√Demonstrate respect for the culture, individuality and humanity of children, youth and families

√Provide and use thorough assessments to drive services

that are tailored to individual, youth and families

√Help children and youth in placement quickly return to and

remain safe within their families, successful in their schools and integrate into their communities

√Hold all providers and systems accountable for actions and

outcomes

RBS Outcome Goals Increased % of children and youth discharged to

permanency Improved placement stability for children and

youth in group care Decreased % of children and youth re-entering

after discharge from group care Shortened length of career stay for children and

youth in group care Decreased % of children and youth placed in out

of county group care

Target Population & Start-up Criteria

Initial Target Population

CW, MH, Prob youth ages 12-16 Assessed to need or already in RCL 12 or above 30 slots/beds to start Child Welfare 12 Probation 12 Mental Health 6 2-3 providers w/plan to increase number of youth &

providers annually

Referral Criteria

Presents safety issues for self or others that requires 24 hours supervision and needs cannot be met in family setting or lower level of care

Not currently receiving Wrap Unmet mental health needs present and likely to

continue for extended time without RBS, and for Initial Start-Up Only Current connection w/family or NFREM

Total Cost of Care and outcome components: All clients who have left care during 2006 and 2007 From RCL 12-14 Placed by Child Welfare, Mental Health, or Probation Federal and Non-federal (to be utilized to estimate correct ratio of FED : NONFED

AFDC-FC State Share Waiver-Waiver to create funding stream specific to RBS

community based services for aftercare and parallel services-To be used for non EPSDT billable services throughout continuum of care

What We’ve Learned & Where We’re Going

Collaboration is slow, but the way to go Vision, Mission & Values were key to moving

forward It’s hard to crawl outside the box Program and funding Model development is a

•Voice and choice for the child and family is present

•Continuity of care exists throughout the trajectory of care (no hand-offs, no drop-offs)
