April 2005) Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County-wide Subgrant Recipient: Implementing Agency: Project Start Date: Problem Identification The proposed project is "Breaking the Cycle, Heron-Peacock Supported Housing to Prevent Recidivism of Adults with Mental Illness to Incarceration and Substance Abuse." General Project Information Project Title: PREVENTING RECIDIVISM FOR ADULTS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS TO INCARCERATION AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE Monroe County Board of Commissioners Monroe County Board of Commissioners 1 0/1/2009 End Date: 9/30/2010 Heron-Peacock Supported Living is an organization in Monroe County that provides housing and supportive services to to adults with mental illness. Many of its clients are dually diagnosed as substance abusers, and many of these clients also have been recently incarcerated. This program will serve adults who are mentally ill, with a recent history of incarceration and substance abuse and will also monitor and educate all program clients to promote successful recovery, prevent drug abuse and incarceration. Since the early 1980's when the course of psychiatric hospital deinstitutionalization changed due to revised funding policies many people with mental illness have been discharged without adequate housing, community support, help from friends and families, and treatment. Serious outcomes have been escalation of homelessness and increasing incarceration of people who are mentally ill. The jails, prisons, and streets have now become the alternatives to therapeutic programs. In a recent article in the Key West Citizen, Monroe County Sheriff Bob Peryam, stated about the Monroe County Correctional Facility that "welre looking at reducing the population of folks with mental health issues, drug or alcohol issues, or homeless issues. Many of these people do not need to be in jail. II Incarceration of the mentally ill person is considerably more expensive than it is for the average offender, since during incarceration, these offenders need ongoing mental health treatment and supervision. Intensive supervision is needed to prevent suicide attempts while in jail; we need to ensure medication management/compliance and to prevent victimization by the other prisoners. By releasing them into our community-based offender supportive housing program, clients will have a safe residence. Through our project, Heron Peacock will provide low-cost, stable, community housing which according to many experts such as, the nationally recognized "Housing First" initiative, is the most important service. It has been shown that once people have housing they are more receptive to participating in other programs to deal with mental health and substance abuse issues. For example, a Peacock client recently entered the program after an arrest and incarceration, realizing that she had many issues to deal with she said, "Now, I can get better because I have a home." In addition, the supportive services we use address mental health issues, improve life skills and develop a treatment program that enables clients to remain clean and sober, and become a productive member of our community. The cost is also much lower than less effective alternatives. For example, he average cost per day at Heron-Peacock is $48.00 while information provided by the Monroe County Sheriff's Office indicates that the daily cost of a jail stay is $85.00. The daily cost Application Ref # Contract 201 0-JAGC-1 056 201 Q-JAGC-MONR-3-4X-119 Section #2 Page 1 of 6 Rule Reference 110-9.006 OCJG-005 (rev. April 20(}6) Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County-wide '.""" ~:~~~ii~~[,€t~f~1;f~r7~:ll~=:~~=~~=~~~::~~,"'~~ As described above there is a critical need to address the problems of widespread, ineffective, and often unnecessary incarceration of people who have mental illness and who have a dual diagnosis of substance abuse. (For example, the mentally ill are often incarcerated for minor misdemeanor crimes such as trespassing and loitering, which can be a result of their illness they may not understand the charges against them, and some are incompetent to stand trial.) This not only hurts the criminal justice system and the taxpayers by overcrowding correctional facilities and presenting inmates who have difficult problems and need specialized expensive care it can also harmfully affect a person with mental illness to the extent that they may never recover and will suffer the "revolving door" cycle of drug and alcohol abuse, possible homelessness, and recurring to incarceration. In addition, Monroe County has a tourist-based economy and is negatively impacted by this visible population. Homelessness, substance abuse, unemployment, loitering, panhandling, criminal activity, and health/hygiene/sanitation problems all negatively affect the tourism industry, as well as the life quality of our community. Many of our severe and chronic mentally ill live on a $550 a month disability check which cannot pay for housing in Monroe County. Heron-Peacock is the only provider of transitional and permanent supportive housing for this population in the Florida Keys. The problem of incarceration of adults with mental illness and substance abuse, especially those who are not major offenders is very serious and is growing. According to the Strategic Plan developed by the Monroe County Criminal Justice Mental Heath Substance Abuse Diversion Planning Council (MCJMHSA) current estimates suggest that as many as 700,000 of adults entering jails each year have active symptoms of mental illness and three-quarters of these individuals meet criteria for a co-occurring addictive disorder (Gains, 2001). Almost all jail inmates with co-occurring mental illness and substance use disorders will leave correctional settings and return to the community. In addition, Monroe County is considered to be an area of critical need with inadequate resources, to meet the needs of a disproportionately high percentage of individuals with Mental Illness or Co-Occurring Disorders, in need of services. Monroe County has the third highest incarceration rate in the State of Florida. The Homeless rate in Monroe County is the one of the highest per capita, in the State of Florida. There is only 1 Assisted Living Facility with a Mental Health License serving a total of 16 clients and only 1 Housing facility with a total of 28 beds willing to take individuals with serious mental illnesses and substance abuse. (These are the facilities of Heron-Peacock). In a recent study conducted by the MCJMHSA occupants of four facilities that provide housing for the homeless were interviewed. 590/0 responded that they had been arrested at some time and 460/0 indicated that they had at some time received counseling for a Application Ref # Contract 2010-JAGC-1056 2010-JAGC-MONR-3-4X-119 Section #2 Pa"ge 2 of 6 Rule Reference 110-9.006 OCJG-005 (rev. April 2005) Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County-wide mental health or substance abuse problem. In addition, 860/0 reported that they were participating in a program or shelter for homelessness. As such, there is an interrelationship among mental illness, substance abuse, homeless ness, and arrest and incarceration that must be addressed. The Southernmost Homeless Assistance League (SHAL) provided information in the 2008 Department of Children and Families Survey which indicated that of the subpopulations of the homeless in Monroe County those with the greatest need and the least resources to serve were the mentally ill and those with substance abuse problems. In fact, the problems of incarceration and its link to homelessness have become so epidemic that the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has identified major initiatives "to divert individuals with mental illness from the criminal justice system to mental health treatment and appropriate supported services". Project Summary The purpose of the project is to target clients, referred to us through the criminal justice system, who have been arrested or incarcerated and who also have been dually-diagnosed with mental illness and substance abuse, and focus on preventing their return to correctional facilities while achieving successful recovery from substance abuse. This will be accomplished by offering residents a safe, structured, progressive environment in which to live, and a low-cost and more effective alternative to incarceration. This includes safe, low-cost housing, referral and intake services, provision of supportive services and activities to stabilize their situation and help them with recovery. The spectrum of clients in the program includes adults 18 years of age and older from all backgrounds and demographic groups who because of their mental health difficulties and concurrent problems with drugs or alcohol have been incarcerated. Heron-Peacock operates two facilities one in Key West and one in Marathon in the Middle Keys for a total of 44 beds. Peacock Apartments in Key West offers 28 beds. The Heron, a licensed Assisted Living Facility (ALF) in Marathon with 16 beds provides more intensive support. Services include stable housing, medication management and supervision, drug screening testing and counseling, referrals to other providers for psychiatric consultations, prescriptions, medical and dental care and related services. Transportation, life skill development, supported employment, and recreational outings are other activities. Other services may include assistance with personal grooming, food service, and help with daily activities such as shopping; banking, etc., and 24-hour staff support. Both facilities offer educational programs, skills development, supported employment, and other constructive activities, especially those provided by the Personal Growth Center of the Guidance Clinic of the Middle Keys in Marathon. Of the current census of 42 clients at Heron-Peacock 19 or 450/0 of the census fall into the target population of the proposed project -- adults with a history of incarceration Application Ref # Contract 2010-JAGC-1056 2010-JAGC-MONR-3-4X-119 Section #2 Page 3 of 6 Rule Reference 110-9.006 OCJG-005 (rev. April 2005) Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County-wide and dual diagnoses of mental illness and substance abuse. The participants in this program will only be those referred to us through the criminal justice system -- mostly through Pre-Trial Services and the Monroe County Jail Diversion Program; on occasional the program will also recieve a referral through the Forensic unit of the state hospital. Objectives and related activities are as follows: 1 )To prevent recidivism of clients with a history of incarceration, including those entering through Pre-trial services or through the Monroe County Jail Diversion Program operated by the Care Center to correctional facilities. a. Use of Intake and Referral: The Site Manager and Team Leader will use the intake and referral process to facilitate entry into the Heron-Peacock Supported Living Program of people referred with a history of arrest and incarceration, and have a diagnosis of mental illness with Transition Program. Actions include initial contact with applicant, review of the referral for suitability and agreement of the applicant to accept program goals and policies, conducting background checks and excluding those with a history of violence, non-compliance with medications and other inappropriate behaviors, determining ability to pay client fees: and attempting to assist with this. The person applying is then accepted or not accepted into the program. b. Provision of Stable Housing and Supported Services: Clients are provided with housing at Heron or Peacock, assessed through use of a personal plan instrument, appropriate supportive services are identified and implemented; 2) Drug abuse prevention and intervention. a. The project will use Assessment, Monitoring, Testing, gO-day Program and Treatment Referrals to address and reduce problems of substance abuse. Staff will determine if the applicant has a history of substance abuse and discuss what the problems.are. During this process clients are advised that the program does not permit drug or alcohol use and this can be grounds for discharge. Clients are drug and alcohol tested randomly on a monthly basis and immediately for cause. If someone tests positive they are counseled by staff and must agree in writing to participate in a 90-day program during which they are tested weekly and participate in recovery treatment through a program such as AA or through counseling from a recovery and treatment professional. After the initial test the client is given two more chances. If they test positive two more times during the 90 days they are discharged from the program. This approach is unique and has been proven to be more effective than programs that discharge offenders after one positive test. Professionals in the field regard our program as a best practice since it assumes that people with substance abuse problems are likely to relapse and need help not punishment. 3) Recovery and wellness. a. This addresses all three areas of need, mental health, dr~g abuse, and incarceration and. includes activities directed at getting clients better and able to achieve the highest degree of independence possible and community integration. "This will decrease their likelihood of being arrested and returning to incarceration and assist in their resistance to abuse drugs and alcohol since they will have a stable and viable lifestyle. Activities include stabilization, entry, and continuation in the program, Wellness Recovery Action Application Ref # Contract 201 0-JAGC-1 056 2010-JAGC-MONR-3-4X-119 Section #2 Page 4 of 6 Rule Reference 11 D-9.006 OCJG-005 (rev.
