General Project information
Project Title: SAMUEL'S HOUSE: COURT -MANDATED SERVICES AND
SUBSTANCE ABUSE CASE MANAGEMENT
Subgrant Recipient: Monroe County Board of Commissioners
Implementing Agency: Monroe County Board of Commissioners
Project Start Date: 10/1/2011 End Date: 9/30/2012
Problem identification
a. The overall problem to be addressed is a Lack of Funding for Substance abuse case
management for Women who are court -mandated to Samuel's House (SH). The women all have
duel histories of criminal activity and subtance abuse.
b. Overall Problem Significance: Homeless women -in -crisis, many accompanied by their children
from birth-1 8 years of age arrive at SH daily seeking a place of safety, shelter and services. The
majority of clients are drug -addicted and have co-occurring disorders. An increasing number are
just released from incarceration, have criminal records, or have been court -mandated to serve -out
their sentences at SH. In 2010, the vast majority of women served in our program were identified
with criminal backgrounds and came to the program from jail or via referrals from the justice
system. It is for these women that Samuel's House is seeking BYRNE funds.
The Problem Significance/Need is 3-pronged:
1. Lack of funding for court -Mandated Women (Client Fees): Approximately 5 years ago, SH
began receiving women directly ordered by Monroe County judges to stay at SH for up to 90-days
instead of being sentenced to the Monroe County Detention Center. In 2010, 50 women were
sent to SH in lieu of jail. And, in 2011, there have already been 17 court -mandated women
residing at the shelter. Most of these women are sent to SH because of their substance abuse
and co-occurring issues and because SH has vast experience working with them. They benefit
from case management and essential services such as substance abuse workshops, employment
assistance from a job developer and transportation. It is anticipated that Samuel's House will
serve 20 court -mandated women with BYRNE funds requested in this application.
All women who come to SH are responsible for contributing to the program's expenses of housing
and food ($400.00 per month). This is an important component to help the women in the program
develop a sense of self-suffiency. It also helps support the program's expenses. However, women
who are court -mandated to SH have no jobs and no way to pay their fees until they gain
employment. Due to their criminal records, it is difficult to find work and fees go unpaid for at least
one month. Sometimes fees remain unpaid for the duration of their stay. Although the courts
require women to be at Samuel's House, the agency is not compensated by the judicial system.
Utilizing BYRNE funds for initial client program fees will allow women time to find jobs and the
ability to pay their own fees.
2. Lack of funding for Case Management: Case Management is the foundation for all client
success at SH. It goes far beyond providing shelter and food. The case Manager (CM) is on -site
to: design and implement all activitieslprogram ming, perform client intake and assessment,
administer drug/alcohol tests, refer clients to services, monitor client progress, resolve conflict,
and assist clients with development of individualized

case management plans. The CM assists in acquiring necessary documentation, locating
childcare and mental, as well as physical, health care. While these women are at SH, it falls to the
CM to monitor the court -mandated women and to report to judges and probation officers on their
behalf. These duties require special skills and place a large, additional burden on the CM. We will
utilize BYRNE funds to support the Case Manager's Salary and benefits.
3. Lack of funding for Testing Supplies: There is a proven prevalence of, and increase in,
substance abuse among SH clients. Agency statistics in 2010 indicate that the majority of the
general population of homeless women living at SH are dealing with substance abuse. And,
100% of the court -mandated women assisted by SH in 2010 reported having drug and alcohol
addictions.
Each client admitted to a SH program is screened for substance use before admittance into the
shelter. Also, compliance with random drug testing is mandatory for continued participation in the
program. The cost of one drug test is $15.00 and 1,400 tests were administered in 2010. Drug -
testing costs are not included in the program/client fees and no money is available for tests for
court -mandated women. It is expected that 134 drug tests will be administered for women at
Samuel's House with criminal and/or substance abuse backgrounds at a cost of $2,010 to the
BYRNE grant.
Those Negatively Affected: Those negatively affected by the described problems include the
increasing number of women who come to Samuel's House through the legal process, from jail or
even court -mandated. Because of their criminal backgrounds and drug/alcohol addictions many of
the women coming for shelter have become homeless, unemployed, ill and have either committed
crimes or had crimes committed against them. Not only is receiving Case Management and
staying drug and alcohol free necessary for remaining sheltered at SH, these are critical steps
toward a better future for a woman and her family. SH has proven that random drug testing is an
effective tool for encouraging a woman to remain sober and drug -free while participating in Case
Management.
c. Current Scope of the Problem: Current data reflects that 100% of SH clients entering the
various SH programs experience addiction. The latest available data obtained from the Monroe
County Sheriffs office indicate 6,447 substance abuse related bookings (19,631 jail days) were
reported in 2007-05. The Monroe County Detention Center reports over 80% of those arrested
have substance abuse problems and high rates of recidivism. The greatest indicator for the scope
of the problem is the 20 women with identified criminal backgrounds, substance abuse issues and
co-occurring disorders who stayed at Samuel's House in 2010. (Among those were 50 women
court -mandated to Samuels House in 2010.)
Agency Data in Support of the Problem: The data reported by the independent evaluator of the
Women -In -Transition (WIT) program supports the need for continued services such as Case
Management and drug" -testing for all women of Samuels House. The WIT program reached far
beyond its targeted number of clients anticipated during the program. It was expected that 55
women would be served by WIT in a year. However data indicates that 217 women participated
in the WIT program, placing it at more than 4 times the anticipated enrollment goal. As a result of
Case Management (including random drug testing), significant reductions in alcohol and drug use
were evident from

admission to six -months. Significant reductions in stress and emotional problems related to
alcohol and drug use were evident from admission to six months. Employment and health
situations improved as did the number of women who were able to acquire permanent housing
when they left SH.
Project Summary (Scope of Work)
The program contains the following components:
1. Client Fees Court -Mandated Clients
What will your project accomplish?
Samuel's House has now become a place where the courts mandate that female offenders go in
lieu of detention. While we appreciate the court's recognition of the value and impact of our
services, there is an unmet expense associated with these mandated visits. Shelter operations
are becoming more costly every day. At Samuel's House, a woman is responsible for paying her
portion of the expenses related to her room and board and services that she receives for the time
that she is there. We recognize that it is often very difficult for a woman to pay these costs when
she does not have a job or other means of support. This is especially the case when a woman is
court -mandated to us. Paying the initial client fees for the first month is impossible for these
women. With BYRNE grant funding, 20 women entering SH through the courts system will have
their initial fees paid while they are seeking employment.
Who will receive services? Women who have been Court -Mandated to live at Samuel's House in -
lieu of jail.
Who will provide the services? Staff at Samuel's House, Inc. will provide the services.
The program is not "evidence -based," however, by virtue of its mandated visits, the courts have
recognized the value and success of our program.
2. Case Management
What will your project accomplish? With BYRNE grant funding, a Case Manager will receive
salary plus benefits and 20 women with criminal and/or substance abuse backgrounds will receive
Case Management. The Case Manager is on -site to: design and implement all
activities/programming, perform client intake and assessment, administer drug/alcohol tests, refer
clients to services, monitor client progress, resolve conflict, assist clients with development of
individualized case management plans. The CM assists in acquiring documentation, locating
childcare and mental, as well as, physical health care. While women who have been court -
mandated are at SH, it also falls to the CM to monitor the court -mandated women and to report to
judges and probation officers on their behalf.
Who will receive services? Women who have been court -mandated to live at Samuel's House as
well as other program participants referred to us by other law enforcement entities.
Who will provide the services? The Samuel's House Case Manager.

administer 134 comprehensive drug tests.

substance abuse backgrounds.
Who will provide the services? Services will be provided by Samuel?s House Case Management,
Counseling and Monitoring staff.

Sheriff's Office, the prison system, the court system, and pre-trial services.
