1 1 Scott County Children s Mental Health System of Care Commission Operating Guidelines Purpose: The purpose of this document is to orient the Scott County community to the role, leadership, and governance structures of the Scott County Children s Mental Health System of Care Commission (The Commission). The Commission is a standing committee, and will serve as a leadership force for the Scott County Children s Mental Health System of Care (SCSOC). Background: Youth with mental health challenges: Are more likely to drop out of school 1 Are more likely to be arrested 1 Are more likely to be involved in the juvenile justice and child welfare systems 1 Have low levels of employment 1 Are more likely to experience poverty and homelessness 1 Have parents who are stressed and frequently miss work 2 Cost the US an estimated $247 Billion annually 3 The Scott County Children s Mental Health System is: Fragmented 4, 5 4, 5, 6 Inaccessible Siloed 5 Confusing 5 Overwhelmed 5 These growing concerns led to a Memorandum of Agreement between: 1 National Federation of Families for Children s Mental Health, Journal of Emotional & Behavioral Disorders, National Federation of Families for Children s Mental Health, QCHI mental health subcommittee- Hearts and Minds, Scott County Health Department Community Survey 2010, Quad City Vitality Scan 2007 and 2010, and Scott County Decategorization Annual Plan 2009 and Children s Mental Health Focus Groups, Summer Scott County Decat Community Forum, 2010
2 2 Funding: Planning funds were provided to the Commission and SCSOC by the Scott County Decategorization Program. Roles: It is the role of the Commission to: (1) Promote SCSOC values and principles; (2) Research, recommend, and design the SCSOC; (3) Provide governance and oversight of SCSOC staff, community panels, and activities that develop; (4) Promote a sustainable SCSOC. Vision: The children of Scott County will have accessible, effective and equitable resources to optimize their mental and behavioral health. Project Scope: The purpose of the Commission is to research, recommend and design a mental health system of care that is inclusive of family driven and youth guided, community based, and culturally and linguistically competent. The Commission will provide oversight, governance and promote sustainability and continuity following the implementation of the mental health system of care. System of Care Defined: A spectrum of effective, community-based services and supports for children and youth with or at risk for mental health or other challenges and their families, that is organized into a coordinated network, builds meaningful partnerships with families and youth, and addresses their cultural and linguistic needs, in order to help them to function better at home, in school, in the community, and throughout life. Core Values: Systems of care are: Family Driven & Youth Guided, with the strengths and needs of the child and family determining the types and mix of services and supports provided; Community Based, with the locus of services as well as system management resting within a supportive, adaptive infrastructure of structures, processes, and relationships at the community level; Culturally & Linguistically Competent, with agencies, programs, and services that reflect the cultural, racial, ethnic, and linguistic differences of the populations they serve to facilitate access to and utilization of appropriate services and supports and to eliminate disparities in care. Guiding Principles: Systems of care are designed to: Ensure availability and access to a broad, flexible array of effective, community-based services and supports for children and their families that address their emotional, social, educational, and physical needs, including traditional and nontraditional services as well as natural and informal supports. Provide individualized services in accordance with the unique potentials and needs of each child and family, guided by a strengths-based, wraparound service planning process and an individualized service plan developed in true partnership with the child and family.
3 3 Ensure that services and supports include evidence-informed and promising practices, as well as interventions supported by practice-based evidence, to ensure the effectiveness of services and improve outcomes for children and their families. Deliver services and supports within the least restrictive, most normative environments that are clinically appropriate. Ensure that families, other caregivers, and youth are full partners in all aspects of the planning and delivery of their own services and in the policies and procedures that govern care for all children and youth in their community, state, territory, tribe, and nation. Ensure that services are integrated at the system level, with linkages between childserving agencies and programs across administrative and funding boundaries and mechanisms for system-level management, coordination, and integrated care management. Provide care management or similar mechanisms at the practice level to ensure that multiple services are delivered in a coordinated and therapeutic manner and that children and their families can move through the system of services in accordance with their changing needs. Provide developmentally appropriate mental health services and supports that promote optimal social-emotional outcomes for young children and their families in their homes and community settings. Provide developmentally appropriate services and supports to facilitate the transition of youth to adulthood and to the adult service system as needed. Incorporate or link with mental health promotion, prevention, and early identification and intervention in order to improve long-term outcomes, including mechanisms to identify problems at an earlier stage and mental health promotion and prevention activities directed at all children and adolescents. Incorporate continuous accountability and quality improvement mechanisms to track, monitor, and manage the achievement of system of care goals; fidelity to the system of care philosophy; and quality, effectiveness, and outcomes at the system level, practice level, and child and family level. Protect the rights of children and families and promote effective advocacy efforts. Provide services and supports without regard to race, religion, national origin, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, physical disability, socio-economic status, geography, language, immigration status, or other characteristics, and ensure that services are sensitive and responsive to these differences.
