Camino Real Community Services Sud and COD Expansion Project.

Camino Real Community Services (CRCS) is a non-profit local mental health authority for a 9 county region in South Central Texas. The catchment area covers 11,314 square miles and has a population of 245,660. Each of the targeted counties (Atascosa, Bee, Frio, LaSalle, Karnes, Maverick, McMullen, Wilson, and Zavala) are designated rural and have limited access to services.

In 2018, there were 486 SUD and COD referrals to CRCS; however, due to limited resources, only 136 (27.9%) of these individuals ages 13 and over received SUD or COD services. The need is apparent in the rural areas due to ease of access and limited protective factors.

CRCS has completed the certification process for the state and is awaiting determination of certified community behavioral health center. The focus of this CCBHC proposal is the expansion of SUD and COD services. The project will utilize MAT and the Matrix curriculum for intensive outpatient treatment services.

The project has letters of commitment from service/referral providers in the region, law enforcement, and probation. The project has identified a full-time director and full-time evaluator for the project and anticipates no delay in implementation of the expansion project.

The project would expand SUD and COD services across the 9 county region by working with criminal justice settings, youth ages 13-17, and adults. The expansion will increase access to services as qualified credentialed counselors would expand services from the existing clinic location to provide both live and video conference treatment sessions with SUD and COD participants.

The project has two goals, 12 objectives, and 12 measurable outcomes. These are:

Goal One: Reduce alcohol and drug use and abuse in the catchment area.
