Wyandot Center CCBHC - Wyandot Center proposes to implement the Wyandot CCBHC Project and become a comprehensive community behavioral health center through this SAMHSA funding opportunity. Wyandot Center will serve individuals of all ages from Wyandotte County, Kansas with behavioral health needs. Funding will enable the following interventions: substance use disorder services, 24/7 mobile crisis services, adult outpatient services, and ACT (Assertive Community Treatment) services.

In addition, Wyandot Center's children's services need more training in evidence-based practices. The goals of the Wyandot CCBHC Project are to increase access to and the quality of behavioral health services in Wyandotte County for low-income residents. In order to reach these goals, the Wyandot CCBHC seeks to achieve the following process objectives:

1) Increase the number of evidence-based therapy models and standardized clinical assessments available for use with families from 2 to 6 models and from 5 to 7 assessments.
2) Increase the number of people served by the intake department from 1,464 to 1,537 (5%) in year one and 1,757 (20%) in year two.
3) Decrease the number of individuals seen in the emergency room for suicide attempts or self-inflicting injury by 5% in year one and 10% in year two.
4) Increase the number of adults and children receiving ACT services from 64 to 90 in year one and 128 in year two.
5) Increase the number of adults and children receiving SUD services internally from 0 to 208 in year one and 300 in year two (including 100 dual-diagnosis families).
6) Increase the number of adults receiving outpatient therapy from 1,000 to 1,200 by the end of year two.

These process objectives will lead to the following outcome objectives for the Wyandotte County community:
1) Reduce the percentage of people who leave without an intake from 37% to 30% in year one and less than 20% in year two.
2) Decrease the number of individuals seen in the emergency room for a mental health diagnosis by 5% in year one and 10% in year two.
3) Decrease the jail bed days for those on probation or parole by 5% in year one and 10% in year two.
4) Decrease emergency department visits with SUD diagnosis by 5% in year one and 10% in year two.

The Wyandot CCBHC Project proposes to serve 4,624 individuals in year one, 5,266 in year two, and 9,690 over the full project period. Wyandot Center will directly provide:
1) Crisis mental health services, including 24-hour mobile crisis teams, emergency crisis intervention services, and crisis stabilization.
2) Screening, assessment, and diagnosis, including risk assessment.
3) Patient-centered treatment planning or similar processes, including risk assessment and crisis planning.
4) Comprehensive outpatient mental health and substance use services.
5) Screening for HIV and viral hepatitis to all individuals regardless of their ability to pay or their place of residence.

Wyandot Center will use grant funding to create and expand current services, as well as to provide training in evidence-based practices that will help clinicians meet the community's mental health challenges.
