Wyandot Center Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic Improvement and Advancement (CCBHC-IA) - Through this SAMHSA funding opportunity, Wyandot Center proposes to implement the Wyandot CCBHC-IA project and provide essential resources to ensure successful attainment of full CCBHC certification, continue to build capacity, and address current service gaps in the community.

Wyandot Center will serve individuals of all ages from Wyandotte County, Kansas with behavioral health needs, regardless of ability to pay or place of residence. Funding will allow Wyandot Center to respond to the pervasive community and improve access to community-based mental health and substance disorder treatment and support. Funding will enable the following interventions: substance disorder services for adults and youth, mobile crisis response services, care coordination services, and integrated behavioral and primary health services.

In addition, Wyandot Center and PACES employees will receive increased trainings in evidence-based practices. The goals of the Wyandot CCBHC-IA 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 percentage of adults and children receiving SUD services internally by 10% in year 1 and an additional 5% in years 2, 3, and 4.
(2) Increase number of internal glycosylated hemoglobin tests and cardiovascular screenings administered within the clinic to eligible consumers from 0% to 60%.
(3) 30% of clients served in medication only services will receive care coordination services in year 1.
(4) Provide mobile crisis intervention services to 200 clients in the community.
(5) 52 employees will receive evidence-based trainings to help meet community's behavioral health needs.

These process objectives will lead to the following outcome objectives for Wyandotte County residents:
(1) 80% of individuals who are referred to SUD services will be connected within 10 days of referral.
(2) After receiving SUD services, 60% of individuals will report improved scores on either the AUDIT or DAST-10 assessments.
(3) 60% of consumers reporting elevated glycosylated hemoglobin tests and/or unbalanced cardiovascular levels will be connected to primary care through coordinated care services.
(4) 70% of individuals who receive a mobile crisis response will be diverted from a higher level of care, such as jail or the ER.

The Wyandot CCBHC-IA project proposes to serve 6,000 individuals in year one, 6,300 in year 2, 6,600 in year 3, 6,900 in year 4, and over the full project period (these numbers represent unduplicated counts in the year but duplicated counts throughout the years).

As a result of this project, Wyandot Center will work directly to provide and improve:
(1) Comprehensive outpatient substance use services.
(2) Emergency crisis intervention services and crisis stabilization.
(3) Care coordination services.

Additionally, Wyandot Center will address current service access gaps and implement clinical metabolic monitoring and provide glycosylated hemoglobin tests and cardiovascular screenings administered within the clinic to eligible consumers. Wyandot Center will use grant funding address service gaps, and additionally, improve and create opportunities to increase accessibility to comprehensive care and provide training in evidence-based practices that will help clinicians meet the community's mental health challenges.
