Stress, trauma and resilience II (star II) - the overall goal of the star II program proposed by clinical and support options (CSO) is to strengthen CSO's capacity to increase access to trauma informed treatment and to increase community awareness of trauma and its impact. Implementation entails deepening our evidence based ARC treatment model in outpatient and in-home programs and introducing and embedding the ARC framework in our therapeutic day programs, family resource centers and eventually all CSO child, youth and family programs. Geographic catchment area: CSO proposes to serve a 5-county area of western and central MA: berkshire county, hampshire county, franklin county, worcester county and hampden county. The regional service area contains 90 townships and 841,928 residents. Population of focus: the population of focus intended to benefit from star trauma treatment are children and youth with SED, substance use disorder and other behavioral health challenges by facilitating access to care for them and their families. Education and consultation target audiences: primary care and pediatric practices; schools, and early education agencies; hospitals (ED) personnel and direct care staff; law enforcement, first responders and courts; behavioral health advocacy organizations; victim assistance providers and advocates; veterans/military support organizations; community based organizations.
