Abstract
Benilde hall will implement the offender reentry program (ORP) to provide sentenced adults in the criminal justice system with individualized treatment and support services as they return to their families and community after incarceration. The ORP will serve 450 eligible adult offenders experiencing substance use disorder (SUD) and/or CO-occurring mental disorders (COD), with a special focus on black males with SUD and COD. Benilde hall will partner with three correctional facilities in northwest and central missouri (MO): algoa correctional center, jefferson city correctional center, and western reception, diagnostic, and correctional center within the MO department of corrections. Transitional housing, SUD and/or COD treatment, and recovery support services will be delivered in jackson county, MO, in the greater kansas city region. Population to be served: this project will serve eligible adult offenders reentering jackson county after incarceration. Benilde hall anticipates the following demographics: white (51%), black (43%), hispanic/latinx (3%), and other/multiple races/ethnicities (3%); 18-24 years (4%), 25-44 years (49%), 45-64 years (40%), and 65 years+ (7%); and 95% identifying as male and 5% identifying as female. At least 91% will be living at or below the federal poverty level, all (100%) will be experiencing homelessness and SUD, and roughly 70% will have COD. Strategies/interventions: benilde hall will implement a therapeutic community model approach with an emphasis on harm reduction. Case managers will employ a team approach, including working with probation and parole, to collaboratively develop an individualized treatment plan (ITP) informed by evidence-based biopsychosocial assessments, as well as a new validated tool, the ohio risk assessment system (ORAS), to identify and address their unique risk factors for recidivism. Based on this ITP and assessments for SUD and COD, benilde hall's licensed clinical staff will deliver evidence-based SUD and mental health treatment, including FDA-approved medication treatment and drug testing, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and seeking safety, as well as individual and group counseling. Benilde hall will also provide recovery support services in alignment with the ITP, with emphases on addressing basic needs, developing life skills, mentoring, and facilitating education/skills development and employment through improved access to these resources. Goals and objectives: the ORP will serve 450 unduplicated individuals over the five-year period (80, 85, 90, 95, and 100 per year, respectively). Specific goals and measurable objectives include the following: first, benilde hall will expand organizational capacity to provide high-quality, population-specific services to offenders with SUD and/or COD by (1) increasing staff capacity by adding two case managers, one counselor, and one peer monitor, (2) training six service provider staff in the ORAS train-the-trainer model, and (3) increasing the total number of unduplicated offenders served in each year of the project period, from 80 in year 1 to 100 in year 5 (25% increase). Second, the ORP will improve participants' overall mental health conditions and ability to abstain from substance use, as measured by (1) 60% of clients will show a decrease in mental health symptoms, (2) 70% will discharge from the program abstinent from drugs and alcohol, and (3) 60% will show improved ability to communicate mental health systems. Finally, the ORP will improve offenders' self-sufficiency and reduce criminal justice system involvement, as measured by (1) 60% of clients will discharge with stable employment, income, or having accomplished at least one educational goal, (2) 60% will discharge to stable, permanent housing, (3) 60% will show increased social connectedness at discharge, and (4) 65% will discharge with no arrests or reduced number of arrests from time of intake.
