  2. Goals of This Presentation • To examine the prevalence, course, and consequences of adolescent substance use and co-occurring disorders and the unmet need for treatment • To summarize major trends in the adolescent substance use disorder (SUD) treatment system, client needs and outcomes • To highlight SAMHSA’s 5 step process for program planning and evaluation

  22. The SAMHSA 5 Step Program Planning and Evaluation Process 1. Needs Assessment: • Define the problem • Quantify with available information (collect pilot data if necessary) • Identify targets for prevention, treatment, continuing care, and/or systems integration • Identify individual, staff, organizational and community assets and challenges • Develop tentative theory of change or logic model 1. Needs Assessment 5. Evaluation 2. Capacity Building 4. Implementation 3.

  23. The SAMHSA 5 Step Program Planning and Evaluation Process 2. Capacity Building: • Examine agency resources, skills, & strengths • Examine community resources and readiness • Think about what will be needed to sustain the effort • Build collaboration • Consider the need to start small and grow the change/collaboration • Use a walk through, simple pilot study, or rapid assessment to get initial momentum 1. Needs Assessment 5. Evaluation 2. Capacity Building 4. Implementation 3.

  24. The SAMHSA 5 Step Program Planning and Evaluation Process 3. Program Selection: • Prioritize a specific problem or cluster of problems • Attempt to quantify the problem, how it is related to other common problems, and challenges for implementation • Identify protocols that have been demonstrated to impact the problem with as similar a population/ context as possible • Select best fit based on effectiveness, likelihood of successful implementation, and cost/benefit 1. Needs Assessment 5. Evaluation 2. Capacity Building 4. Implementation 3.

  25. The SAMHSA 5 Step Program Planning and Evaluation Process 4. Implementation: • Use logic model to create an action plan • Track each step of the action plan with a process measure • Monitor process measures in real time • Document changes and their impact on these process measures • Document and analyze intermediate outcomes. If less than expect, consult, adapt if indicated, and re-measure. 1. Needs Assessment 5. Evaluation 2. Capacity Building 4. Implementation 3.

  26. The SAMHSA 5 Step Program Planning and Evaluation Process 5. Evaluation: • Check assumptions about problem, population severity, degree of implementation and reliability of outcomes • Evaluate outcomes overall, for different subgroups, different outcomes, and over time • Use to support Needs Assessment (i.e., what worked, what had problems, where do we still need to improve) and to identify new areas in need of program planning 1.

Severe Mental Disorder (MD) and Severe Substance Use Disorders (SUD) IV. Severe MD / Severe SUD: Often un or under served by above and end up emergency rooms, state hospitals and/or detention/jail – new programs needed Source: NASMHPD and NASADAD (1999) and CSAT (2005) Tip 32 Low MD MD .

  28. Actual Services Needed The Problem is that if we go by actual diagnosis, the vast majority of the patients are actually in the fourth quadrant I. Low MD / Low SUD IV. Severe MD / Low SUD IV. Severe MD / Severe SUD III. Low MD / Severe SUD Low SUD SUD Moreover youth in all four groups show up in all systems of care This is why we need to make an integrated system of care Source: Chan et al in press. GAIN Data on 4939 adolescents age 12-18 entering SAP, SUD, MH, & JJ Low MD MD

  29. Some Concluding Thoughts • We are entering a renaissance of new knowledge in this area, but are only reaching 1 of 10 adolescent in need of substance abuse treatment • Multiple co-occurring problems are the norm • Most people will take multiple episodes of care over several years and systems before they are better • Rather than acting as panacea, evidenced based practices usually work to pull up the bottom and address many small problems • Similarly, systems of care are less about solving all of the problems with a new grand design, then aligning the existing systems and resources so that they stop working against each other and collaborate to work more efficiently.
