Broward Behavioral Health Coalition, Inc. (BBHC) was created in 2011 and was selected by the Florida
Department of Children and Families (DCF) as Broward County’s Managing Entity (ME) for mental health
and substance abuse services. BBHC enjoys a diverse, committed Board of Directors comprised of
community stakeholders, consumers, and a limited number of providers. BBHC contracts with Concordia
Behavioral Health Inc. (Concordia) to provide some of its contracted management functions.
BBHC works with providers, consumers, and community stakeholders and BBHC’s Board of Directors
towards the implementation of BBHC’s vision which is “to ensure a responsive and compassionate
behavioral healthcare experience for people in our (Broward’s) community”. Our mission is “to advocate
and ensure an effective and efficient behavioral health system of care is available in Broward County
that promotes improved access to care, service continuity and provide for more efficient and effective
delivery of behavioral health services”.
BBHC has adopted the following system of care values:
 Consumer driven,
 Cultural competence,
 Compassionate service,
 Efficient management,
 Innovative system, and
 Fiscal integrity.
BBHC conducted a SAMH needs assessment in collaboration with the provider network, FAME, FADAA,
FCCMH. This needs assessment identified a $111,325,201 need in additional behavioral health services
for the System of Care in Broward County. Additionally, BBHC was part of Broward County Needs
Assessment process where health and behavioral health needs were identified (document available
upon request).

This organizational overview shall include service objectives, and anticipated outcomes from the
operation of the managing entity.
BBHC’s System of Care is comprised of the Children’s System of Care and the Adult System of Care. Each
of these systems provides behavioral health services to the individuals and families in need. BBHC works
to identify service needs and gaps, prioritize them in the system of care, and then together with the
Board of Directors, the provider network, and other community stakeholders and partners work on
solution focused approaches to address those needs and gaps.
CHILDREN’S SYSTEM OF CARE
Broward has benefitted from the experience and implementation of a System of Care SAMHSA Grant,
One Community Partnership that has enriched the children’s mental health system by a committed
partnership amongst Broward County, Children’s Services Council, DCF, and many other local
stakeholders. BBHC has sustained the gains from that grant including a well-funded wraparound
initiative for children and families in Broward County. The community has also maintained the Funders
Forum which is a group comprised of all of the local funders of the children’s system of care that
coordinates funding and the service array to ensure that the funding for prevention, intervention, and
treatment services are coordinated and maximized. Additionally, the Forum financially supports county
wide initiatives to improve the quality of service delivery. BBHC Board of Directors has a System of Care
Committee that includes community stakeholders and providers to oversee and receive feedback on
services needs and gaps.

In the BBHC behavioral health needs assessment there was $25,392,372 identified for the Children’s
System of Care in Broward County. This need was also substantiated by the County survey which
identified a variety to services and support needs for children from birth to 21. (The Broward County
Human Services Department Comprehensive Community Need Assessment is available upon request.)
Based on the identified needs from the above mentioned assessment, below are identified service
objectives and outcomes:
Transitioning Youth from the Children’s System of Care to the Adult System of Care: One of the
identified gaps is the services for youth transitioning from the children’s system to the adult system of
care. Often youth coming out of the children’s system fall through the cracks as each system has very
different array of services and requirements. To address these issues of transitional youth, BBHC
collaborated with Broward County and other community stakeholders and applied and was awarded
SAMHSA’s System of Care Expansion Planning Grant. This grant will begin on September 30, 2014. Our
objective is to complete the one year of planning for youth from 14 years old to age 21 and submit a
proposal to SAMHSA to fund the implementation of services for transitioning youth. The First Episode
Psychosis (FEP) Program just awarded to BBHC will be crucial to address the needs of youth and young
adults in this planning grant. The overall anticipated outcome is that transitioning youth will have the
consumer and family driven services and supports needed to successfully transition to adulthood.
To Obtain 20 SIPP beds and Facilitate Access to Care: There is a lack of SIPP beds for both Medicaid
eligible youth as well as for non-Medicaid eligible youth. BBHC has received a very limited allocation of
funds for non-Medicaid youth. As a result, community children in need of SIPP placements without
Medicaid or other insurance have limited access to this level of care. BBHC’s objective is to provide
immediate access to services to youth and families in need. BBHC funds the YES (Youth Emergency

Last Update: May 2, 2014

Services) Team that functions as a mobile crisis team for children and their families. BBHC has developed
an Expanded YES Team as a pilot that offers limited interim services. A special feature of the YES Team is
the incidental cost center that allows for the individualized treatment plan to be implemented in
accordance with each child and family’s needs. The Incidental cost center is flexible funds that are
essential in successfully supporting wraparound services. We will continue to advocate for increasing
the funding for SIPP placements so this will be available for youth in Broward County.
To Obtain a Children’s Assertive Treatment (CAT) Team for Broward County: The state has received
funding two years in a row to award and expand the CAT allocation. Given Broward County’s dense
population and the numerous children waiting for SIPP placements it is imperative that Circuit 17 be
funded for CAT Teams. If Broward County is allocated a CAT Team this will provide a more intensive
multidisciplinary community treatment alternative not currently available. In addition, the CAT Team
would serve to divert some of the SIPP placements which would be both cost-effective and reduce out
of home placements. BBHC is the only ME that has not been awarded a CAT Team.
T
F
A
Child Welfare/Behavioral Health Integration: BBHC implemented the Family Engagement Program, a
team of Peer Specialists housed at the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) which provides Child Protective
Investigations (CPI) for Broward County. BSO CPIs refer cases where suspected parental substance
abuse and/or mental health issues may place children at risk of harm. The team engages families into
behavioral health treatment and eliminates barriers that keep families from getting services. This has
been a very successful initiative where the engagement of challenging parents to services has increased
diverting children from the Dependency system and protecting them from harm by immediately linking
them to services by a well-trained peer specialist team. This initiative, in collaboration with providers of
behavioral health services, closes the loop on non-compliant parents by reporting to the abuse hotline
and FSFN progress or lack thereof. The outcome form this initiative is to divert families from the
dependency system and to protect children from harm.
R
D
Recovery Group Homes
In addition, BBHC has begun to work closely with the local CBC, ChildNet to develop Recovery Group
Homes as it has been a challenge to meet the needs of the youth in the child welfare system while they
are using drugs and alcohol. It is critical to insure the staff in these group homes provide services and
support for recovery in order to sustain the benefits of treatment. The objective is to ensure services are
available to child welfare youth that have substance abuse/co-occurring needs. The outcome is that
more child welfare youth with benefit from living in drug-free environment that facilitates their
recovery.
The Pregnant Post-Partum Funding Allocation is supporting treatment for women with dependent
children identified in need of substance abuse services. The objective is to provide immediate access to
services. The outcome of this initiative is that we were able to expand the capacity of this service to
serve more pregnant and post-partum woman with their children in a comprehensive residential
program that serves the family.
Promoting Clinical Training in Evidence-Based Practices (EBPs) is another special feature of our system
of care. This is a cost center that focuses on ensuring that direct service staff have expertise and provide
state of the art treatment to our community. BBHC has an ongoing learning collaborative with the
Medical School at the University of South Carolina to provide formal training and coaching to enhance
the capacity of delivering Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. BBHC has included the network

providers and additional community partners in this evidence-based practice community based learning
collaborative. Additionally, BBHC has and will continue to provide various EBP training opportunities
that address the needs of our community. The outcome is an enhanced service delivery system that
includes a multitude of clinical strategies and experts.
Juvenile Addiction Receiving Facility (JARF) Service Needs: One of the needs identified during FY 13-14
was the lack of a JARF in Broward County. BBHC has successfully worked with one CSU provider and DCF
in designating the CSU as a JARF. The outcome is that this additional level of care has benefitted the
community youth, especially our CBC partner, as children identified in need of substance abuse
treatment or co-occurring disorders are now able to be Marchman Acted into a secure setting and be
protected from further deterioration.
T
F
A
Utilization Management (UM)
BBHC launched its Utilization Management Program in June 2013 for residential levels I and II, SIPP, and
Therapeutic Group Home levels of care. The objective is to ensure that individuals placed meet the
clinical criteria and receive the appropriate level of care. Placements occur according to a centralized
waiting list by level of care. The outcomes include the availability of UM reports to provide necessary
data and trends to identify community needs and better manage the system of care.
R
D
ADULT SYSTEM OF CARE
BBHC is working with community partners, stakeholders, providers, and consumers in developing a
System of Care as reflected in BBHC’s vision, mission, and values. To accomplish this BBHC has been
working to identify strengths, needs, and gaps in the system. Broward County Human Services has
completed a comprehensive needs assessment. Additionally BBHC conducted a SAMH needs assessment
identifying a need of $85,932,829 in the adult System of Care.
Based on the identified needs from the above mentioned assessment, below are identified service
objectives and outcomes:
Mental Health Court: Broward County benefits from having the first Mental Health Court in the United
States. The adult System of Care has the largest forensic commitment rate in the State of Florida. Many
of the mental health resources are focused on addressing the myriad of needs of the forensic
population. BBHC’s objective is to shift the focus of the System of Care from a crisis forensic mode to a
preventive civil one, ensuring that the adult System of Care prioritizes civil individuals’ access by
diverting them from the criminal justice/forensic system. The outcome is to provide easy access to
services to clients identified in the civil system.
Increase the Number of Law Enforcement Officers Trained in Crisis Intervention Team (CIT): Broward
has had a CIT Program for over eleven (11) years. During the past fiscal year BBHC provided a full time
CIT Coordinator to engage all law enforcement agencies to participate in the CIT Training and to have
their workforce trained. Currently, Broward has over 700 police officers trained. The outcome is to
train 150 additional officers in FY 14-15.
Diversion from the Criminal Justice System: BBHC’s objective is to facilitate collaboration between the
Broward County Court System (including Drug Court, Veterans Court, Misdemeanor Mental Health
Court, Felony Mental Health Court, Drug Court, Dependency Drug Court, and Misdemeanor Drug Court),
Prepared By: SAMH

the public defender’s office, the state attorney’s office, and the provider network. The outcome is to
divert individuals and families from the criminal justice system and into appropriate treatment services.
To obtain funding for a Short Term Residential Treatment (SRT) level of care not available at this time
in Broward County. The lack of a SRT creates a gridlock in our system of care. Individuals needing access
to this level of care are taking up limited beds in the CSUs and other receiving facilities waiting for
placement in state treatment facilities. In addition, the lack of a SRT results in an increase in our
forensic system due to individuals with SMI getting in trouble with the criminal justice system. The
objective is to continue to advocate for this level of care. The outcome is to eliminate system gridlock
and to obtain funding for a SRT.
Housing: There is a tremendous need to expand the availability of housing with supports and
wraparound services for the adult population. The objective is to collaborate with housing partners and
community providers to develop housing with supports. The outcome is to ensure that individuals being
discharged from higher levels of care have appropriate housing options.
T

R
D
Virtual Visitation Pilot: BBHC has submitted to Tallahassee a proposal for a Virtual Visitation Program.
This pilot project will allow forensic specialists to visit their clients and participate in treatment team
meetings to assist in expediting the discharges from the hospital, among other outcomes. This is a cost
effective innovative method that would benefit the consumer and the system of care. Pilot was just
approved in June of 2014. Implementation will begin this fiscal year.
Addiction Receiving Facility (ARF): became operational in April of 2014 as a result of BBHC’s successful
negotiation with one of the CSU providers to become dually designated to address this need. The
objective is that this service not only benefits adults needing secure detoxification and substance abuse
treatment, but also young adults in the child welfare system and parents in need of this level of care, as
well as young adults. The outcome is that individuals are no longer inappropriately utilizing the Baker
Act facilities for substance abuse treatment and people are receiving the services they need.
To Support and Grow the Consumer/Family Network: BBHC just negotiated a contract with South
Florida Wellness Network, a Consumer-Run Network where peers can address issues and offer training.
BBHC envisions having representatives from adults, youth, and parents of youth that are receiving
services through the system of care be part of the organization. The objective in FY 2014-15 is to hire an
executive director and staff and develop an inclusive network. The outcome is that this network will take
the lead for offering trainings, advocacy, and provide support services.
Restructure Competency Restoration Training Program: A review of the existing program was
conducted and identified improvement opportunities. This was negotiated with the provider. The
objective is an improved program that is more intensive and time limited. The outcome is an increase in
individuals being restored to competency and serving those individuals that clearly meet the criteria as
BBHC’s target population.

It is anticipated that Federal Block Grant and State of Florida funding for behavioral health treatment
services will be available for the portion of the population below 138 percent of the poverty level and
not insured. Estimates for Broward County of this population are from epidemiological data prepared
by the United Way of Broward County’s Commission on Substance Abuse and preliminary data
submitted to the Department of Children and Families’ Behavioral Health Advisory Work Group. These
calculations are based on Broward County data from the US Census estimates for 2013, the National
Survey on Drug Use and Health Substate Data for 2008-2010 (released in 2012), and estimates of the
population below 138 percent the poverty level and not insured from the Behavioral Health Advisory
Work Group for the Florida Department of Children and Families and the American Community Survey.
Among Broward County’s total population of 1,838,844 there are an estimated 138,555 (or 7.5
percent) who are below 138 percent of the poverty level and are uninsured including:
 4,574 person with a serious mental illness in the past year,
 6,510 persons needing but not receiving treatment for alcohol use in the past year, and
 2,201 persons needing but not receiving treatment for illicit drug use in the past year.

IOS Health System which is our development partner is Meaningful Use
compliant from an EHR stand point. Meaningful Use guidelines come into play
on the EHR side. All BBHC providers should have a contract in place with an EHR
vendor at this point. BBHC requires that all providers have an EHR agreement
with a certified provider and this will be implemented by January 2015. The
provider portal meets all standards for tracking outcomes and reporting.

Implementation of clinical strategies, including standards for the system of care that
provides a coordinated cross-sector approach to services, including primary care, and
address the needs of youth with substance use problems.
BBHC has required that all subcontracted network providers establish a formal
Memorandum of Understanding with a Federally Qualified Health Center or local
Hospital District for the provision of primary health care.
BBHC provided Motivation Interviewing training which included a train-the-trainer track
to increase capacity and set up the System of Care infrastructure to maintain this EBP
for working with individuals challenged with behavioral health issues.
BBHC has developed and rolled out a Credentialing Program which includes the
credentialing of provider agencies and ensuring a minimum standard in regards to the
professional qualifications of persons staffed at subcontracted network providers to
conduct assessment services and case management services. The minimum
requirements for BBHC funded assessment services ensures that assessors at all funded
behavioral health provider agencies have basic knowledge of mental health, substance
abuse, co-occurring disorders and trauma-informed care. This Credentialing Program
has been developed to ensure that all children, adolescents and adults entering into the
system of care be evaluated by assessment clinicians who are able to identify all clinical
needs and make the appropriate treatment and service recommendations and linkages.

Scheduled monitoring activities for the year.
BBHC develops an annual Contract Accountability Review schedule. Based on an annual
Risk Assessment completed for each subcontracted provider an annual monitoring
schedule is developed. This schedule will be available after August 1 and is provided to
the Department’s assigned Contract Manager via email. The Risk Assessment factors
the services to be delivered; the value of the contract; history of compliance; financial

status; and history of complaints. The Assessment assists in determining the frequency
of monitoring; the scope of future monitoring; and the type of monitoring
(Administrative and/or Programmatic) needed. BBHC conducts monitoring via Desk
and/or Onsite Visits. Upon completion of the monitoring, a Contract Accountability
Review Report is prepared and sent to the provider within thirty (30) calendar days. The
Report includes deficiencies, recommendations for improvement, and any corrective
action required of the provider. While the Provider Relations Department retains
responsibility for all monitoring activities, the process is collaborative and includes
information and feedback on a provider’s performance from the Billing, Quality,
Utilization Management, and Data Departments.

Implementation of statutory and regulatory requirements.
T
F

BBHC adheres to, in part, the Department Operating Procedure 75-8; 65E-14, Florida
Administrative Code; chapters 39; 394; 429; 435 Florida Statutes; 58A, Florida
Administrative Code; Title XXI, Behavioral Health Network (B-Net); 65E-4, Florida
Administrative Code; 65E-11, Florida Administrative Code;65E-14, Florida Administrative
Code; 65E-15, Florida Administrative Code; and 65E-26, Florida Administrative Code in
conducting monitoring activities. Monitoring tools reflect the requirements of
applicable federal and state requirements and BBHC policies, procedures, and contract
terms and conditions. BBHC subcontracts with its providers and incorporates by
reference the requirements of its contract with the Department.

R
D
Implementation of methodology for adoption of health information technology that
meets meaningful use standards for the tracking of outcomes, and reporting progress.
BBHC’s provider portal includes the ability for providers and BBHC to produce reports
that show each provider agency’s performance for the performance outcomes as
identified on the provider’s contract Exhibit D. This enables provider agencies to track
and monitor their performance on an ongoing basis. Additionally, BBHC developed a
Performance Measures Workgroup that includes both clinical and data liaisons from
provider agencies. This workgroup looks at system-wide barriers to performance as well
as strategies for improvement. For FY14-15, BBHC is implementing a Provider Report
Card. This will provide a concise and “at a glimpse” synopsis of providers’ performance
overall with performance outcomes as well as other areas tracked, i.e. invoice
submission & data integrity, participation in BBHC initiatives, i.e. SOAR, Co-Occurring.
Additionally, Utilization Management reports are generated out of submitted provider
data which includes highlighting high-cost and high-utilizer consumers for identifying
opportunities to both reduce cost and improve outcomes for those individuals. BBHC
meets with the systems each serving this target group in order to look at integrating and
coordinating service efforts.

1.3 Strategic Objectives
Specify the key objectives for the system of care. Include specifically in this system of care the following:

Promoting the most effective prevention, treatment, and recovery practices for
behavioral health disorders;
BBHC supports the use of evidence-based practices (EBP); research-based practice with
proven successful outcome(s), throughout its system of care service delivery. BBHC
conducted an EBP survey in order to determine what EBP and best practice methods are
utilized within our system of care. The survey results are utilized to identify training needs
and interests. Based on the provider EBP survey completed in July 2014, the BBHC system of
care includes the provision of fifty-five (55) different EBP models. The 55 evidence-based
practice (EBP) models reflect a varied and diverse range of clinical and service strategies in
working with a broad range of individuals. Included are EBPs to address substance abuse,
Prepared By: SAMH
Last Update: May 2, 2014
12
mental illness, co-occurring disorders, trauma, homelessness, consumer-driven care, and
resiliency. Additionally, there are EBPs being used to increase and maximize the
engagement of those “resistant” to change and strategies targeted for children and
families. (Report available upon request) As part of BBHC’s commitment to and support of
the implementation of EBPs, since last year’s survey, BBHC has provided various training
opportunities including WRAP (Wellness Recovery Action Management), Motivational
Interviewing, Motivational Interviewing Train-the-Trainer, Trauma Focused Cognitive
Behavioral Therapy, SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access & Recovery (SOAR), WHAM (Whole Health
Action Management). BBHC has established a cost center so that provider agencies may be
reimbursed for time that direct care staff use for participating in EBP training. This
reimbursement supports training initiatives.
T
F
A
BBHC has supported the CIT (Crisis Intervention Team) Program through one of our
contracted providers. Their full-time CIT Coordinator collaborates with all of the local law
enforcement agencies and community partners to expand the CIT Program so that more
officers/deputies will be trained in mental health and substance abuse issues, in addition to
numerous other topics. Through this program, consumers will be diverted from the criminal
justice system and have greater access to the treatment they need. CIT is a nationally
recognized model program that incorporates a 40 hour training to insure that consumers
are treated in a humane manner and the police are better equipped to deal with individuals
experiencing a crisis. The CIT Coordinator organizes the CIT Training and is also available to
provide consultation with law enforcement on crisis issues and available resources.
R
D
BBHC has developed a Credentialing Program to ensure agencies’ professional staff have
active licenses and certifications, as applicable, in good standing. BBHC has developed
minimum criteria for case management and assessment staff to ensure relevant credentials,
professional experience and training. In establishing a minimum standard of professional
qualifications to deliver assessment services, BBHC ensures those assessment providers
have basic understanding and knowledge of substance abuse, mental health, co-occurring
clinical issues and trauma informed care to in turn ensure that the initial assessment
process thoroughly identifies all clinical needs and makes appropriate treatment and service
recommendations. Minimum standard for case managers also includes basic knowledge of
mental health, substance abuse, trauma informed care and the SOAR process.
BBHC has initiated and leads a system of care wide SOAR initiative. SOAR (SSI/SSDI
Outreach, Access, and Recovery) is a best-practice method designed to increase access to
the disability income benefit programs administered by the Social Security Administration
(SSA) for eligible individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and have a mental
illness and/or a co-occurring substance use disorder. The SOAR initiative not only includes
BBHC having previously provided SOAR live training but the commencement and ongoing
work of the SOAR Steering Committee. The committee members include BBHC, provider
agencies, the SOAR Technical Assistance Center supported by SAMHSA and the DCF State
SOAR Lead. The Steering Committee meets approximately monthly to address barriers and
identify strategies to optimize SOAR outcomes. BBHC has assisted the participating agencies
in getting registered and utilizing the OAT (Online Application Tracking) system, funded by
SAMHSA for tracking SOAR outcomes. This initiative is key in ensuring consumers access SSA
benefits as eligible, and BBHC funding is reserved as last resort.

BBHC has also begun touring and visiting its residential providers. Program visits include
review of schedule of activities and staffing patterns to ensure that programs are optimally
co-occurring capable and competent, as is applicable, and to ensure program activities and
staff expertise support recovery, consumer-driven care and provide the necessary resources
to help each consumer achieve their optimal potential for independence and community
living.
As part of the system of care oversight, BBHC implements quality improvement initiatives to
ensure quality services that can best meet the needs of consumers served. One initiative is
a newly developed Secret Shopper CQI program in which individuals will call subcontracted
provider agencies, utilizing call templates, to inquire about services. The purpose of the
Secret Shopper initiative is to ensure provider agency staff who are typically those
consumers and families first come into contact with are knowledgeable about available
services, provide a welcoming environment and make appropriate effort to initiate services
as indicated, and ensure compliance with Federal Block Grant requirements.

For Prevention:
BBHC and the United Way of Broward County’s Commission on Substance Abuse
incorporate the steps of the SAMHSA Strategic Prevention Framework in the development
of the Comprehensive Community Prevention Action Plan(CCPAP) including:
 Needs and Resource Assessment
 Capacity Building
 Strategic Planning
 Implementation with community prevention providers and others
 Monitoring and Evaluation
Prevention providers will engage the CCPAP by identifying which Goals and Objectives of the
CCPAP they will address incorporating one of the five SAMHSA prevention strategies and
related evidenced-based programs and activities. This will link process evaluation for units
of services provided to short-term, intermediate, and long-term outcomes. Thus, Broward
County and the BBHC will be able to better demonstrate the impact of its funded prevention
services.

Assuring behavioral health care is person-, family-, and community-centered;
BBHC’s management team includes a Consumer Relations Specialist. This individual brings to
the team the viewpoint and expertise of the consumer experience. This staff member is also a
certified peer specialist who serves as the BBHC managing entity liaison for consumer run
programs and advocacy groups and local consumer councils. This staff person participates in the
local ADM Planning Council, the Florida Peer Support Coalition, and the newly developed
Consumer Advisory Council. BBHC assisted in the development of a Consumer Advisory Council
that includes consumer and family representation from the adult and children’s mental health
and substance abuse systems, child welfare, and forensic system. This Council includes a parent
of a child with special needs and a youth consumer. The Consumer Advisory Council of the
BBHC Board of Directors serves to provide information and direction to BBHC for ensuring
consumer and family driven service delivery.

The BBHC Board of Directors includes consumer representation.
The award of the One Community Partnership2 Planning Grant will provide BBHC the
opportunity to build upon an already existing collaboration with system of care partners and
stakeholders in setting up additional systems to enhance and sustain person-centered, family
and consumer driven care. The population of focus will be youth 14-21 who are transitioning
from the children to adult system.
BBHC has also assisted in the development of a new organization, the South Florida Wellness
Network. This is a consumer-run organization that will house and provide advocacy, education/
training, and support services.

As part of the development of enhanced evidence-based practice (EBP) service delivery, BBHC
has provided WRAP (Wellness Recovery Action Plan) training including a train-the-trainer series
to enhance capacity and sustainability of this EBP. BBHC not only has trained consumers but
also program professional staff and case managers so that as consumers enter the system of
care, programs have the internal capacity to help all consumers develop an individualized WRAP
plan, a tool that the consumer owns, takes with them, and can utilize day to day to sustain and
build on recovery.

Prevention:
The CCPAP incorporates strategies for youth, adults and families, as well as Communities and
Municipalities for the Goals and Objectives of the community plan.

Ensuring the availability of HIV and TB services for individuals receiving substance use disorder
treatment services.
The availability of these services is monitored via annual Contract Accountability Reviews to
ensure each applicable provider within the BBHC Network: 1) gives priority consideration to
federally defined priority populations; 2) providers have developed and implemented policies,
procedures, and practices to identify client service needs and when appropriate, refer the client
to another service agency (this includes Federally Qualified Healthcare Centers (FQHCs), local
health department, and local hospitals); 3) development and execution of memoranda of
understanding/agreement formalizing partnership with healthcare providers to screen and test
clients; 4) outreach efforts that target high risk clients; and 5) training of provider staff in cooccurring needs and resources (internal and external to the provider).

Encouraging effective coordination within the behavioral health care field and between
behavioral health care providers and other health care, recovery, and social support services;
A major community prevention and intervention initiative has been the incorporation of the
evidence-based Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) process for 1430 year olds linking prevention, treatment, and health care providers.


Trauma-informed system of care supporting behavioral health consumers and survivors of
trauma;
BBHC recognizes the vital need for trauma informed and trauma focused services. Both BBHC
and DCF have facilitated Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) Training in partnership with SAMHSA being
brought to Broward County to expose provider agency staff, consumers, law enforcement, and
other stakeholders to this philosophy. As we are moving to a system-wide culture of traumainformed care, we have made this a priority. The likelihood of consumers involved in the
behavioral health system having experienced trauma has now become more of an expectation,
rather than an exception and staff need to embrace the TIC model.
BBHC has also facilitated the Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF CBT) Community
Based Learning Collaborative in partnership with the Medical University of South Carolina. This
collaborative has trained clinicians, referral sources and agency senior leadership regarding best
use of this EBP. Clinicians trained are eligible for national certification. BBHC has partnered with
local community stakeholders to secure resources for continuing the TF CBT learning
collaborative for a second year towards building capacity. The BBHC system of care providers
also utilize additional Trauma Focused EBPs including Seeking Safety, Traumatic Incident
Resolution / Reduction, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Trauma
Focused Coping – Multimodality Trauma Treatment, and the Trauma Recovery & Empowerment
Model (TREM). Provider agencies are able to utilize the EBP Training Cost Center to bill for the
time that direct service staff spends in EBP training.
T
F

R
D
The BBHC Credentialing Program, as previously described in this plan, includes assuring that
provider agency staff that conduct initial assessments have training in Trauma-Informed Care.

Assisting communities to utilize best practices to enable healthy living;
BBHC has required all subcontracted providers to establish collaborative relationships via a
Memorandum of Understanding with a Federally Qualified Health Center or a local Hospital
District to ensure consumers have access to primary health care.

Making behavioral health care safer by reducing harm caused in the delivery of care; and
BBHC tracks and monitors reported critical incidents and complaints for the purpose of ensuring
appropriate follow up activity and for mitigating risk. Additionally, BBHC conducts program
reviews based on critical incident report data and received complaints and grievances. Program
reviews may include on-site program visit, facility tour/inspection, review of policies and
procedures, client files, staff and client interviews in order to identify areas for improvement.

Fostering affordable, high-quality behavioral health care for individuals, families, employers,
and governments by developing and advancing new—and recovery-oriented—delivery models.
Since its inception, BBHC has committed to increasing the quality of behavioral health services
in Broward County. Not only offering trainings in Evidenced-Based Practices, but through the
Credentialing Program, providing technical assistance, and supporting provider staff
professional development. This fiscal year, BBHC is utilizing the set aside funds to support the

First Episode Psychosis Program that will provide cutting edge services to individuals in Broward
County, but also train those in Palm Beach and Miami-Dade Counties. BBHC aims at developing
its consumer/family network to be EBP trained and begin integrating in the formal behavioral
health systems by the end of FY I4-15. This year the consumer network will develop the
infrastructure to train network providers on EBPs to provide consumer driven care by using
WRAP throughout the network. Additionally, building the peer specialist workforce will aid
providers in hiring peer specialist into their professional services. There is research that shows
that peer specialists have a great success rate in engaging difficult individuals into treatment
compliance by using their experience as their strength for engagement Additionally, BBHC’s
network benefits from three (3) drop in centers that are consumer run. Broward also has one
clubhouse to serve those interested in a work ordered day. These programs offer recovering
individuals a place to go and receive support from peers, as well as share leisure time in a
recovery focused venue.

SECTION 2. PROVIDER RELATIONS AND DEVELOPMENT
This section shall address:
2.1 Mission
The managing entity shall include a statement regarding what they want to accomplish for the system of
care.
Our mission is “to advocate and ensure an effective and efficient behavioral health system of care is
available in Broward County that promotes improved access to care, service continuity and provide for
more efficient and effective delivery of behavioral health services”.
This organizational overview shall include service objectives, and anticipated outcomes from the provider
relations and development perspective of the managing entity.
T
F
A
BBHC’s objective is to advocate for a full continuum of care to be available in our community. This
includes obtaining the needed resources to fill the gaps, which includes the following priorities:
R
D
Short Term Residential Treatment (SRT – 30 beds)
SIPP – (20 beds Non- Medicaid Youth)
CSU - (Additional 30 beds)
Family Intervention Team (FIT) – Support parents in the Child Welfare System
Children’s Assertive Treatment (CAT) Team – Assist in diverting children and families from SIPP
Placements
Criminal Justice Diversion Team
Additional Funding for Peer Support Services
Housing with wraparound support
The outcomes for enhancing our system of care with the above services include:
Less individuals requesting access to the state hospital
Less individuals in the jails/forensic system
Increase family reunification with better outcomes
Less children revolving through CSU
More individuals successfully transition from the state hospital and from the CSU to community settings
2.2 Operations
Describe the clinical standards for operations, paying particular attention to the minimization of
duplicative requirements with other public funding sources, systems and procedures.
The billing department will part take in the following tasks in order to assure the reduction of duplicative
requirements with other public funding sources, systems and procedures:

Enhance our DVI in order to assure that that 95% of providers achieve a DVI of 95% or greater
(October 2014)

Run a DVI reports which tracks matched funds (On-going)


Evaluate instituting the requirement of Admission records prior to service record submission in
the Provider Portal allowing a great view of dual admissions (August 2014)

Ensure that Provider funding is managed to maximize the number of clients (On-going)

Electronic reconciliation of the Managing Entity’s audit report and data information system for
Individuals Served (Monthly)
Describe a plan to monitor the Marketplace to ensure that individuals with behavioral health conditions
are aware of their eligibility, able to get enrolled, and able to stay enrolled.
BBHC has initiated and leads a system wide SOAR initiative. SOAR (SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access, and
Recovery) is a best-practice method designed to increase access to the disability income benefit
programs administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA) for eligible individuals. The SOAR
initiative not only includes BBHC having previously provided SOAR live training but the commencement
and ongoing work of the SOAR Steering Committee. The committee members include BBHC, provider
agencies, the SOAR Technical Assistance Center supported by SAMHSA and the DCF State SOAR Lead.
The Steering Committee meets approximately monthly to address barriers and identify strategies to
optimize SOAR outcomes. BBHC has also worked with provider agencies to ensure case management
and other programs are structured to support the SOAR initiative and to ensure staff have the training
and administrative support to be able to complete the SOAR application for all potentially eligible
consumers. Programs work in collaboration with their agency billing teams to review cases being billed
to BBHC towards identifying consumers who may be eligible for SSA program benefits, not currently
enrolled. This initiative is critical in ensuring consumers access SSA benefits as eligible and ensures BBHC
funding is reserved as last resort for those who are not eligible and for services not covered by SSA
benefits and other available funding sources.
T
F
A
R
D
Describe how clinical standards for operations will address particularly vulnerable populations with
evolving needs.
BBHC has developed and rolled out a Credentialing Program which includes the credentialing of provider
agencies and ensuring a minimum standard in regards to the professional qualifications of persons
staffed at subcontracted network providers to conduct assessment services and case management
services. The minimum requirements for BBHC funded assessment services ensures that assessors at all
funded behavioral health provider agencies have basic knowledge of mental health, substance abuse,
co-occurring disorders and trauma informed care. The Credentialing Program has been developed to
ensure that all children, adolescents and adults entering into the system of care be evaluated by
assessment clinicians who are able to identify all clinical needs and make the appropriate treatment and
service recommendations and linkages. The minimum professional qualifications for case management
services funded by BBHC include training in trauma-informed care, SOAR and WRAP to ensure
consumers are identified who are eligible for SSA program benefits and so the case managers are
knowledgeable about WRAP so they can in turn help consumers develop and evolve their individual
WRAP plans.
Additionally, BBHC participates in the DCF Local/Regional Review Committees with community wide
collaboration in which the primary children’s funding sources come together to address system barriers
to meet the needs of the most challenging cases that cross systems.

BBHC’s implementation of the Utilization Management (UM) Program ensures a system in which
individuals who are placed in the highest and most intense levels of care require such levels of care.
Additionally, those cases are staffed on a regular basis by the UM program and treatment provider to
ensure continued need for services and to identify most appropriate step down plan.
Describe the review strategy for Network Service Provider contracts, including performance measures
developed.
BBHC conducts regular monitoring of the provider network based on the risk assessment. These
monitoring are conducted by either a desk review or on-site monitoring depending of level of risk. BBHC
is implementing the provider Report Card for FY14-15. The Report Card will be completed quarterly and
provided to each subcontracted service provider. The Report Card will serve as an overview of the
provider’s performance including invoicing, data submission, meeting required performance measure
outcomes, utilization management of allocated funds, compliance with TANF certification, BBHC
utilization management program, consumer satisfaction surveys, and other contractual requirements.
The Report Card will serve as a tool for both provider agencies and BBHC to identify areas of needed
improvement and training and technical assistance needs.
T
F
A
R
D
Contract Accountability Reviews as well as program reviews as part of follow up activity in response to
reported critical incidents and complaints also serve to ensure network provider contract compliance
and quality of care service delivery. BBHC’s Performance Measures Workgroup meets to identify
barriers to achieving the outcomes and develops strategies for improvement.
Describe Network Service Provider engagement efforts, including how progress or change will be
communicated, opportunities for partnering with other public funding sources to reduce duplication and
overlapping of service, continuity of care, and integration activities.
BBHC holds quarterly provider meetings in order to ensure a formal venue for information
dissemination and to engage network providers in BBHC initiatives and operations. Network provider
suggestions and recommendations are utilized towards the development and enhancement of system
initiatives. Additionally, BBHC sends electronic provider updates approximately weekly that includes
reminders for upcoming meetings, trainings and community events, policy updates and other relevant
information that may impact system of care services.
Engagement of new network providers will take place through a prequalification process, credentialing
process and qualification of professionals for certain services. These processes will be advertised via
BBHC’s website as necessary and will be communicated to the existing network. Presently, BBHC
collaborates and partners with other community funders such as Broward County, the United Way, and
Broward’s Children Services Council to maximize resources and minimize duplication. Since AHCA just
finalized the implementations of the MMA’s BBHC plans to engage in negotiations to maximize their
resources and explain the needs of the SMI and SED population. Additionally, BBHC has successfully
engaged the two FQHCs in agreeing to sign MOU’s with all network providers. Also the two tax assisted
hospitals are part of the partnership. This effort has assisted in a better integration of behavioral and
primary health.

BBHC participates in the Funders Forum of all children’s services funding entities. The Forum addresses
system needs, barriers and gaps as well as strategies to minimize service duplication and maximize
resources. For the adult population, BBHC leads the SOAR initiative, as previously described, to ensure
adult consumers are knowledgeable about and enrolled in applicable SSA program benefits so that BBHC
funds may be utilized for those ineligible and for services not covered by alternative funding sources.
Describe the provider dispute resolution process.
BBHC also has a formal process for addressing complaints and grievances. BBHC has subcontracted its
CQI systems to Concordia Behavioral Health (Concordia) which manages complaint and grievance
resolution. This process includes conducting program reviews, interviewing consumers and program
staff, towards identifying root cause and opportunities for service delivery improvement.
T
F
A
Describe how provider capacity will be built for third-party contract negotiations; e.g., negotiating
contracts for participation in a qualified health plan, or Medicaid managed care plan.
R
D
BBHC requires that all network providers obtain applicable Medicaid provider status and/or MMA plan
network status so that services covered by Medicaid MMA and other Medicaid plans are covered by
those respective Medicaid programs.
2.3 Strategic Objectives Specify the key objectives for the Network
BBHC’s key objectives for the service network include ensuring a complete continuum of care that
meets the community needs and provides quality of care evidence-based prevention, intervention and
treatment modalities. BBHC partners with community stakeholders in making system of care
adjustments to address identified needs, gaps and barriers. Additionally, BBHC has submitted Legislative
Budget Requests (LBR) in efforts to obtain needed funding to implement a Short Term (locked)
Residential (SRT) Treatment Program, not currently available in Broward as well as funds to address the
need for additional CSU and SIPP beds. BBHC participated in the statewide needs assessment process in
July 2014.
To ensure that existing services meet quality standard, BBHC conducts contract accountability reviews
and program reviews based on each network provider’s risk assessment. Program monitoring activity
looks at service delivery environment, clinical strategies, consumer satisfaction, and program outcomes.
Additionally, BBHC provides training to the system of care provider agencies to increase capacity of
evidence-based practices so that children, adolescents, adults and families can access treatment and
services best equipped to address their needs and facilitate resiliency and recovery while minimizing
continued system involvement

SECTION 4. CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CONSUMER AFFAIRS
This section shall address:
4.1 Operations
Describe how the managing entity will be responsive to consumers – of behavioral health services.
Include a description of how dispute resolution, complaint management, and requests for information
will be handled.
The Broward Behavioral Health Coalition (BBHC) is highly committed to being responsive to the needs
and feedback of consumers. BBHC’s four person management team includes a consumer on staff as the
managing entity (ME) Consumer Relations Specialist. The BBHC Consumer Relations Specialist
participates in the local Consumer Planning Council as well as the newly developed Consumer Advisory
Council of the BBHC Board. The Consumer Advisory Council includes consumers in recovery with mental
illness, substance abuse as well as forensic and child welfare system involvement. Additionally, the
Consumer Relations Specialist visits programs and interviews consumers to help in identifying consumer
needs and interests. BBHC program development and system of care strategies take into account issues,
barriers and interests of consumers.

The BBHC Consumer Relations Specialist participates in the statewide Florida Peer Support Coalition
towards ensuring local representation for statewide consumer voice and advocacy. One of the goals of
this coalition is to bring issues of concern to the Florida Legislature. Additionally, this coalition is looking
at solutions to problems identified by consumer groups and to facilitate formalized communication
among peers throughout the state to share ideas and strategies to enhance consumer driven care. The
BBHC Consumer Relations Specialist participated in the recent Leadership Summit, organized by the
Peer Support Coalition.
The BBHC Consumer Relations Specialist also serves as a resource to provide information to consumers
and families regarding service types and how to access various services based on need. This key
consumer staff member provides a peer to peer support for navigating the system of care.
BBHC also has a formal process for addressing complaints and grievances. BBHC has subcontracted its
CQI systems to Concordia Behavioral Health (Concordia) which manages complaint and grievance
resolution. This process includes conducting program reviews, interviewing consumers and program
staff, towards identifying root cause and opportunities for service delivery improvement.
As part of implementing consumer-driven care using an evidence-based practice, BBHC has provided
Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) training for consumers and program staff throughout the system
of care. The goal is to set up infrastructure so that treatment programs help consumers develop
individual WRAP plans which the consumers take with them throughout the continuum of care. The
training has included a facilitator training so that more Broward consumers are now trained as WRAP
facilitators and may in turn conduct WRAP training. Consumers’ individual WRAP plans include a crisis
plan component which contains critical individualized information such as emergency contacts,
medications, preferred interventions to de-escalate, etc. WRAP plans also include a daily maintenance
list which serves as a reminder of what tasks need to be completed to maintain wellness.
BBHC has facilitated the development of the South Florida Wellness Network, a consumer-run
organization that will house advocacy, training and peer support services.

The BBHC Consumer Handbook is available on the website at www.bbhcflorida.org which provides
information about our service array and contact numbers. All BBHC staff is responsive to requests for
information and referral which come from consumers, family members, professionals, and the general
public. BBHC has also funded the well-known First Call for Help Information and Referral Line (2-1-1)
which operates twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week.
Include a description of how consumers will access behavioral health services. Include access to
emergency services, continuity of care, and community-based, consumer-driven services in a manner
that is consistent with statutory and regulatory requirements.
BBHC’s service delivery network includes the availability of 24/7 emergency and crisis stabilization
services. 24/7 available services include designated crisis stabilization units, hospital district treatment
services as well as mobile crisis teams for adults and children. The mobile crisis teams may be accessed
24/7, 365 days per year and will conduct in-home evaluation to determine need. Additionally, BBHC has
provided for the establishment of a full-time CIT (Crisis Intervention Team) Coordinator to enhance
capacity of the CIT training so law enforcement is well versed in how to access behavioral health services
for those with whom they come in contact.

BBHC has provided funding to develop and disseminate a local ‘Connections’ resource book. The
Connections guide book includes the names, addresses, phone numbers and contact information for all
local behavioral health and emergency service, as well as other resources. Although this book was
designed for consumers and family members, the professional community utilizes it on a regular basis.
Additionally, the BBHC Consumer Handbook includes a listing of local behavioral health services.
BBHC promotes a ‘No Wrong Door’ policy so that as consumers, children and families seek services via
various potential system entry points, providers and systems are equipped to provide evaluation,
determination of need and appropriate service linkage(s). BBHC’s Credentialing Program ensures that all
provider agency assessment staff have professional qualifications and training in mental health,
substance abuse, co-occurring disorders and trauma so that assessments conducted at any provider,
despite specialty, can identify all behavioral health and clinical needs and make the appropriate service
linkages.
Additionally, BBHC has initiated training and system collaboration initiatives to ensure those children
and families’ needs are identified and addressed. BBHC’s funded Family Engagement Program is colocated at the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) which houses the Child Protective Investigations (CPI) for
Broward. All families in which substance abuse and/or mental health issues are identified to be putting
children at risk are referred for services. Additionally, the CPI units have the current list of providers
participating in the BBHC Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF CBT) Community Based
Learning Collaborative so that the CPIs can direct referrals to those behavioral health agencies, where
necessary, that have in house TF CBT evidenced based therapy to address and resolve trauma.
Additionally, all BBHC providers and BBHC management participates in the Broward CARES (Community
for Access to Recovery, Empowerment and Support) which is a formal workgroup that also includes
community partners which provides an opportunity to network and conduct cross system referrals.
BBHC’s Utilization Management (UM) Program receives referrals from the community for those levels of
care managed by BBHC, i.e. residential levels I, II, SIPP, and Therapeutic Group Care.

Concordia’s utilization review (UR) incorporates the use of level of care criteria and guidelines to make
determinations about clients’ appropriateness for managed services upon admission, throughout
treatment and at discharge. This process includes monitoring that key individuals such as case managers
participate in reviews and staffings, as necessary. Discharge planning is addressed early in treatment to
allow ample time for the coordination of services and to facilitate a smooth transition to the next
appropriate level of care.
4.2 Strategic Objectives
Describe the methodology for adjustment for constraints. Include a description of communicating the
adjustment to stakeholders.
Consumers with co-morbid conditions present challenges in placement for appropriate care. Particularly
those will low functioning levels, intellectual disabilities, dementia as a primary diagnosis, physical
impairments requiring nursing home care, and those with sex offense charges are of major concern.
Efforts are made with other service systems to coordinate care to meet the needs.

SECTION 5. PROJECTED COMMUNITY NEED, AND ANTICIPATED SERVICE TARGETS
This section shall address:
5.1 Need
Describe how the managing entity will support the reduction of disparities in access, services provided,
and behavioral health outcomes among its diverse subpopulations. Include a plan to collect and utilize
data for identifying subpopulations and implementing strategies to decrease the disparities in access,
service use, and outcomes both within those subpopulations and in comparison to the general
population.
Access to care is available for consumers of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds, in addition to those with
disabilities. Providers are required to offer translation services for those languages that are not available
at their agency.
T
F
A
BBHC monitors disparities in access through ongoing communication with stakeholders in the Broward
System of Care, the complaint process and through analysis of UM data and trends. When disparities in
access are identified and access standards are not met, BBHC intervenes directly with the
providers/community stakeholder to identify strategies to resolve the disparities. UM reports provide
detailed information about service use and outcomes thus allowing for in depth comparisons both
within subpopulations and across populations.
R
D
BBHC participated in the Broward County Needs Assessment, a comprehensive analysis of all Broward
County funded systems and services in order to identify needs, gaps and barriers. BBHC’s System of Care
Committee of the Board of Directors has received a summary report of the completed County-wide
needs assessment for review, discussion and consideration in relation to making system of care
adjustments. Additionally, BBHC participated in the Statewide needs assessment process in
collaboration with DCF, FADAA and the Florida Council. To address identified needs, BBHC has met with
all subcontracted network providers to determine appropriate funds allocation to ensure service
availability best meets community needs.
One of the services provided by the United Way of Broward County’s Commission on Substance Abuse
funded by BBHC in co-operation with Nova Southeastern University is the ongoing epidemiological
tracking of patterns and trends of substance abuse in Broward County. In addition to monitoring public
health, criminal justice data, and various surveys, the Commission on Substance Abuse’s Surveillance
Committee meets monthly to report emerging issues including changing patterns of abuse, the arrival of
new synthetic drugs, and populations at risk.
A major community prevention and intervention initiative has been the incorporation of the evidencebased Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) process for 14-30 year olds
linking prevention, treatment, and health care providers.
For substance use disorder treatment:
 Submit to the department an assessment of the need in the region for authorized activities, both
by locality and by the region in general. This shall which include the following:
 Data which shows the incidence and prevalence in the region of drug abuse and
dependency, substance misuse and alcohol abuse and dependency.

Needs Assessment
The nonmedical use of prescription opioids continues as Florida’s and Broward County’s most
deadly and addictive drug problem. While there has been significant progress in reducing
prescription drug diversion across Florida along with moderate declines in consequences related
to the nonmedical use of pharmaceuticals in Broward County, deaths and treatment admissions
for prescription opioids still remain at high levels. There were 101 cases involving one or more of
four different prescription opioids during the first 6 months of 2013 in Broward County. Among
the reports for these four narcotic analgesics in the first half of 2013, 71 percent were
considered to be a “cause of death.” There were 1,030 primary treatment admissions for
“opiates other than heroin” (prescription opioids) in Broward County during 2013. These cases
accounted for 29 percent of the 3,611 publicly funded treatment admissions in which a primary
drug was cited (including 1,104 for alcohol). This total is an increase in the proportion of primary
prescription opioid admissions compared to 2012 when the drug accounted for 23 percent of all
admissions. Males accounted for 59 percent of the 2013 opioid treatment clients, and 58
percent (n=593) reported injecting as their primary route of administration. Nearly 3 out of 4
occurrences of prescription opioids detected in deceased persons were found in those aged 35
or older while nearly 2 out of 3 addiction treatment admissions for prescription opioids were for
those below age 35.

The former “bath salt” and synthetic cathinone, Methylone, along with other hallucinogens are
the fastest rising drugs analyzed by South Florida crime labs. There were 1,194 methylone crime
lab items, mostly sold as “Mollys,” compared to only 54 MDMA reports in 2013. In all there,
were 36 different emerging synthetic drugs analyzed in South Florida crime labs in 2013 for a
total of 1,540 such items seized in drug arrests.
Deaths in which cocaine was found to be present declined sharply in Broward County during the
first half of 2013. Cocaine treatment admissions also continued to decline in 2013. Cocaine
crime lab cases continue to outnumber all other substances while declining 11-percent between
2012 and 2013. The majority of cocaine-related deaths and addiction treatment admissions
were among those older than 35. Projections from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health
(NSDUH) Substate Data estimate that there were 22,710 users of cocaine in the past year aged
12 and above living in Broward County
Heroin indicators remain at relative low levels and stable although heroin crime labs cases
increased 33-percent locally between 2012 and 2013. There were 224 primary admissions for
heroin in Broward County during 2013 or 6 percent of the 3,611 treatment admissions to
programs receiving any public funding and for which a primary drug was cited.
Consequences of marijuana use and addiction continued at high levels particularly among
adolescents and young adults. However primary marijuana treatment admissions declined
sharply both locally and nationally in 2013 and particularly among youth in Broward County. The
increasing uses of civil citations in lieu of criminal charges for juveniles have reduced the high
level of adolescents as marijuana treatment clients. Eleven different synthetic cannabinoids
were detected in South Florida crime labs during 2013 for a total of 145 items including 68 for
XLR-1. Production of marijuana “Wax” or “Budder” is increasingly found in seized local grow
house operations.

While methamphetamine consequences are at low levels compared to other substances, crime
lab cases increased 24-percent in 2013 compared to 2012 as deaths statewide increased 11percent from 146 in 2012 to an estimated 162 for 2013 based on cases in the first half of the

For primary prevention activities, the activities must be broken down by strategies used, and the
specific activities conducted1. This shall include the following:

Specific risk factors being addressed by activity;
The Problem Statement Logic Models of the Comprehensive Community Prevention Action
Plan (CCPAP) identify the following risk factors from the needs assessment process that are
targeted in the plan’s Goals and Objectives:
 Parental and Adult attitudes permitting consumption of alcohol by minors
 Low perception of harm among adults regarding underage drinking
 Low perception of harm among youth regarding alcohol use by someone their age
 Social acceptance among youth of alcohol use
 Social Access to alcohol from family and friends among 12-17 year olds
 Retail Access to alcohol among 18-20 year olds
 Low perception of risk among adults about marijuana use particularly among youth
 Social acceptance of marijuana use by adults and youth
 High prevalence and perceived prevalence of marijuana use by youth and adults
 Low perception of harm among youth about marijuana use for someone their age
1
As specified in 45 C.F.R. 96.125(b), states shall use a variety of evidence-based programs, policies, and practices that include information
dissemination, education, alternatives, problem identification and referral, community-based processes, and environmental strategies.

activity; and
R
D
Youth aged 12-17 years and Young Adults 18-30 followed by those Seniors aged 62 to 70
and above are targets for generational specific prevention activities and strategies.
Males are generally more likely to experiment with drug use as youth yet adolescent
girls have higher rates of alcohol use. Males and females also have similar rates of
addiction related to the non-medical misuse of pharmaceuticals.
Among youth non-Hispanic, Whites and Hispanics have higher rates of alcohol and other
drugs use than non-Hispanic, Blacks in Broward County according to the 2013 Youth Risk
Behavioral Surveillance System (YRBS) survey. Differences among Hispanics by national
origin are reflected in the ethnicity data of Broward County treatment admissions as
seen in the Needs Assessment data presented in the previous topic.
Among adults there are fewer demographic differences in risk of substance abuse and
related problems, yet all groups are at risk.

Community size and type where the activity is carried out.
While different communities in Broward County require culturally different approaches
based as much on socio-economic status as gender, age, race or ethnicity, all geographic
areas of the County are at risk.

For all treatment and prevention activities, including primary prevention, include the provider of
the services, and describe the services provided. Services provided should be the most effective
evidence-based prevention and treatment approaches, focusing on promotion, prevention and
early intervention. This service delivery environment should have the most positive impact on the
health and well-being of the persons and communities served.

It is anticipated that Federal Block Grant and State of Florida funding for behavioral
health treatment services will be available for the portion of the population below 138
percent of the poverty level and not insured. Estimates for Broward County of this
population are from epidemiological data prepared by the United Way of Broward
County’s Commission on Substance Abuse and preliminary data submitted to the
Department of Children and Families’ Behavioral Health Advisory Work Group. These
calculations are based on Broward County data from the US Census estimates for 2013,
the National Survey on Drug Use and Health Substate Data for 2008-2010 (released in
2012), and estimates of the population below 138 percent the poverty level and not
insured from the Behavioral Health Advisory Work Group for the Florida Department of
Children and Families and the American Community Survey.
Among Broward County’s total population of 1,838,844 there are an estimated 138,555

Two (2) additional levels of care were added to the substance abuse continuum of care
~ JARF and ARF. A pilot program for child welfare/behavioral health integration was
implemented as described.
Funding has been the primary challenge for the system of care. Lack of flexibility in
funding by program silos required DCF amendments to meet the needs of individuals
which caused delay in providing critical services. The service array does not include all
levels of care such as the SRT and limited number of crisis beds. Lack of housing
continues to pose a problem and a number of ALFs have been closed. Cities continue to
oppose housing for consumers of mental health services.

Provide a description of the Managing Entity’s
planning efforts and describe how the community
was engaged this process.
Provide a description of the behavioral health
service gaps, and how these priorities were
chosen.
In order to ensure all the providers had a good
understanding of the requirements of the
assignment a conference call was held. Providers
were given an opportunity to ask questions during
the conference call and they were encouraged to
call the Program Contract Manager if they had any
additional questions. Thirty-one (31) of the thirtyseven (37) providers responded.
Numerous service gaps were identified; however,
our priority service needs are:
1. A specialty Statewide Inpatient Psychiatric
(SIPP) program to address the needs of
children that are not Medicaid eligible and
have complex needs.
2. A
statewide
Short-term
Residential
Treatment (SRT) level of care in Broward
County. Broward County with a population of
1.8 million does not have an SRT.
3. Additional Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) Beds.
Broward County with a population of 1.8
million does not have sufficient CSU beds to
address its needs, specifically for the indigent
population.
T

R
D
Describe the anticipated outcomes of action and
inaction.
1. SIPP program
Outcome of action: Creating a specialty
statewide SIPP program to address the special
needs of youths will allow for appropriate
youth treatment within the State. Timely
access to this specialty SIPP program is
essential to the safety and well-being of the
child/youth, family, and the community. This
SIPP is necessary to meet the treatment needs
of the youth in our communities. This need
can be filled by the establishment of one
additional specialty SIPP facility located in
Broward County.
Outcome of Inaction: Not funding this program
will result in the continued long wait times for
SIPP placement which results in exacerbation
of symptoms which negatively impacts longterm prognosis and creates an increasingly
severely ill population at risk of suicidal and
violent behavior. This in turn will require
longer-term high-cost treatment. Children
waiting for SIPP placement increase the
utilization of crisis stabilization services.
Prepared By: SAMH
Last Update: May 2, 2014
46
2. SRT Level of Care
Outcome of action: Funding this SRT program
will result in the reduction of inappropriate
and indefinite use of jail beds for persons
requiring the SRT level of care needed to treat
their severe mental illness. At any given time,
including currently, there averages 50 persons
in jail needing this treatment. Additionally,
funding this program will reduce the number
of individuals waiting for State Hospital
placement by diverting them into the SRT.
Additionally, bringing this level of care to
Broward County will provide the needed
treatment for individuals who require this
setting to receive the treatment needed to
stabilize them so that they can be successfully
integrated into the community.
R
D
T
F
A
Outcome of Inaction: Without these services
an individual experiencing acute or sub-acute
crisis would require psychiatric hospitalization
in a Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) or in jail.
3. CSU Beds
Outcome of action: Establishing an additional
30 CSU beds for indigent consumers in
Broward County will provide appropriate
treatment settings for individuals needing this
service and go a long way toward alleviating
the overcrowding of the jails by supporting the
diversion initiative in Broward County.
Outcome of Inaction: Without these services
an individual experiencing acute or sub-acute
crisis would endanger his/her life and /or the
community. Often these individuals end up in
jail.
