Time to Amplify Positive Outcomes
Criticized for: • Traumatizing (Bazelon, 2016)• Making youth worse , producing “iatrogenic effects” (Dodge,
Dishion & Lansford, 2006; Rhule, 2005)• Resulting in 20-40% of youth showing no improvement or
deteriorate (Walter & Petr, 2007)Essential Elements Supporting Positive Outcomes not Recognized:• Result in improvement in the first 90 days but maintenance of gains
depends on family involvement (Hair, 2005; Noftle et al., 2011; Walter & Petr, 2007) the discharge environment, and aftercare supports (Frensch & Cameron, 2002; Behrens & Satterfield, 2006; Ontario Centre for Excellence for Child and Youth Mental Health, 2012).

THINK ABOUT:
Your state - What are the strengths of residential programs serving children and families specific to ensuring long-term positive outcomes for youth and families served?
What are 1 or 2 current practice strengths of your residential programs?

Important CA RBS Study Findings• The negative relationship between the total number of
RBS placement changes and achieving permanency is highly significant, indicating that the chance of achieving permanency decreased by 84% with each additional placement. In addition, the chance of achieving permanency decreased by 28% with every additional month of a youth’s average length of stay in an RBS placement.
• The chance of completing RBS decreases by 15% with every additional month of a youth’s stay in an RBS placement, based on average length of stay, and the chance of completion decreases by 66% with each additional placement.

Key Elements of Practice ModelCollaborative Intensive Bridging ServicesSM – CIBS• Builds Collaborative Partnerships between:
Case Manager, Family Therapist, Child and Family, and RTC
• Ecology is the target of intervention not just the family
• CIBS is a 3 Phase Intensive Systemic In-home Therapy Model Integrated with a 30 day Residential placement▫ Phase 1: Initial engagement and assessment of family and child
in-home, 2 to 4 weeks▫ Phase 2: Intensive RTC services, continuation of intensive in-
home and RTC therapy 30-45 days, child has home visits so family can practice skills being learned in RTC
▫ Phase 3: Intensive in-home therapy with child home

Key Elements of Practice Model• CIBS is not RTC as usual – RTC focus during Phase 2 30
days is on:▫ Skills Practice not Mastery▫ Intense Family Focus▫ Frequent Home Time▫ Co-Therapy with Child and Family with Family Therapist and
RTC Therapist▫ 3 Staffing within 30 days with all partners and child and
family.• Same Family Therapist stays with the family from
beginning to closing through all 3 phases of CIBS, Family Therapist has 5 to 7 weekly contacts

Damar: Practice Improvement
Definition of “Recidivism”
During the 5-years post “discharge”from the residential care setting,
the youth is not placed in a similar or higher level of care.

Damar: Now We Know!
Our job is not to cure kids but rather to help kids and their families negotiate the basic tasks of everyday life.
“Residential treatment” should be oriented not so much around removing problems kids bring to care but toward establishing conditions that allow children and families to manage symptoms and crises more effectively at home and in the community.

Do You Take Big Steps? Small Steps?
• Take Any Step! All Steps Count
• A Number of Family-Driven & Youth-Guided Practices Have Been Identified That Support Better Outcomes
![Page 71: Overview of the National Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) (combined... · Residential Programs vs. Damar Services (BBI implementer) with ranges from 3-15% Lengths of Stay – Children/Youth](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022071004/5fc0c5d979128a009b0de264/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Steps Being Taken in Other Places
• Using BBI documents to provide guidance to residential and community providers
• Holding regional and/or statewide BBI forums
• Rewriting regulation/licensing standards and policies based on BBI principles/practices
• Developing BBI teams and developing plans for state-specific projects
• Revising fiscal strategies to support replication of BBI informed program models
![Page 72: Overview of the National Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) (combined... · Residential Programs vs. Damar Services (BBI implementer) with ranges from 3-15% Lengths of Stay – Children/Youth](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022071004/5fc0c5d979128a009b0de264/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Consistent Challenges Faced
• Most Medicaid rules/regulations & state/county/city agency regulations/licensing/contracts do not have best practice expectations and often have practices contra-indicated for effective outcomes
• All systems (e.g., MH; CW; JJ; Education) not supportive (or equally supportive) of focus on reunification/working with family in home or community
• No urgency for Permanency Focus • Insufficient community based resources & supports
![Page 73: Overview of the National Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) (combined... · Residential Programs vs. Damar Services (BBI implementer) with ranges from 3-15% Lengths of Stay – Children/Youth](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022071004/5fc0c5d979128a009b0de264/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Consistent Challenges Faced
• Many residential program leaders do not really understand, believe in, and/or do not have effective practices to engage families or promote family-driven care and/or youth-guided care
• Push back by residential providers/state residential associations which do not have sufficient knowledge/supports or other challenges (i.e. SC)
• Push for trauma-informed care & evidence-based practices sometimes inconsistent with best practices that correlate to sustained positive outcomes post-discharge (e.g., TF-CBT; no EBT for residential; Sanctuary)
![Page 74: Overview of the National Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) (combined... · Residential Programs vs. Damar Services (BBI implementer) with ranges from 3-15% Lengths of Stay – Children/Youth](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022071004/5fc0c5d979128a009b0de264/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Strategies to Address Challenges
• James Whittaker: “I have more faith in a whole cloth approach where we start with a set of principles, change theory, structure and then select a limited array of key interventions to implement it …. This seems to me more consistent with what successful non-TRC EBP’s such as Multi-systemic Therapy and Multi-Dimensional Treatment Foster Care have done, than simply an approach that aggregates ever greater numbers of EBP’s in a residential setting.”

“You never change things by fighting existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the
old model obsolete.”- Buckminster Fuller

Issues To Pay Attention To• Maslow’s Hierarchy (i.e. acuity issues must be
addressed first – example of hiring multiple family advocates but program toxic with R/S)
• Watch out for ALL models of care (e.g., Sanctuary; PEM; Love & Logic) “Is it about the program or about the youth?” and Evidence-based Practices (i.e. TF-CBT)
• Only models identified to date that are consistent with research on FDC & YGC & TIC: Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (formerly known as Collaborative Problem Solving, Greene) and Trauma Systems Therapy (Saxe)
• Need leadership expertise in Culture Change (i.e. Six Core Strategies©)

Top 5 To Expect*
in the next 3-5 years
1. Expect less money from local, state and federal governments.
2. Expect service purchasers to want to buy results and not services.
3. Expect an emphasis on durable results that can be sustained for 6 – 12 months post-residential discharge.
4. Expect movement from child-centered to family-focused service delivery.
5. Expect faster moves toward permanency for children not returning home.
* From Tom Woll’s 40 Trends Report, January 2014
