§ 7319. Evaluation Criteria for Crisis Stabilization, Crisis Residential Treatment, and Mobile Crisis Support Teams.
(A) Project proposes new or expanded Crisis Stabilization, Crisis Residential Treatment and/or Mobile Crisis Support Team Programs to be funded by the Grant, describes the services within the Programs, and clearly identifies the Target Population(s), including age group(s), to be served. (Maximum 5 points)
(C) Project increases capacity for community-based Mental Health Crisis Services. The Application shall identify the number of Crisis Stabilization and Crisis Residential Treatment beds that will be added and/or the number of Mobile Crisis Support Teams including the number of Mobile Crisis Support Team vehicles and staff that will be added; and how the added beds and/or team(s) impact the Target Population(s) and translates into a number of additional Children and Youth that can be served in the community. (Maximum 6 points)
(D) Project expands and improves timely access to community-based Mental Health Crisis Services. The Application shall address how access is expanded and improved for the community. Examples include: extending hours of existing services; adding locations where services can be accessed by Children and Youth, as appropriate, and their family members; efforts to timely connect Children and Youth to crisis services from hospitals, educational institutions, detainment centers, juvenile hall, jail, etc.; engaging in new outreach to Children and Youth, as appropriate, and their families, and educational institutions so they know new or expanded services are available; and addressing cultural, language, and other barriers unique to the community. (Maximum 6 points)
(E) Project is qualitatively different from crisis services delivered in an institutional setting (such as a hospital emergency room, an in-patient hospital setting or a law enforcement vehicle) and clearly describes the proposed staffing, the community setting in which the Programs will be offered and the building or vehicles in which services will be provided. (Maximum 5 points)
(A) Project fits in with the continuum of care as it presently exists in the community. The Application identifies the shortcomings that exist within the continuum and how the Project will improve the existing continuum of care for Children and Youth utilizing Mental Health Crisis Services, including whether Applicant contemplates submitting an application to the Mental Health Oversight and Accountability Commission or has been awarded funding for triage personnel. (Maximum 5 points)
(B) Application identifies working relationships with Related Supports that already exist and which will be established to enhance and expand community-based collaboration designed to maximize and expedite access to crisis services for the purpose of avoiding unnecessary hospitalization and detainment by law enforcement and improving wellness for Children and Youth with mental health disorders and their families. The existing working relationships shall be supported by letters from the Related Supports identifying the collaborative efforts amongst the agencies to enhance and expand crisis services. For example, an enhancement may include training of local law enforcement, current crisis providers, hospitals and other related providers on how to properly respond to Children and Youth experiencing a mental health crisis. (Maximum 10 points)
(vii) The value of the Program(s), such as mitigation of costs to the county, law enforcement, or hospitals. An example of such value is: The utilization of Crisis Residential Treatment costs “X” dollars and utilization of inpatient hospitalization would have cost “X” dollars, therefore value approximates “X” dollars. (Maximum 1 point)
(i) Address, renderings and/or floor plans of Project site, if available. If a Project site has not been identified, a description of the process, criteria for selection, and timeline for identification of Project site that will be utilized.
