5 MST Presence Around the World 34 states in the US Australia Belgium Canada Chile Denmark England Iceland Netherlands New Zealand Northern Ireland Norway Scotland Sweden Switzerland

6 Why do we do this work? What does it mean to be a part of the MST community? Why do we each do it? Why does what we do matter? How are we doing it well?

7 Progress in the past year across current MST teams: MSTI Annual Report Data

8 Data for Jan 1-Dec 31, 2011 At Home 88% In School/Working 85% No Arrests 85% These results are based on the comprehensive review of the 12,771 cases (88% of 14,500 cases referred for treatment) that were closed for clinical reasons (i.e., completed treatment, low engagement, or placed)

16 MST - Part of Crime Reduction Initiative Driven by the President Chile Presenter: Cecilia Tijmes, Ministry of the Interior and Public Security

17 General Background Goals of the Plan Chile Seguro Reduce the percentage of households victims of crime by 15% Reduce the amount of crimes in public areas by 25%

18 Elements of Plan Chile Seguro Program of Integrated Security, 24-hour program Carabineros (Police) de Chile, coordinating with municipalities, send the program data on children and adolescents who are admitted to any police station in the country If they re a victim of crime or, If they ve committed a criminal offense Vida Nueva, ministry program created to address the lack of psychosocial services for children and adolescents identified by the PIS 24 hour program Subsecretary of Crime Prevention expanded the Vida Nueva program to 6 new comunas

19 Operational definition of the 24-hour program o System of evaluation and management of children and adolescents who reside in comunas presenting high admission of minors to police stations in the country. o The objective is to contribute to the interruption of criminal paths of children and adolescents that have committed a criminal offense for the first time or repeated behavior that violate the norms

20 Municipality: 24 Hour Program Family Court MST (High Risk) Child with Offending Behavior Risk Assessment Team Assessment of Risk Factors for Offending Specialized Intervention Program and Similar (Moderate Risk) Other Programs of Municipalities and Private Organizations (Low Risk) Municipality Programs Spontaneity Demand Juvenile Justice Programs (Probation, Community Services)

24 Process to Implement MST in Chile Phase 2: Peñalolén, Recoleta, La Granja and Lo Espejo Start of cases at the beginning of September 2012 Phase 3: San Bernardo, Maipú and Valparaíso* Start of cases on February 2013 *first comuna outside of the Santiago metropolitan area

25 Process to Implement MST in Chile Phase 4: Puerto Montt, Temuco and Los Ángeles In process of selecting the therapists and supervisors Site Assessment scheduled for the 26th, 27th and 28th of March 5 Day scheduled for week of 15 th of April

26 MST - Part of Innovative Approach Using Social Investment to Increase Funding for Effective Services Essex County, UK Presenter: Cathy James, Department of Health

27 UK/Essex social impact bonds A fixed-rate loan to Places for People Homes (a provider of affordable housing) A social impact bond to provide services to troubled families whose children are considered to be at risk of being placed in care Low risk loan combined with high risk investment = greater appeal to civic-minded investors

28 Essex faces formidable challenges Predominance of high cost residential placements Higher proportion of older adolescents with behavioral issues in care Poor parenting support in particular around managing behavior Underdeveloped early intervention and family support services Lack of higher level intensive interventions and limited resources to establish them Vicious circle: wrong service offer, young people in care unnecessarily, pressure on budgets, reducing available investment Steven H. Goldberg, February 4, 2013

29 The possibility of making a modest profit on the investment Features that make the Bond an attractive social investment: The possibility of making effective social services much more widely available to kids who really need them

30 What Private Investment in Future for Children Bonds Could Mean for the Growth of MST Possible expansion in ways that government spending and philanthropy can t provide Attractiveness of well-evidenced programs to investors Problems are only increasing over time Impact investment might work a lot better Working with new kinds of partners

31 If we want civic-minded affluent people to make a lot more money available for social purposes, they need to know they ll eventually get it back. Philanthropy is disposable; social investment is recyclable. Return Impact Steven H. Goldberg, February 4, 2013

32 SIBs and other social investments don t make money more important than helping people The only way they make any money for investors at all is if they do help people Future for Children Bonds provide a small financial incentive for investors to pay for more MST Could reduce the number of children taken from their homes and save government a lot of money Monetization creates an entirely new source of funding that doesn t compete with limited government budgets or donations Steven H. Goldberg, February 4, 2013

33 Costs in time and money of set up To ensure that investors and social finance organisations are realistic about targets for savings Challenges? To communicate the need for programme fidelity and quality assurance to a new audience To keep positive outcomes for families top of the agenda

34 Social investing has the potential to significantly change how we fund social programs

35 MST: Part of Movement to Offer Evidence-Based Interventions, Resulted in Decreased Placement Rates Pennsylvania, USA Presenter: Susan Pribyson, Community Solutions, Inc.

36 Pennsylvania (County Comparison) 8 counties that did not have any EBI from were compared to 11 counties that began the implementation of their first EBI between 2007 and Placement rates were totaled across the counties in each group. Group 1, Counties without an EBI : Bedford, Carbon, Franklin, Fulton, Lebanon, Schuylkill, Somerset, and Susquehanna Group 2, Counties beginning implementation : Allegheny, Berks, Cameron, Clarion, Elk, Forest, Lackawanna, McKean, Monroe, Pike, and Potter

37 Placements as a percent o dispositions Pennsylvania (County Comparison) Juvenile Court Placement Rates: A comparison of counties with and without an EBI No EBI during 6- year period Adopted EBI in '07,' 08, or '09

38 Pennsylvania (County Comparison) The Juvenile Justice placement rate for the two groups was comparable prior to adopting an EBI. The placement rate for counties that did not adopt an EBI dropped temporarily, but then returned to its 2005 level. There was virtually no change in placement rate from 2005 to Counties who began an EBI during the intervening years saw a 28% decrease in the rate of placements, from 10.84% in 2005 to 7.78% in There was a steady decrease over the 6-year period.

39 Placements of Youth In Care, Ages10-17, In a Restrictive Placement as of March 31 Pennsylvania (County Comparison) Children & Youth Placements: A comparison of counties with and without an EBI No EBI during 6- year period Adopted EBI in '07, '08, or '

40 Pennsylvania (County Comparison) At baseline, counties that went on to adopt an EBI had a higher rate of Children & Youth placements than the counties that did not go on to adopt an EBI From 2007 to 2008, restrictive placements decreased significantly for counties that adopted at least one EBI, then remained fairly steady. This group saw an overall decrease of 9% in restrictive placement rates, from 35.3% of youth in 2006 to 31.98% of youth in Counties choosing not to adopt an EBI saw a steady increase in the percentage of youth in restrictive placements. Over six years the placement rate increased 22%, from 30.88% to 37.90%.

41 Pennsylvania - Conclusion The number of EBI programs and the number of Pennsylvania counties implementing an EBI have grown steadily over the past 7 years. Across all placement types (Juvenile Justice, C&Y, M.A.- funded) there have been decreases in the numbers and rates of placement. As a whole, counties implementing EBIs have shown substantial decreases in placement rates while counties without EBIs have shown no change or even increases.

43 MST: Funded by Medicaid State-Wide, Resulted in Decreased Recidivism, Decreased Placement Rates and Cost Savings New Mexico, USA Presenter: David Bernstein, Center for Effective Interventions

44 New Mexico New Mexico MST Outcomes Tracking Project Description In July 2001, New Mexico s Medicaid Behavioral Health system started program to fund MST NM Children, Youth and Families Department provided funding for evaluation; conducted by Anita Saranga Coen, LCSW, Focus Research & Evaluation NM Outcomes Tracking Project began collaboration with Colorado s Center for Effective Interventions and the MST Institute Developed outcome tracking system using a specialized menu on the MSTI Enhanced Website

45 New Mexico New Mexico MST Outcomes Tracking Project Findings Tracked data from youth were served across 10 MST providers and across 23 counties The following indicators improved from admission to discharge Legal, mental health and substance abuse problems Out of home living situations Instrumental indicators of youth and family functioning

46 New Mexico New Mexico MST Outcomes Tracking Project Findings 641 youth completed MST treatment, and caregivers reported 6 and 12 month follow-up data Six- and twelve-month post discharge data demonstrated maintenance of the initial gains

47 New Mexico Substantial Cost Reductions Outcome evaluation showed substantial reductions in out of home placement and its associated costs compared to costs pre- and during MST treatment Reports from clinicians and caregivers showed over $2 million in estimated Net Benefits for the six months after discharge due to reduced use of: residential psychiatric inpatient services detention services

48 New Mexico Substantial Cost Reductions, continued New Mexico s Medicaid managed care entity reported an $8.5 million (64%) decrease in paid claims for the six months after discharge compared to the six months prior to admission to MST for: residential/group mental health psychiatric inpatient therapeutic foster care services Report is in the process of being updated through 2012 and will include all paid Medicaid claims for the period 12 months before admission to MST, during MST treatment, and for the 12 months after discharge.

50 MST: Part of Huge Initiative to Increase Use of EBP s New York City, USA Presenter: Tina Schleicher, Children s Village

51 Initiative to Increase Use of EBP s Two sides of system change

52 Phases and Initiatives through ACS (Administration for Children s Services) Initiatives have been driven by the Mayor s office in NYC ACS absorbed juvenile justice system ACS brought EBPs into their juvenile justice system: JJI and FAP initiatives

53 Phases and Initiatives through ACS Fall 2011, ACS participated in OCFS (Office of Children and Family Services) move to bring kids close to home For residents of NYC who would normally be sent to upstate correctional facilities, some out-of-state Now these youth will be sent to residential facilities in NYC, then aftercare, SIB Funded EBPs for this aftercare post placement - still in process of being set-up Currently ACS is bringing EBPs into general prevention work within child protection

54 Unique Opportunity for Collaboration Around EBP s Collaboration between many participants: ACS and OCFS MST providers and Network Partners (Children s Village, Evidence-Based Services, University of Washington, and MST Services) in NYC New York City Implementation Support Center hosted by New York Foundling, funded by EBP developers and providers MST Services

55 Current State of MST in New York City 26 MST teams currently in operation in New York City 20 MST-SA 2 MST-Psych 2 MST-FIT 2 Blue Sky

56 ACS Massive Investment Voluntary conversion of existing contracts to EBPs (called the Expression of Interest funding) $ value unknown Teens Services RFP - $22+ million for city-wide implementation of EBPs and promising models Will include 8 MST-SA teams and 8 MST-CAN teams Largest consolidated roll out of EBPs under one initiative EVER!

57 ACS Now in Huge Re-Organization Bound to have a big impact on ACS MST Services providing input into re-writing processes and standards Bottom Line: Huge investment, and huge number of kids/families impacted

58 MST: Part of Large-Scale, Nation-Wide Social Change Effort to Enhance Family- Focused Treatments Norway Presenter: Bernadette Christensen, The Norwegian Center for Child Behavioral Development

59 Norway: Nation-Wide Implementation First nation-wide implementation of MST MST implementation in Norway started in 1999 First 4 teams were part of an RCT to evaluate MST in the Norwegian context Decision to implement MST across the country was made before RCT was finished, as part of a social change effort driven by the Ministry of Children and Family Affairs By 2003, there were 25 MST teams across the country

66 Adaptations of MST: Expanding the Family of MST Interventions Scott Henggeler

67 Usual Adaptation Process 1) Idea Targets costly and multidetermined problem of youth for which effective and efficient interventions are not available. 2) Pilot/feasibility study Includes specification of model adaptations and assesses whether they are feasible. 3) Efficacy trial Determines whether desired outcomes can be achieved under favorable implementation conditions. 4) Effectiveness trial Determines whether desired outcomes can be achieved under real world implementation conditions. 5) Transportability pilots Involves transport to multiple settings under close adaptation developer oversight to work out bugs. 6) Mature transport MST Services and Network Partners take the lead in transport efforts. 7) Proactive dissemination e.g., marketing, lobbying
