Harris Acting City Manager 300 West Ash, PO Box 736 Salina, Kansas 67402-0736 Dear Mr. Harris; The "Foundation" respectfully requests that a meeting of the Mayor's Adivsory committee on Alcohol be called to review our request for Special Alcohol Tax Funds for the year of 1988. Based on the "estimated distributions for calendar year 19M8 of Local Alcoholic Liquor FundI' as projected by the State Treasurer, our funding requests are as follows: Total $14,000.00 18,000.00 13,000.00 $45,000.00 Family Counseling Adolescent Interfention Court Program On behalf of the Foundation, I wish to thank you and the Committee for past support and for consideration of this request. Should you require more information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Enclosed are narrative reports of the above programs. Sincerely, r1 r /1 J. Scott Boga rt, SCADC Executive Director JSB/blg Enclosure cc: Robert R. Biles File BOARD OF DIRECTORS Dick Blackwell, President Jack Ropp, Vice-President Ross Schimmels, Secretary Scott Price, Treasurer Connie Achterberg Beverly Cole, Jim Foley, Fr, Willys Neustrom, Glen Rhea, Catherine Roberts, Nancy Roderick, Jack Stewart J, Scott Bogart, Executive Director FUNDED BY MEMBERSHIP CONTRIBUTIONS, CLIENT FEES, UNITED WAY 1 CENTRAL KANSAS FOUNDATION Request for City Local Alcoholic Liquor Funds to support the Foundation's alcohol programs. 1. Adolescent Intervention Program (AlP): This program is designed to identify and assess that part of the student population harmfully involved with alcohol and other drugs. A confidential interview with the student and the parent(s), including written testing of the student, helps to determine the gravity of the problem and possible resolution of the problem. The evaluation helps to determine the best resources to be used in addressing the problems which are experienced by the adolescent and the family because of the use/abuse of alcohol and other drugs. If warranted, a recommendation is made to the student and parent(s) for a more formalized program for creacment referral to an inpatient treatment unit. The opportunity to follow the recommendations of the counselor is the perogative of the student and parent(s). In previous years, the Foundation contracted with V.S.D. 305 to provide this service to all junior and senior high students and their families. This contract provided approximately 38% of the funds required with the Foundation absorbing the balance of the financial responsibility for the complete program. However, effective July 1, 1986, V.S.D. 305 adopted a "fee for service" policy, providing support only for students referred by the school system, paying up to $100 per evaluation. The Foundation continues to make the AlP available to adolescents and family members referred by other sources; however, utilizes other community support in doing so. This request for funds meets with the requirements for Section 5, paragraphs A, Band C of Resolution #80-3473. We request for this project $18,000. 2. Family Counseling Program: When one person in a family is experiencing distress or problems with which they have difficulty in coping, it is usually found that the entire family is affected. In the case when one family member is harmfully involved with alcohol or other drugs, every other family member living with them is also adversely affected. This is a family disease. No one in the family escapes untouched. Family counseling is offered at the Foundation to help families work through their living problems. Guidance and direction is given so they may assume responsibility for themselves, and deal with issues over which they have control anq to accept themselves as worthwhile human beings. Often the individual and/or family which is recovering from the ravages of chemical dependency have issues they need to address after the one who has been harmfully involved is no longer using alcohol and drugs. Life does not automatically right itself with the cessation of chemical abuse. The Family Counseling offered at the Foundation can assist those wno wish their lives to refocus 2 and take a new, more positive direction. The Foundation absorbs over fifty ~ercent of the budget for this program. Partial funding from Salina United Way and client fees constitute the other fifty percent. While Saline County Revenue Sharing funds have helped subsidize che Family Counseling Program in the past, the Foundation has not been a recipient of the limited funds since 1984. Many clients seeing the Family Counselor are nonemployed members of the family, thus would not be able to afford this counsel- ing were it not available at the Foundation. This program also offers counseling with parents and other family members of adolescents. This request for funds meets with the requirements for Section 5, paragraphs A, Band C of Resolution #80-3473. We request for this project $14,000. 3. The Court Referral Program: Since 1974, the Foundation has worked cooperatively with the Municipal and District Courts in Salina. The program provides the courts, including judges, attorneys, probation/parole officers, and the law enforcement officials a referral service for persons charged with alcohol/drug related crimes. These include, but are not limited to charges of assault, burglary, family abuse, and driving under the influence. Initially we offer an evaluacion based on: the client's history, their harmful involvement with alcohol and other drugs, the results of tests administered at the Foundatioh and the counselor's observations of the client. Based on these findings the client will be directed to a counseling service such as those offered by the Foundation or other agencies for outpatient counseling. In some cases the need for concentrated therapy is indicated and we have available to us many inpatient facilities to which we may refer the client. One of the services offered at the Foundation, unique in this geographical area, is the Alcohol/Drug Information School. This is a basic education course presented to those people who are referred from the court on a DUI Charge. Meeting in two and one-half hour sessions for four weeks, this series advocates to those who do not have a drinking problem the choice of a more responsible manner of socializing rather than an abusive one. Film, video tapes, guest speakers from the judicial system, medical community and law enforcement officials are included in the presentations during this month-long school. We find that recidivism is greatly reduced in the courts for those who have attended the school. The Foundation in June, 1983, was designated by the District Court of the 28th Judicial District: "as certified by the court as a local ASAP program as defined by Sub. H.B. 2132, 1983 Kansas Legislature." As a part of this certification by the Court, the Foundation is responsible for services provided to the indigent: "However, no payment shall be made to the Foundation for its ser- vices to those cases where the person to be assessed has been found 3 to be indigent. The Foundation will, however, perform the requested services allowed by law in indigent cases." The Foundation must budget for another counseling position for this program to effectively service the Courts. Since 1983, the Court Referral Program has worked very closely with the police department regarding juvenile offerlders involved with alcohol and other drugs. In almost all cases our work with the younger offender has been done in close cooperation with the Juvenile Section of the Court Services. Since 1984 funding for this program was through Salina and Saline County Local Alcoholic Liquor Funds and Alcohol/Drug Inform- ation School fees, with the balance of the cost being absorbed by the Foundation. The Foundation has not been a recipient of the Saline County Revenue Sharing Funds since 1984. Request for funds ¡neet with the requirements of Section 5, paragraphs A and B of Resolution # 80-3473. We request for this project $13,000. CENTRAL KANSAS FOUNDATION REQUEST FOR ALL PROJECTS TOTALS: $45,000.
