Request for City Local Alcoholic Liquor Funds to support the Foundation's alcohol
programs.
Adolescent Intervention Program (AIP):
1.
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 problern 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 recommenda-
tion is made to the student and parent(s) for a more formalized program for
treatment 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 U.S.D. 305 to provide
this service to all Junior and Senior High students and their fainilies. This
contract provided approximately 38% of the funas required with the Foundation
absorbing the balance of financial responsibility for the complete program.
However, effective July 1, 1986, U.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, B, and C of Resolution #80-3473. We request for this project $18,000.
Family Counseling Program:
2.
When one (1) person in a family is experiencing distress or problems with
which they have difficulty in coping, it is usually found the entire family is
affected. In the case when one (1) 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
and to accept themselves as worthwhile human beings.
Often the individual and/or family that 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 automati-
cally right itself with the cessation of chemical abuse. The Family Counseling
offered at the Foundation can assist those who wish their lives to refocus and
take a new, more positive direction.
The Foundation absorbs over fifty percent (50%) of the budget for this
CENTRAL KANSAS FOUNDATION
-2-
program. Partial funding from the Salina United Way and client fees constitute
the other fifty percent (50%). While Saline County Revenue Sharing funds have
helped subsidize the Family Counseling Program in the past, the Foundation has
not been a recipient of the limited funds since 1984.
~1any clients seeing the Family Counselor are nonemployed members of the
family, thus would not be able to affort this counseling 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, B, and C of Resolution #80-3473. We request for this project $514,000.00.
The Court Referral Program:
3.
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 evaluation based on: the client's history, their
harmful involvement with alcohol and other drugs, the results of tests adminis-
tered at the Foundation, 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 avail-
able 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 (2~) hour sessions for four (4) weeks, this series
advocates to those who do not have a drinking problem the choice of a more
responsible rnanner of socializing rather than an abusive one. Film, video tapes,
guest speakers from the judicial systern, medical community, and law enforcement
officials are included in the presentations during this ¡,¡onth-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 certifi-
cation by the Court, the Foundation is responsible for services provided to the
indigent: "However, no payment shall be made to the Foundation for its services
to those cases where the person to be assessed has been found 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.

police department regarding juvenile offenders involved with alcohol and other
drugs. In allnost all cases our work with the younger offender has been done in
