Robert St. St. Paul, MN 55101 Dear 1VIs. Tracy: The inception of the Mobile Crisis Team in 1993 created an opportunity for the Saint Paul Police Department and the Saint Paul Youth Service Bureau to work together to develop an innovative program which provides mental health services to families in crisis. The mission of the Saint Paul Police Department is: "The Saint Paul Police Department will become more reflective of and more responsive to the community we serve." This statement reflects the commitment the department has made to the concept of community policing and to the citizens of Saint Paul. Community policing recognizes that police departments and communities must work together to solve problems before they lead to serious crime. This project is unique in that it is a true collaboration between government and a private non- profit agency. By working together, the needs of youth and families in crisis can be met as they learn alternate ways of resolving problems. The Mobile Crisis Team has had measurable success as demonstrated by the decrease in calls for police service to the homes which have received services; the number of youth and families who have received counseling; and the number of families requesting follow up services to address their problems. The department.has committed resources to the Mobile Crisis Team since its inception, an�i will continue to offer its full support and commitment to this effective alternative to serving the needs of the citizens of Saint Paul.

Page 5 , , q,� - I�-3` PROJECT NARRATIVE The Mobile Crisis Team was piloted in October 1993 as a collaboration between the St. Paul Police Department, Ramsey County Community Human Services and the St. Paul Youth Service Bureau. This project reaches out to St. Paul families in crisis by providing teams of staff that respond in the home to provide intervention, mediation, planning, referral assistance and follow-up. With the passage of Minnesota's Comprehensive Mental Health Act of 1989, the Ramsey County Local Advisory Committee for Children's Mental Health(LAC)was formed. This citizens advisory committee was developed to provide consumer input into the children's mental health system in Ramsey County. The first priority defined by the LAC was the need to develop crisis intervention services for children and their families in order to improve access to mental health services. In order to develop services to address this priority issue, a planning committee of the Local Coordinating Council for Children's Mental Health was formed which included personnel from Ramsey County Community Human Services, local hospitals, parents, community based agencies, schools, and law enforcement. This committee was given the task of designing crisis services for children and families that would eventually be implemented throughout Ramsey County. Working across professions was crucial to the development of a service that fit the needs of families in Ramsey County. Community leaders of color advised the group to provide mobile services rather than site-based services to increase usage b�communities of color. Law enforcement professionals provided the group with the perspective that police officers are often the first professionals to respond to a family in crisis. It became evident that officers could be one of the gatekeepers in identifying families in need of access to children's mental health services by partnering with the mobile crisis team staff. An important factor that affected the planning process was the St. Paul Police Department's commitment to community policing. Community policing is defined as"a philosophy of cooperation with and service to the community. It recognizes that police departments and communities must work together to solve problems in the neighborhoods before they�lead to serious crime." � Many efforts to implement community policing strategies, such as"cops walking the beat" tend to focus on public crime. The fastest growing area of police calls in St. Paul is "domestic calls for service"(from just over 4,000 in 1982 to over 14,000 in 1994, see enclosed map). For this reason, the St. Paul Police Department was committed to this planning as a community policing strategy for dealing with this issue. As Lieutenant Richard Gardell of the St. Paul Police Department has written, "Traditional police efforts in family crisis intervention only allow police officers to spend a short time at the scene of the family crisis and involve few, if any, options that provide a plan for the family to resolve the issues causing the crisis... St. Paul's mobile crisis team was developed to , �C, _� a�G remedy some of the shortcomings of the traditional police approach to crisis intervention by providing a comprehensive approach that would give troubled families a fair chance of addressing the issues causing the crisis." (Gardell and Larson, "Juvenile Justice Update, ApriVNlay 1995, see enclosed article) � Other risk indicators of the need for a service such as the mobile crisis team are: • From 1991 to 1994, the number of youth reported as runaways to the St. Paul Police Department (usually as a result of a family crisis) increased from 2,684 to 4,185: • A Wilder Research Center statewide survey of homeless youth in 1991 indicated that 62% of homeless youth had a history of institutionalization or placement outside of the home, which indicates that as youth are placed out of the home, whether for treatment, criminal activity, or abuse, the ability of the family to resume care of that youth in the home seems to be further eroded. • The St. Paul Police Department reports that overall juvenile arrests in 1994 were up � 35% over 1993. • In a report prepared by the Minnesota Department of Education, one out of four students in public schools in Ramsey County report either having been victims of seacual and/or physical abuse, or having witnessed violence in their homes. The Mobile Crisis Team specifically recognizes that family crises, which result from a variety of causes(i.e. poor parenting skills; drug/alcohol abuse; mental illness; lack of community support for families, particularly families of adolescents; and recent immigration and cultural conflicts between generations), often result in negative outcomes for the young person involved. Some of these negative outcomes include running away(or � being ejected from the home) school failure, out of home placement, drug and alcohol abuse, physicaUemotional abuse, and involvement with the juvenile justice system. It is for this reason that the Mobile Crisis Team services were developed to intervene with the family in the home to assist the family in getting through the crisis and developing the skills necessary to continue functioning as a family. When a request for Mobile Crisis Team services is made by a police officer, staff respond in the family home within 90 minutes of the initial call. The team arrives at the family home and will get a brief description of the situation from the officer who placed the inifial call. If the family is able to meet as a group, the team will generally initiate a family meeting that involves as many members as possible. In more conflictual situations, the team will split the family members up in an effort to calm the situation and move toward mediation. The family is encouraged to identify goals toward resolving the immediate crisis and these goals are written up and signed by staff and parents. This"Crisis Assistance Plan" is then given to the family and a copy is shared with the referring police officer. In all cases, a next day follow-up call is made to the family to ensure adherence to the plan and to check on the status of the family. Short-term family support services (2-8 family . , �,� - �a�� meetings)can be scheduled and/or referral assistance is provided. A one month follow-up visit with all families is offered to inquire about the possible need for further services. As part of the crisis assistance plan, staff can provide temporary shelter for youth at Arlington House, a shelter program operated through contract with Ramsey County. Youth are placed in temporary shelter when(1) a time away from home combined with family reunification services is an identified need by both the youth and parent/guardian or, (2) remaining in the home poses a danger to the youth. While the Mobile Crisis Team is available to families with children from birth to seventeen years of age, during 1995, 74% of the identified clients in the families served were 10-15 years old. The recent report by the Carnegie Council on Adolescent Development titled "Great Transitions" asserts that both the developmental challenges and the efficacy of intervention with this age group is as significant as that for children from birth to five years. They further assert that"Compared to families with young children, families with ' adolescents are neglected in community programs and public policies... Although an industry of books, videos, and experts exists for parents with young children, much less information is available to parents with adolescent children." Because of this lack of attention, families with adolescent children often find themselves in crisis as parenting skills are inadequate to cope with the challenges of parenting adolescents. An indication of this is that it is well documented that adalescents are subjected to physical abuse at rates higher than young children(though less often to the point of injury or lethality). The Mobile Crisis Teams intervene in these crisis situations to provide families with the skills to get beyond the crisis and to provide pazents with information and support in their efforts to parent their children. Traditionally in St. Paul, if police officers called to a home were not able to resolve a conflict or issue quickly between a youth and parent, the response was often to place the youth in a county shelter. These services make it possible for the officer to provide assistance to the family in the home and thus avoid out of home placements and county involvement. (MCT placed less that 5% of the youth served in 1995) The Mobile Crisis Team will achieve the following service objectives: - :. • 350 families per year will receive crisis intervention services, • 60% of families will be provided with in home crisis intervention within 90 minutes of the initial referral, • 90% of families will develop a crisis assistance plan at the first visit, • 80% of families will receive a next day follow-up telephone call, • 25% of families will participate in a one month follow-up visit, • 30% of families will participate in 2-8 family support meetings, • Less than 10%of youth served will be placed in temporary shelter as part of the crisis assistance plan. � � �I;� -� a�c. The Mobile Crisis Team will achieve the following client outcomes: • 90% of the youth served will be living in the family home six month following termination of services, • 80% of the youth served will not have run away from home in the six months following ternunation of services, • 90% of the youth served will report no anests in the six months following termination of services, • 75% of the youth served will be attending school regularly six months following termination of services. The Mobile Crisis Team is staffed by 7.25 Family Crisis Workers who provide access to services from 2:00 p.m. until 12:00 midnight seven days per week. In addition, staff provide telephone crisis counseling and referral when the MCT is not available. A full time program manager provides program coordination with the collaborative partners, staff � supervision and program development. This project is a collaboration with Ra.msey County Community Human Services, the St. Paul Youth Service Bureau and the St. Paul Police Department. Members of the collaborative planned, implemented and continue to work together to manage and improve the program. The Mobile Crisis Team services are a part of a continuum of family crisis intervention services recently developed by the Ramsey County Children's Mental Health Local Coordinating Council. In addition to this project, children's mental health professionals are available for telephone counseling/referral through Ramsey County staff during the daytime hours and through the Red Cross Emergency Social Services evenings, overnights and weekends. These mental health professionals refer families to the Mobile Crisis Team when necessary and provide clinical consultation to MCT staff as needed. Ramsey County contributes approximately 50% of the funds necessary to provide MCT services. The St. Paul Youth Service Bureau's mission is"To intervene early with youth and families in high risk situation in order to prevent youth involvement in the juvenile justice system." Their contribution to the collaboration is to hire, train anzt-supervise staff of the Mobile Crisis Team and to meet regulaxly with collaborative partners in planning and ' improving the service. The St. Paul Police Department participates as a collaborative partner by providing an officer from each team(three total) to coordinate services with the Mobile Crisis Team Program Manager, by allowing MCT staff to present information and training at roll call meetings, by allowing MCT staff to participate in ride-a-longs with officers and by referring families who need this type of intervention. In addition, since the program's inception in October 1993, the St. Paul Police Department has written six grant proposals to fund the service and received a total of$125,000 from those proposals. � � � � � �`- �a��c. , .. . . . . . . . . 1: • .� �• . • . � . •s •.' :� : . . • '' . � • . � . .�• • . .., �, •, • . • : • '• •• y • • �'�I � • � •� ��� • 1 • �� S � i� � • • . � �• : �� !� ;��i .��• •• � � •�• f � � .+ {`• . • � � • •• V'�iw � � •. �� f�• • . � �i: •�� ... �� .. ,. : 5 i. � ..• " • • . . . . . � � �-. . •• . �.: . _ ' : • . 1• • �ti. . • � ±. •:a�;;�. k • � • ����' � .� �'�� •� • • • � � •��t1i • •�� • •�� �• � •�.''� � .�. �. ����_ �� • i •• ,� .� �� h�� v: = W f �4 • ' U .l y�V� �r� �� ��ef{ • • I y l�• y-x, .� ,���ti � � �y��_Y. •�}• > �.����� ~r • w � � • •� •' 1 } �ti � W • . :! _ 'i�" . .. �;, � y� �� • .� . • �} ��4 � 1.' !.'' � ' • , �" �• � � t�.. • � . .� �S � �. �. !,�t'� l '�,�M 1..���,jS1.�'� 1r�fy� ,�w f: :�� O CO �� • � � � � �� !.�{�„y LL. �.} f'�� �. � • �.�� • � • � �Y �.

It ha.s allowed ue to provide a mental health oriented in-home crisis responae to tamilies and chilCren who have often not been well served by �ither the tradiCional mental health systom, or by juveaile justice. Ramsey County will continue their funding of the MCT at current levela for the foreseeable future. However, due to recent loss of some of the other MCT funding we are expecting some decrease in the service that tirill ba available through the MCT. Since the project is collaboratively funded, a loss of any of the funding source6 results in decreased service for all partners . We are coaunitted to supporting and, when possible, expanding this service model . We strongly support the Youth Service Bureau's application for additional funding for the MCT.

This project is a unique collaborative effort between Ramsey � County Community Human Services, the St. Paul Youth Service Bureau and the St. Paul Police Department. The Mobile Crisis Team services provide in-home family crisis intervention in an effort to prevent negative outcomes for youth and provide support to parents. Initiated in 1993, the service has proven successful both in terms of outcomes for the families served but also in terms of the cooperation among various professionals to provide better services to families in St. Paul. The St. Paul Youth Service Bureau supports this application for funding of the project and will continue to work with our partners to ensure the highest quality services to families in crisis.
