Allegany Speaks – Community Health Improvement Portal

Public Group Active 1 day, 23 hours ago

A collaborative local network designed to ensure every student and family has access to high quality behavioral health and “wraparound” support services. We operate using the Collective Impact Model, meaning we bring together schools, behavioral health providers, and community agencies to work toward one goal: The well-being of out you.

Our Three Primary Roles:
* We act as the central link between service providers and local school systems. We ensure that services are not duplicated and that they align with the specific needs of the schools.
*We manage the grant funding from the Maryland Community Health Resource Commission (CHRC) and distribute funding to local services providers (our “spokes”) who deliver care directly to the students.
* We collect and analyze data to make sure our programs run smoothly. We ensure providers use Evidence-based Programs (EBPs)-interventions proven by sceinec to help children with anxiety, depression, trauma, etc.

The CSP coordinate a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) to meet students wherever they are in their mental health journey.
The Services We Support:
*Tier 1 (Universal)-School wide programs such as stress management workshops and bullying prevention.
*Tier 2 (Early Intervention)-Targeted support for students with emerging concerns, such as small group counseling or mentoring.
*Tier 3 (Intensive Treatment)-One on one therapy, crisis intervention, and specialized family support for those with the highest needs.
