Wraparound Initiative Report Presented to Governor
December 6, 2007
Today marked an important event in the transformation of the
systems that provide services and supports to children and
adolescents with emotional, behavioral or substance abuse
related needs and their families. The Statewide Wraparound
Initiative Report was presented to the Governor today, this
report creates a road map for strategic change that capitalizes
on Oregon's strengths and best practices from around the state.
Please read the report closely, share with your community
partners, and use the information broadly. The opportunity
to develop an integrated system of supports and services is
right in front of us.

The 2008
Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant
is now available on line at: http://www.oregon.gov/DHS/addiction/docs/sapt2008blockgrant-app.pdf
The SAPT block grant is completed annually. This year, it became
mandatory for all states and territories to report National
Outcome Measures (NOMS). Most of the NOMS were pre-populated
with data from national data systems. The SAPT block application
includes information on how AMH is meeting the federal
requirements associated with this funding and general information
about the prevention, treatment and recovery systems including
current and future initiatives. |
