Prevention and Early Intervention Sample Clauses

Prevention and Early Intervention. 8.1 The report on the Christie Commission‟s work highlights that a key objective of public sector reform should be to ensure that public service organisations prioritise prevention to reduce demand and lessen inequalities. 8.2 Within the context of Community Planning in East Ayrshire, there has been a culture of early intervention and preventative spend and a commitment over time to shifting the balance of care and resources to prevention across a range of services. The Getting it Right for Every Child (GIRFEC) programme is founded on the principles of early intervention, namely appropriate, proportionate and timely intervention, and provides a framework for putting these principles into action for all children and young people at the individual level. Similarly, we are already some way down the road to putting these principles into action within the education system through Curriculum for Excellence and within the NHS through Health for all Children. These principles also underpin work to provide More Choices and More Chances for children and young people at risk. Following a robust period of evaluation, training in respect of the Solihull Approach, an integrated psychodynamic and behavioural approach for professionals working with children and families who are affected by behavioural and emotional difficulties, has been rolled out around the five Nursery and Family Centres. 8.3 In addition, significant resources have been committed over time to diverting young people from crime and antisocial behaviour and, while no formal evaluation has been undertaken of the impact of the activity, anecdotal evidence from the police and communities points to the value of this work. Allied to this work, there has been a focus on awareness raising and education with young people in schools and community based settings in relation to the misuse of alcohol and drugs. 8.4 Within the context of Community Planning in East Ayrshire, there is a longstanding and continuing commitment to and culture of early intervention and prevention across the services delivered by Community Planning Partners. This commitment is demonstrated through the activity delivered within our communities and also by the inclusion of „the promotion of early intervention in the delivery of services‟ as a Guiding Principle of our Community Plan underpinning all of our activity. 8.5 Community Planning Partners in East Ayrshire are committed to improving outcomes and reducing future demand in our communities...

Prevention and Early Intervention. The purpose of MHSA Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) services are to reduce disparities in access to early mental health interventions due to stigma, lack of knowledge about mental health services or lack of suitability (i.e cultural competency) of traditional mainstream services. Program efforts will reduce the negative psycho-social impact of trauma and will increase prevention efforts and response to early signs of emotional and behavioral health problems among at-risk populations. Activities are to reduce stigma and discrimination impacting those at-risk of mental illness and mental health problems as well as increase public knowledge of the signs of suicide risk and appropriate actions to prevent suicide. Because there must be the intended outcome of reducing risk of serious mental illness, MHSA-funded Prevention Services DO NOT include services for the purpose of enhancing general community wellness.

Prevention and Early Intervention. Innovation The Department of Behavioral Health (DBH) has embraced the transformational concepts inherent to the MHSA to develop a community-driven, culturally competent wellness focused Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) Plan that targets individuals and families, with special attention to underserved communities. While prevention and early intervention can occur across the entire mental health intervention spectrum, the purpose of the PEI component of MHSA is to design programs at the early end of the spectrum. PEI, as a whole, works to include program participants and their families in the planning, implementing, and evaluating of PEI programs. These programs are implemented in collaboration with other systems or organizations and delivered in natural community settings. All programs link individuals in need of additional services to appropriate mental health agencies, primary care providers, grassroots organizations, or local agencies for additional services as necessary. The Military Services and Family Support (MSFS) Program is a program within the MHSA's PEI component. MSFS is categorized as both a Prevention and Early Intervention Program. MSFS provides mental health services to military service members and their families throughout San Bernardino County. The program has provided in-home screenings and assessments, case management and linkage, peer support groups, psychoeducation, and therapeutic mental health services using evidence-based practices since 2009.
