May 2014Pacific Grove, CA
Three Questions
Generally, in my community when someone hears a family has an alcohol or drug problem they believe…
Working with a family in need of alcohol or drug treatment is challenging because…
I have been successful working with a family receiving drug treatment when I …
Why are we here today
1 in 10 Americans
1 in 5 families 1 in 7 workers 1 in 20 newborns 35% of ALL school
children
1 in 8 veterans 1 in 2 homeless 1 in 4 elderly 80% of those in jail 60% of families in children and youth
services
Unmet Prevalence
In 2012, 23.1 million people aged 12 or older needed treatment for an AOD problem.
Of those, only 2.5 million received any treatment.
The System Gaps
Of the 20.6 million who needed treatment but did not receive it, only 1.1 million (5%) felt they needed it (denial gap)
Of that 1.1 million, 347,000 (31%) said they made an effort but were unable to get it (treatment gap)
753,000 (69%) reported making no effort (motivation gap).

Why are we here today
In 2005, federal, state and local government spending as a result of substance abuse and addiction was a least $467.7 billion or 10.7 % of their combined $4.4 trillion budget.
For each dollar of the $467.7 billion spent, 95.6 cents went to shoveling up the wreckage and only 1.9 cents on prevention and treatment, 0.4 cents on research, 1.4 cents on taxation or regulation and 0.7 cents on interdiction.
Impact
½ of all children (35.6 million) live in a household where a parent or other adults use tobacco, drink heavily or use illicit drugs.
13% of children under 12 live in a household where a parent or other adults use illicit drugs.
1 in 4 children under the age of 18 has a family member who abuses alcohol or has alcoholism.
Intergenerational Connections
Approximately 45% of all NYS clients admitted to being a “child of an alcoholic or substance abuser”
A child of an AOD abuser is 3 to 4 times more likely to develop AOD problems as well as negative health, educational and employment outcomes
Over 90% of all women in residential substance abuse treatment report history of child abuse and/or neglect

Risk and Protective Factors
What is a Risk Factor? Something in a person’s life that increases the chance of a problem occurring.
Risk Factors include: Availability of ATOD Family history of addiction – 4X Parental use or positive attitude toward use Other problems in the family: abuse, poverty,
domestic violence Behavior/learning problems Friends who use and think it is fun or “cool” Early use
Risk Factors in Families
• Lack of love, caring, and support
• Low expectations for children’s success and school performance
• Lack of adult supervision and severe or inconsistent discipline
• Lack of family rituals (e.g. family gatherings)
• Poor family management or communication
• Sexual and physical abuse
Risk and Protective Factors
What is a Protective Factor? Something that increases the likelihood that substance abuse can be resisted.
Protective Factors include: Relationship to an adult outside the family Involvement in activities: clubs, scouts Positive self esteem Involvement in religious activities, providing
hope, purpose, see beauty in the world, connection to Higher Power
Risk and Protective Factors
Family Protective Factors include: Strong bonds between children and parents Involvement in children’s lives Clear limits/rules with consistently enforced
consequences Clear, honest respectful communication Chores for all family members Family Rituals
Primary Conclusions
1. People were always more important than programs.
2. Often just one person made the difference.
3. Programs that helped simulated living in a healthy family.

Wellness Models Are Emerging
HEALTHY l I NOT ILL--------- l ----------ILL l l l NOT HEALTHY
A Person/Family Centered Approach
Is Strengths Based –Assumes people have abilities, capacities
Role focused, not problem focused (problems interfere with performing desired roles, diagnosis is not a role)
Promotes direction of the process by the person/family
Adopts an individualized approach to services (not a cookie cutter set of programs)
Where changes made in individual circumstances may have system wide implications that benefit others (innovations)
CMS Definition

HEALING
What Do They Need?
Caregivers: Words to share
experiences
Understanding of family disease
Time with their children for healing
Making amends and forgiveness
Children:• Words to say what
happened
• Understanding of family disease
• Time with their caregivers to heal
• Knowledge that it isn't their fault
Family engagement/involvement:Why is it important?
Because it works! Because it is the right thing to do Stakeholders are advocating for it System reforms are mandating it
Family Involvement Works
Treatments involving families result in
Higher levels of abstinence (50 vs. 30%) Fewer drug related arrests (8 vs. 28 %) Fewer inpatient episodes (13 vs. 35%)

Family engagement/involvement
Increased involvement equals increased ownership equals improved outcomes
Services can be organized on a continuum from family friendly to family focused to family centered to family driven.
Collaborative partnership of expertise, resources and experience.

Talk with the children and family members affected by alcohol and drug addicts and explain the disease and 7 Cs
I didn’t Cause it
I can’t Cure it
I can’t Control it
I can take better Care of myself:
by Communicating my feelings
making healthy Choices
by Celebrating myself.
What families must re-learn
Authority and discipline
Roles and responsibilities
Problem solving
Communication
Having fun together
Showing affection
Parent’s Support Who in your family is already supportive of your
recovery?
Who in your family is in recovery too?
Who keeps a healthy distance from family members who are not so stable?
How has your child’s caregiver been helpful in your recovery?
Who could help identify when you are headed in a negative direction? Who would see the warning signs?
How can these people help you maintain your recovery? How can you ask them for help?

RECOVERY
What is Recovery Perspective Substance dependence, while often manifested
by socially unacceptable behavior (for which there must be responsibility), is an illness. This illness can best be prevented when science is used to inform family and community-based efforts to protect and build resiliency.
The illness is best treated by early identification and intervention or, if not halted before its acute development, by a continuity of care over a lifetime that is built on measures of individual wellness and ongoing opportunities for recovery
What does the science say Millions of Americans today receive health care for mental health or substance use problems and illnesses. These conditions combined are the leading cause of disability and death among women and the second highest among men. Institute of Medicine, 2006
Treatment is effective: When given a continuum of care, relapse rates for the treatment of alcohol, opioids, and cocaine are less than those for hypertension and asthma and are equivalent to those of diabetes (all of which are also chronic illnesses). Compliance to addiction treatment is greater than compliance rates for treatment of hypertension and asthma. O’Brien and McLellan, 1996
What does science say 2
Treatment is Effective and Sustainable Addictions treatment has resulted in:
67% reduction in weekly cocaine use, 65% reduction in weekly heroin use, 52% decrease in heavy alcohol use, 61% reduction in illegal activity, and 46% decrease in suicidal ideation one year post treatment.
These outcomes are generally stable for the same clients five years post treatment.
Continuing Care is Cost Effective
A recent study of a lifetime simulation model (multiple episodes of treatment over a lifetime) shows that for every $1 spent on treatment (chronic care provided in a continuum of care) society accrues $37.72 in benefits. Zarkin et al., 2005
What does the recovery research say
Recovery Supports: Increase entry and involvement in treatment
– Moos & Moos, 2005
Can be the basis for self and peer care shown to be effective in addressing any illness requiring continuing care – Flaherty, 2006
Are often low-cost or free (such as peer-support groups, recovery mentors, recovery check-ups, et al.) – McKay, 2005
Reduce chronicity (reoccurrence/relapse) and diminish stigma – Moos & Moos, 2005

WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF
RECOVERY?
Recovery definitions Recovery from alcohol and drug problems is a process
of change through which an individual achieves abstinence and improved health, wellness, and quality of life. (CSAT 2005 National Recovery Summit)
Recovery from substance dependence is a voluntarily maintained lifestyle characterized by sobriety, personal health, and citizenship. (Betty Ford Institute, 2007)
My definition of recovery is life. Cause I didn’t have no life before I got into recovery. (Pathways study participant H.W.
42 years old African-American male)
SAMHSA’s new working definition A process of change through which individuals
improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential
Health: overcoming or managing one’s disease(s) as well as living in a physically and emotionally healthy way;
Home: a stable and safe place to live;
Purpose: meaningful daily activities, such as a job, school, volunteerism, family caretaking, or creative endeavors, and the independence, income and resources to participate in society;
Community: relationships and social networks that provide support, friendship, love, and hope.
Recovery oriented systems of care 2
Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care shifts the question from
How do we get the client into treatment? to
How do we support the process of recovery within the person’s life and
environment?
Recovery and Resilience Oriented System of Care
CLOSING THOUGHTS
The Vision
A community where all members of a family affected by alcohol and other drugs know there are knowledgeable and caring others who: understand what they are experiencing, care about them and are available, can help them find emotional and physical safety, can support their healing, health and wellness.

Opportunities and Challenges of a Lifelong Health System
Goal of system to optimize health outcomes and lower costs over much longer time horizons
Payers, including Medicare and Medicaid, increasingly responsible for care for longer periods of time
Health trajectories modifiable and compounded over time

Lifelong Health System. NEJM 2013 Apr 25; 368, 17: 1569-1571
Quality Care as Driver of Change
The next generation of measures will:Define quality as improving the life of a
person;Place functional outcomes on par with
clinical outcomes;Create measurement processes that track outcomes over time since functional needs and personal goals change
Bruce Chernof, MD, Pres and CEO The SCAN Foundation March 2014
What you can do personally Take good care of yourself, family, friends and
colleagues Learn about addiction and recovery, advocate for
system collaboration and become a change agent Define and monitor outcomes at four levels, the status
quo is not good enough Be bold, imagine a community where people live
better lives, where children are safe, healthy, happy and educated, where people achieve their aspirations
Provide hope
What we can do together
Raise awareness,
Find allies, Take action to end:
Silence Stigma Disparities
Promote the many roads to recovery
Proposed Shared Vision
A community where all are safe, healthy and well, where each has a sense of belonging, purpose and opportunities to achieve their aspirations.
