Lu, MD, MS, MPH Associate Administrator, Maternal and Child Health Bureau August 22, 2012 Goal of the Combating Autism Act Initiative (CAAI) Enable all infants, children and adolescents who have, or are at risk for developing, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and other developmental disabilities to reach their full potential by: Developing a system of services that includes screening children early for possible ASD and other developmental disorders; Conducting early, interdisciplinary, evaluations to confirm or rule out ASD and other developmental disorders; and, Three Program Areas Autism Training State Intervention DBP Implementation Research LEND Providing evidence based, early interventions when a diagnosis is confirmed.

Particularly in areas of access! 3
14 Supporting Families and Communities: Systems Change Through the Development of an Autism Oversight Team Pat Osbourn, MA, CCC/SLP Deputy Director, Center for Development and Disability, UNM Context for Project In Fall, 2010, NM s single behavioral health entity, Optum Health, began a push to return children to home and communities given high costs of RTCs Advocates, including CDD/Autism Programs, expressed concerns that communities were not equipped to successfully support these individuals A University Center For Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Purpose Of AOT Pilot project for discharging children/youth with challenging behaviors + ASD from Residential Treatment Facilities. Autism Oversight Team was charged with: Provision of intensive discharge planning for five individuals with ASD Collection and reporting about barriers to home/community supports Make recommendations for policy change. Team Membership: Medical Assistance Division Optum Health Developmental Disabilities Services Division Department of Health Office of Behavioral Support Office of Eligibility Public Education Department Children, Youth and Families Department CDD/Autism Programs Individual cases included parents, guardians, case workers, staff from RTCs, local school district personnel and others Mediator/facilitator AOT Meetings Group met at least twice per month (6-10 hours/month). Participation of state agency representatives was supported by use of phone conferencing when necessary. Facilitator sent minutes with assignments after each meeting. Group developed & used Transition Planning Process Map, which outlines timelines and role responsibilities Strengths of New Mexico to support the pilot Key decision makers of each agency are well known to stakeholders. Each state agency has a financial stake in good outcomes. Through NM s State Implementation Grant, CDD/Autism Programs supported a mediator/facilitator. 1
15 Challenges Large rural state with majority of resources in Albuquerque Few providers with expertise in supporting individuals with challenging behaviors/asd throughout New Mexico Community preparation prior to an individual s return not common practice Lessons Learned Successful transitions of these individuals are complex and require cooperation of several entities Admission and discharge criteria not consistent, quality assurance issues need to be constantly addressed Wraparound services currently offered through NM s behavioral health system were NOT found to be sufficient for most individuals Public schools typically begin process of preparation for return to school Lessons Learned These complex cases are time consuming, however, expertise of the collective group led to solutions in a much shorter time than a family/case worker working in isolation The use of a mediator/facilitator crucial for tracking issues and in supporting the momentum of group Major Obstacles Lack of ownership of the process Integration of health, behavioral health and school services Quality of treatment plans/discharge criteria Lack of expertise in providers across all systems No one agency has final word Greatest Impact on System from Process State agency representatives critically reviewed their policies and approaches to support individual children/youth and their families. State agency representatives were placed in a role of creative problem solvers Sustainability of systems change Recommendations from AOT have been outlined in response to NM SM20/HM 44. Some include: Increased training for education/behavioral health providers around issues of challenging behavior/asd Quality assurance issues, including the use of restraints, adequacy of treatment program, criteria for admission/discharge Based on feedback from legislative representatives, it is anticipated that recommendations will be carried forth in the 2013 NM legislative session 2
16 Sustainability of systems change The Deputy Secretary of the NM PED, issued a guidance to all special education directors in NM (7/12) on Best Practices: Transition Planning for Students Enrolled in RTCs in or out of State specifically citing the Transition Planning Process Map. Training on this transition process will be implemented state wide in Fall, 2012 for educators Unique aspects of approach: Use of a highly skilled mediator/facilitator crucial to keep group on task. Working through challenges of individual cases as an inter-agency team increased team s understanding of the issues at a personal level. Use of Transition Planning Process Map developed by AOT. Healthy Children. Healthy Families. Healthy Communities. Other Members from CDD/Autism Programs: Gay Finlayson Michael Harle Amber Hayes Thank you for participating! A brief evaluation survey will appear after you exit the webinar. Your feedback is much appreciated! 3
