CONTINUUM OF CARE PROGRAM

PROJECT AIM - BAILEY HOUSE, INC’S PROJECT AIM WILL SERVE BLACK AND LATINX MEN AND WOMEN AGED 18 AND OVER IN UPPER MANHATTAN AND THE SOUTH BRONX WITH A SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS (SMI) OR CO-OCCURRING DISORDER (COD), BY UTILIZING LESSONS LEARNED FROM ITS INITIAL PROJECT AIM AWARD (FUNDED UNDER SM-18-004) TO FURTHER STRENGTHEN HEPATITIS C (HCV) TESTING, ENHANCE SUPPORT GROUPS, AND INCREASE ITS REPERTOIRE OF EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES (EBPS). PROJECT AIM WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IN BAILEY HOUSE’S PARK AVENUE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CENTER IN EAST HARLEM AND WILL SERVE THE FOLLOWING GEOGRAPHIC CATCHMENT AREAS OF NEW YORK CITY (NYC): CENTRAL AND EAST HARLEM IN UPPER MANHATTAN; AND HUNTS POINT/MOUNT HAVEN, HIGHBRIDGE/MORRISANIA, CROTONA – TREMONT, HUNTS POINT – MOTT HAVEN, AND FORDHAM-BRONX PARK IN THE SOUTH BRONX. NEARLY 900,00 INDIVIDUALS RESIDE IN THE SERVICE AREA, MANY OF WHOM ARE LOW-INCOME AND ARE DISPROPORTIONATELY IMPACTED BY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DISORDERS. OVERALL, 55% IDENTIFY AS HISPANIC/LATINO AND 31% IDENTIFY AS BLACK; JUST OVER ONE-THIRD (35%) OF THE POPULATION IS FOREIGN BORN; AND NEARLY TWO-THIRDS (61%) OF THE SERVICE AREA SPEAK A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH AT HOME. ROUGHLY 35% OF HOUSEHOLDS IN THE SERVICE AREA LIVE BELOW THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL (FPL); AND MOST BAILEY HOUSE CLIENTS LIVE BELOW 100% OF THE FPL. RESIDENTS IN THE SERVICE AREA ALSO HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER RATES OF MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE USE COMPARED TO NYC. DEPRESSION RATES IN THE SOUTH BRONX (16.9%) AND EAST HARLEM (21.4%) ARE OVER TWICE AS HIGH THAN NYC (8.9%), AND DRUG-RELATED HOSPITALIZATIONS AND MORTALITY RATES IN SERVICE AREA ARE AMONG THE HIGHEST IN THE CITY. NEARLY ALL SERVICE AREA NEIGHBORHOODS ARE DESIGNATED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREAS (HPSA) FOR PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE, MENTAL HEALTH CARE, AND DENTAL CARE, AS WELL AS MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED AREAS (MUA). IN 2020, THE SERVICE AREA ACCOUNTED FOR 21.8% OF ALL NEW NYC HIV DIAGNOSES, WITH BLACK AND LATINX INDIVIDUALS ACCOUNTING FOR 94.1% OF THOSE NEWLY DIAGNOSED; THE SERVICE AREA NEIGHBORHOODS ALSO HAVE HIGHER HCV RATES THAN ALL OF NYC, WITH MORRISANIA AND CROTONA HAVING THE THIRD HIGHEST RATES OUT OF ALL 42 UHF NEIGHBORHOODS (131.0 PER 100,000). BH PROPOSES TO SERVE 295 INDIVIDUALS THROUGH INCREASED HCV TESTING; CONTINUED ROBUST CASE MANAGEMENT; EXPANDED RECREATIONAL AND SUPPORT GROUPS TO IMPROVE SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS AMONG ENROLLED CLIENTS; AND AN ADDED TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE APPROACH ALONG WITH THE SAMHSA ANGER MANAGEMENT EBP TO ITS EXISTING SUITE OF EBPS WHICH INCLUDE SCREENING, BRIEF INTERVENTION, REFERRAL, AND TREATMENT (SBIRT) WITH MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING (MI) TECHNIQUES, WELLNESS SELF-MANAGEMENT PLUS (WSM+), SEEKING SAFETY, AND HEALTHY LIVING PROJECT (HLP). IMPORTANTLY, BH WILL INTEGRATE PROJECT AIM WITH THE AGENCY’S RECENTLY AWARDED NYC HEALTH DEPARTMENT-FUNDED PLAYSURE NETWORK AWARD, A STATUS-NEUTRAL, SEX-POSITIVE APPROACH TO HIV, HCV, AND STI TESTING AND LINKAGE TO SERVICES PROGRAM. PROJECT AIM’S GOAL IS TO REDUCE THE INCIDENCE OF HIV, HCV, AND IMPROVE OVERALL MENTAL HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH SMI OR COD AMONG THE POPULATION OF FOCUS. BY THE END OF THE PROJECT, 75% OF CLIENTS COMPLETING SEEKING SAFETY OR WSM+ WILL REPORT INCREASED USE OF POSITIVE COPING SKILLS, 75% OF CLIENTS COMPLETING SAMHSA ANGER MANAGEMENT WILL REPORT INCREASED USE OF ANGER MANAGEMENT SKILLS; AND 75% OF CLIENTS COMPLETING HLP WILL REPORT INCREASED KNOWLEDGE ON SEXUAL RISK BEHAVIORS. IN ADDITION, 75% OF ENROLLED CLIENTS WILL COMPLETE AT LEAST ONE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH-RELATED FOLLOW-UP VISIT BASED ON RECOMMENDED SERVICES DOCUMENTED AT INTAKE; AND SUBSTANCE USE AND SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY BY 10%.

PROJECT ADULTS IN MOTION (PROJECT AIM)

BAILEY HOUSE TRANQUILIT PROJECT - BAILEY HOUSE, INC.’S (BH) TRANQUILIT PROGRAM WILL ENGAGE TRANSGENDER (TG) PERSONS OF COLOR (POC) AGES 18 AND OLDER WITH A SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER (SUD) AND/OR A CO-OCCURRING DISORDER (COD) INCLUDING A SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS (SMI), HIV, AND HEPATITIS C (HCV) THAT WORK, CONGREGATE, OR LIVE IN THE CENTRAL AND EAST HARLEM AND MIDTOWN NEIGHBORHOODS OF MANHATTAN AND THE HUNTS POINT/MOUNT HAVEN, HIGHBRIDGE/MORRISANIA, CROTONA – TREMONT, AND FORDHAM-BRONX PARK NEIGHBORHOODS OF THE SOUTH BRONX. THE ECONOMIC CONDITIONS IN CENTRAL AND EAST HARLEM AND THE SOUTH BRONX ARE AMONG THE POOREST IN ALL OF NYC—52% OF RESIDENTS LIVE BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL AND OVER HALF (55%) EXPERIENCE RENT BUDGET WHERE 30% OR MORE OF THEIR INCOME IS SPENT ON RENT. WHILE ECONOMIC CONDITIONS IN MIDTOWN MANHATTAN ARE BETTER, THE AREA SERVES AS A TRANSPORTATION HUB IN NYC WITH MANY SUBWAY LINES, BUS TERMINAL, AND PENN STATION. GIVEN THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS WHO FLOW THROUGH THE AREA, MIDTOWN IS A HUB FOR SEX WORK, UNSHELTERED INDIVIDUALS, AND INDIVIDUALS WHO INJECT DRUGS. BH USES ITS EXPERIENCE AND RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN THESE COMMUNITIES TO REACH AND ENGAGE THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT OTHERWISE SEEK SERVICES. LGBT INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCE SUD AND COD AT HIGHER RATES THAN THE GENERAL POPULATION. A RECENT STUDY FOUND THAT SUD DIAGNOSES WERE SIGNIFICANTLY ELEVATED AMONG TG ADULTS RELATIVE TO THEIR CISGENDER COUNTERPARTS. A META-ANALYSIS OF MENTAL HEALTH AMONG TG INDIVIDUALS FOUND CONSISTENT LEVELS OF DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMS, SUICIDALITY, INTERPERSONAL TRAUMA EXPOSURE, SUD, ANXIETY, AND GENERAL DISTRESS. LGBT PEOPLE MAY BE DISCOURAGED FROM SEEKING SUD TREATMENT BECAUSE OF NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES IN COMING OUT TO PROVIDERS, ANTICIPATING NEGATIVE REACTIONS, OR HAVING HEARD ABOUT OTHERS’ BAD EXPERIENCES. FURTHER, THE PRIORITY POPULATION IS DISPROPORTIONATELY IMPACTED BY THE HIV AND HCV EPIDEMICS. TG INDIVIDUALS OF ALL EXPERIENCE ARE PRIORITY POPULATIONS IN THE NYC ENDING THE HIV EPIDEMIC PLAN. IN 2021, 62 TG PEOPLE WERE NEWLY DIAGNOSED WITH HIV IN NYC, OF WHICH 92% WERE TG WOMEN AND 87% IDENTIFIED AS BLACK OR LATINX/HISPANIC. A GREATER PROPORTION OF NEWLY DIAGNOSED TG INDIVIDUALS WERE UNDER 30 YEARS OLD AT AGE OF DIAGNOSES COMPARED TO THEIR NON-TG COUNTERPARTS. RATES OF VIRAL SUPPRESSION (77%) AND SUSTAINED VIRAL SUPPRESSION (60%) AMONG HIV-POSITIVE TG INDIVIDUALS IN MEDICAL CARE WERE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER THAN THEIR NON-TG COUNTERPARTS, INDICATING A NEED TO SUPPORT MEDICATION ADHERENCE. IN 2021, ONLY ONE-QUARTER (26%) OF INDIVIDUALS WITH A POSITIVE VIRAL DIAGNOSTIC HCV TEST INITIATED TREATMENT. TRANQUILIT WILL PROVIDE SERVICES UTILIZING AN EVIDENCE-BASED, HARM REDUCTION, CULTURALLY SENSITIVE, AND HEALTH EQUITY APPROACH TO INCREASE ACCESS TO AND ENGAGEMENT IN HARM REDUCTION AND HIV PREVENTION SERVICES AND PRIMARY AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE AMONG THE PRIORITY POPULATION IN THE SERVICE AREA. INFORMED BY ITS EXPERIENCE, BH WILL EXPAND ITS SUCCESSFUL STREET AND VIRTUAL OUTREACH MODEL AND PERSON-CENTERED APPROACH TO ENGAGE TG POC IN COMPREHENSIVE, INTEGRATED SUITE OF HARM REDUCTION SERVICES INCLUDING SYRINGE EXCHANGE, HIV/HCV SCREENING, AND TRAUMA-INFORMED SCREENING AND LINK THEM TO PRIMARY CARE, MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE TREATMENT, AND COMPREHENSIVE STATUS NEUTRAL HIV PREVENTION AND OTHER ESSENTIAL SUPPORT SERVICES. BH WILL ALSO IMPLEMENT THE TRANSGENDER WOMEN INVOLVED IN STRATEGIES FOR TRANSFORMATION (TWIST) AND SEEKING SAFETY EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAMS, IMPLEMENT A VIRTUAL SAFE SPACE, AND SUPPORT THE YOUTH & PREVENTION SERVICES ADVISORY BOARD TO GUIDE SERVICES ACROSS THE DEPARTMENT, INCLUDING THIS PROGRAM. OVER THE FIVE-YEAR PERIOD, HW WILL ENGAGE 525 INDIVIDUALS: 75 IN YEAR 1, 100 IN YEARS 2 AND 3, AND 150 IN YEARS 4 AND 5 THROUGH OUTREACH AND HIV/HCV SCREENING. BY THE END OF THE PROGRAM, THERE WILL BE A 10% REDUCTION IN SUBSTANCE USE AND SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY, AND AT LEAST 90% OF CLIENTS WITH HIV WILL BE VIRALLY SUPPRESSED AT THEIR LAST APPOINTMENT.
