We have appreciated the support received from the City of Englewood . In the past three years Arapahoe Mental Health Center has benefited from the City's willingness to arrange for the sale of the fire station on Belleview and Fox at a very attractive interest rate. This cooperative effort allowed us to establish a successful Adolescent Day Resource Center for the treatment of adolescents who are at risk of placement outside the home . However, inflation and cost increases requ i re us to reque st the City Council's co nsideration for an increase in the level of s upport for the Center services delivered to residents of Engle- wood. We have not requested any funding support for the past three fis- c al years, 82-83, 83-84, and 84-85. Arapahoe Men tal Health Cen- ter is a pr i vate, non-profit, fre e-s tand i ng co rporat io n. Although we do receive some State, cou n ty and other local fund- ing, a substa nt ial port io n of our budget is generated through our own staff's efforts . At pr esent nearly 40% of our budget is from client fees , insurance, medicaid and donation . We have , as a high priority , to reduce to the extent possible, our dependence on governmental funding .

Weist ~~~--·----------------------~~----·--~------------~~·0 I • • ( • • • • STATEMENT TO ACCOMPANY THE REQUEST FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR 1984 FROM THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD I . DESCRIPTION OF THE AGENCY Arapahoe Mental Health Center is ~ a county agency. It is a pr ivate non-profit community mental health c enter which was organized in 1955 by a group of Arapahoe County residents. These citizens believed Arapahoe County needed a community mental health center which would make mental health services available close to where people live. II. SERVICES PROVIDED The Center provides the following serv ices to Englewood residents : A. Outpatient Services Outpatient services are designed to provide care to individuals who require counseling for emotional problems such as depress i on and anxiety caused by marital, job-related, family, or similar types of difficulties. In times of economic downturns the number of persons seeking outpatient care shows a dramatic i ncrease . B. Partial Care Services Partial care services relates to a treatment program for the more severely and chronically disabled persons. Many of the persons served in this program have been emotionally disabled for a l ong period of time. The Partial Care Program includes a prevoc ational program whi c h is designed to help people get ready to go back to work if they are capable of doing so. C. Inpatient Services Acutely disturbed persons often must be hos- pitalized because of the intensity of the i r emotional illness and because they often require medi cal as well as psychiatric care. An example of the acutely d isturbed person is someone who attempts suicide. D. Residential Services This type of care is provided i n facilities like halfway houses. It is for people who need supervised care bu t do not need to be in a hospital setting. E. Emer gency Services The Center is staffed to respond to psychiatric emergencies on a 24 hour a day basis. F . Consultation and Education Services An example of co nsultation services is ~ work with the school district and the police depart- ment. The consultation component is primarily aimed at teaching staff of other agencies how to better work with their clients and how to determine if someone needs to be referred to the mental health center. Our education program focuses on prevention. • I • • - ( • • • • III. How Many Englewood Residents Are Being Served? During the past fiscal year, July 1, 1983 to June 30, 1984, 486 Englewood residents received services from Arapahoe Mental Health Center. The total num.ber of mental health service contacts (treatment sessions, hospital days, etc .) exceeded 9,000. During the coming year, based on current year figures, we will provide services to an estimated 500 Englewood residents. We will also continue to provide a variety of consultation and other services to various agencies in Englewood. IV. How Do the Center Services Benefit Englewood? Englewood is a community comprised of all ages. The mental health center provides services designed to help families deal with the various stresses of daily living which threaten family life. Services are also provided to single persons of all ages who have difficulty coping with the many demands of life in today's society, and to older person who are struggling with the additional pressures brought on by failing health, retirement, losses, etc. Some of our services are aimed at preventing mental illness; that is, helping people to learn what they can do to head off emotional problems before they develop or to deal with minor concerns before they become major problems. V. Who Will Benefit From the Money Contributed .!!Y. Englewood? Englewood residents. In 1983, the actual amount spent by the Center for services to Englewood residents exceeded $350,000 . VI. How .!..! the Mental Health Center Administered? The Center has received a "clean" audit report (external audit by certified public accountants) during the last four years, and exp~cts to receive the same type of audit report this year. We are licensed by the State Health Department and approved by the State Division of Mental Health. VII. iiow .!..! the Center Governed? The Center is governed by a citizen Board comprised of residents of Arapahoe and Douglas County communities including Englewood. I • • • • • • ARAPAHOE.

Otis, Mayor City of Englewood 4493 South Cherokee Street Englewood, CO 80110 Dear Mayor Otis: Execu tiw Dine tor I am writing on behalf of the Arapahoe County Task Force on Alcohol Problems, Inc., the non-profit agency responsible for operation of Arapahoe House. The purpose of this letter is to present our request for support from Englewood for FY as. Arapahoe House is the largest free-standing public alco- holism treatment center in Colorado . Our center comprises a 24-bed detoxification center , a 32-bed community intensive residential treatment program, and four outpatient clinics. During the past fiscal year, Arapahoe House has provided over $376 ,500 in services to resid nts of Englewood. Accord- ingly, we are requesting $15 ,000 from Englewood to assist in meeting the cost of providing these services. The Alcohol and Drug Abuse Division of the Colorado De- partment of Health reimburses programs approximately 60\ of the actual cost of these services. Be cause of this situation, Arapahoe House must seek additional sources of support, in- cluding annual funding from Arapahoe County and each of the cities and municipalities within the county. Your past, present and future support of Arapahoe House is greatly appreciated. If we can provide you with addition- al documentation or other material about Arapahoe House, please let me know. I thank you in advance for your attention ~· consideration in this matter. ~~~·,.~\,/} Michael W.

DESCRIPTION OF THE AGENCY Arapahoe Mental Health Center is~ a county agency. It is a private non-profit community mental health center which was organized in 1955 by a group of Arapahoe County residents. These citizens believed Arapahoe County needed a community mental health center which would make mental health services available close to where people live. II. SERVICES PROVIDED The Center provides the following services to Englewood residents: A. Outpatient Services Outpatient services are designed to provide care to individuals who require counseling for emotional problems such as depression and anxiety caused by marital, job-related, family, or similar types of difficulties. In times of economic downturns the number of persons seeking outpatient care shows a dramatic increase. B. Partial Care Services Partial care services relates to a treatment program for the more severely and chronically disabled persons. Many of the persons served in this program have been emotionally disabled for a long period of time. The Partial Care Program includes a prevocational program which is designed to help people get ready to go back to work if they are capable of doing so . C. Inpatient Services Acutely disturbed persons often must be hos- pitalized because of the intensity of their emotional illness and because they often require medical as well as psychiatric care. An example of the acutely disturbed person is someone who attempts suicide. D. Residential Services This type of care is provided in facilities like halfway houses. It is for people who need supervised care but do not need to be in a hospital setting . E. Emergency Services The Center is staffed to respond to psychiatric emergencies on a 24 hour a day basis. F. Consultation~ Education Services An example of consultation services is our work with the school district and the police depart- ment. The consultation component is primarily aimed at teaching staff of other agencies how to better work with their clients and how to determine if someone needs to be referred to the mental health center. Our education program focuses on prevention. • I • • ( ( • • • • III. How Many Englewood Residents Are Being Served? During the past fiscal year, July l, 1983 to June 30, 1984, 486 Englewood residents received services from Arapahoe Mental Health Center. The total number of mental health service contacts (treatment sessions, hospital days, etc .) exceeded 9,000. During the coming year, based on current year figures, we will provide services to an estimated 500 Englewood residents. We will also continue to provide a variety of consultation and other services to various agencies in Englewood. IV. How Do the Center Services Benefit Englewood? Englewood is a community comprised of all ages . The mental health center provides services designed to help families deal with the various stresses of daily living which threaten family life. Services are also provided to single persons of all ages who have difficulty coping with the many demands of life in today's society, and to older person who are struggling with the additional pressures brought on by failing health, retirement, losses , etc . Some of our services are aimed at preventing mental illness; that is, helping people to learn what they can do to head off emotional problems before they develop or to deal with minor concerns before they become major problems, V. Who Will Benefit From the Money Contributed ~ Englewood? Englewood residents. In 1983, the actual amount spent by the Center for services to Englewood residents exceeded $350,000. VI. How ~ the Mental Health Center Administered? The Center has received a "clean" audit report (external audit by certified public accountants) during the last four years, and expects to receive the same type of audit report this year. We are licensed by the State Health Department and approved by the State Division of Mental Health. VII. How Is the Center Governed? The Center is governed by a citizen Board comprised of residents of Arapahoe and Douglas County communities including Englewood. • I • • ( • • • • ARAPAHO~ HOUSE THE AIIAPAHOE COUNTY TASK FORCE ON ALCOHOL PROBLDIS.

Otis, Mayor City of Englewood 4493 South Cherokee Street Englewood, co 80110 Dear Mayor Otis : Executive Dine: tor I am writing on behalf of the Arapahoe County Task Force on Alcohol Problems, Inc ., the non-profit agency responsible for operation of Arapahoe House. The purpose of this letter is to present our request for support from Englewood for FY 85. Arapahoe House is the largest free-standing public alco- holism treatment c e nter in Colorado . Our center comprises a 24-bed detoxification center , a 32-bed community intensive residential treatment program , and four outpatient clinics. During the past fiscal year, Arapahoe House has provided over $376 ,500 in services to residents of Englewood. Accord- ingly, we are requesting $15 ,000 from Englewood to assist in meeting the cost of providing these services. The Alcohol and Drug Abuse Division of the Colorado De- partment of Health reimburses programs approximately 60\ of the a ctual cost of these services. Be cause of this situation, Arapahoe House must seek additional sources of support, in- cluding annual funding from Arapahoe County and each of the cities and mun icipalities within the county. Your past, present and future support of Arapahoe House is greatly appreciated. If we can provide you with addition- al documentation or other material about Arapahoe House, please let me know. I thank you in advance for your attention ~ consideration in this matter. Sincerely, • ~cz:~Jp Executive Direc~··, cc: Andy McCowan, City Manag r; O.Oa Unit 3301 ..,.,., a.....
