Bridgeway
Recovery Program Receives Exemplary Service Award
 on
October 3, 2001, CPC’s Bridgeway Recovery Program was honored with
a 2001 King County Mental Health, Chemical Abuse and Dependency Services
Division Exemplary Service Award in the category of Systems Integration.
Over the past several years, since CPC became state-licensed to provide
outpatient chemical dependency treatment, CPC has recognized the importance
of integrating chemical dependency services with mental health services
for individuals with co-occurring disorders of mental illness and substance
abuse, and has incorporated this value into CPC’s core service
philosophy and mission.
Approximately 80% of clients receiving services at the Bridgeway Recovery
Program, have co-occurring disorders, which contribute to additional
challenges and increased risk of homelessness, incarceration, and hospitalization
or involuntary detox. The provision of an integrated treatment/recovery
model truly requires highly collaborative relationships with numerous
support systems to ensure integrated care for this population. Bridgeway
Recovery Program staff work closely with Harborview Medical Center,
the Dutch Shisler Sobering Support Center, the Recovery Centers of King
County, the involuntary treatment system for alcoholism/ drug addiction,
County Designated Mental Health Professionals, primary care services,
residential treatment providers, housing entities, courts, jails, hospitals,
and Health Care for the Homeless to coordinate care for clients with
multiple service needs. This innovative and collaborative approach to
break  down
the barriers facing chemically dependent, mentally ill clients who have
typically been treated in two separate arenas, can have profound effects
on their lives. As one client expressed in her nomination letter to
King County, “In time I was able to accept that I would not be
able to achieve mental health, stability, and quality of life without
cessation of my alcohol and drug use...I am so grateful for this life
saving and life changing program....this is the longest period of sobriety
since the age of sixteen...I offer my highest praise and gratitude for
this wonderful program and for the counselors whose knowledge of treatment
techniques and mental health disorders, have provided me with a safe
arena in which to work on myself.”
CPC’s Bridgeway Recovery Program serves over 500 clients annually,
and has become one of the largest providers of Title XIV chemical dependency
treatment services in King County. |
