BY HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES COMMITTEE - SUSAN G. KUHN,
CHAIRPERSON
IN RE: COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH - MODEL IN-SERVICE TRAINING PROJECT
REVISED PROPOSAL
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, a model in-service training project has been ongoing since the fall
of 1983 at the Wayne County Community Mental Health Services Board; and
WHEREAS, initial findings have indicated a measurable increase in the ability
of staff to work with more difficult and problematic persons which, consequently, also
resulted in staff experiencing greater satisfaction with their work; and
WHEREAS, these results have encouraged the Michigan Department of Mental
Health to extend this project to the Oakland County Community Mental Health Services
Board; and
WHEREAS, the in-service project would be tailored to the needs of Oakland
County Community Mental Health staff and would include continued training of therapists
via individual supervision, case consultations and clinic seminars; and
WHEREAS, benefits derived from this training project would potentially
increase staff productivity, improve clinical services to citizens, and enhance cost
effectiveness; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Community Mental Health Services Board has
submitted a funding proposal to the Michigan Department of Mental Health in the amount
of $45,000 to contract for a Modei Community Mental Health In-service Training Project;
and
WHEREAS, this application was approved through the County's grants and
contracts procedure established by Resolution 1/86186; and
WHEREAS, the Michigan Department of Mental Health has notified the
County that it approves the proposal in principle, but cannot fund the application at this
time, and that the Department of Mental Health authorizes the Community Mental Health
Services Board to redirect funds in the amount of $10,000 from projected unexpended
dollars in the current State fiscal year ending September 30, 1987 to support the proposal
in part, with no commitment of continued funding beyond that date; and
WHEREAS, the Community Mental Health Services Board has projected
unexpended funds in its current State and County budget sufficient to fund the model in-
service training project at the recommended reduced level, which constitutes a variance
greater than 15% from the amount originally applied for:
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners approve the Model In-service Training Project as recommended by the
Community Mental Health Services Board, to be funded through temporary redirection of
projected unexpended dollars in the current approved 1987 budget in the amount of
$10,000.
Mr. Chairperson, on behalf of the Health and Human Services Committee, I
move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
