INTRODUCTION
The Arkansas Department of Health, Bureau of Alcohol and Drug
				Abuse Prevention (ADH-ADAP or ADAP) is the single state agency responsible for
				developing and promulgating standards, rules and regulations for alcohol and
				other drug abuse prevention and treatment functions within the State, and
				operation of a comprehensive management evaluation and community research
				process for the allocation of resources. It is the primary point of contact in
				the state for the award of federal funds to be used in alcohol and other drug
				abuse prevention and treatment programs in the state.
It is determined that in order to combat the abuse and misuse
				of alcohol, tobacco and other potentially harmful drugs, a comprehensive
				prevention and treatment strategy must be developed in Arkansas. This strategy
				shall include the development and administration of a wide range of activities
				and campaigns deemed effective and tailored to the needs of Arkansas
				citizens.
MISSION
To help Arkansas Citizens live productive lives free from the
				abuse of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs.
MAJOR GOALS
1. To act as a strong advocate for
			 comprehensive alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse, education, intervention,
			 prevention and treatment services in Arkansas and to assure that these programs
			 are identified and presented to lawmakers and to key decision makers.
2. To assure the provision of comprehensive
			 treatment and prevention services to citizens of Arkansas who have an alcohol,
			 tobacco and/or other drug abuse problem or potential problem.
3. To assure that comprehensive services are
			 tailored to the specific needs of individuals within each county and region of
			 the State.
4. To assure that all
			 services provided for the alcohol and drug abuser meet minimum standards
			 required for quality care.
5. To
			 allocate limited dollars to local communities in the most cost efficient and
			 cost effective process available.
6. To coordinate with other State agencies
			 and voluntary agencies to assure maximum utilization of available resources and
			 services.
7. To provide
			 comprehensive educational and training resources that are responsive to the
			 changing and diverse needs of alcohol, tobacco and drug abuse clients in
			 Arkansas.
8. To provide a focus for
			 the enhancing of criminal justice linkages with the substance abuse treatment
			 system.
PHILOSOPHY AND PROGRAM POLICY
The philosophy and program policy of the ADAP recognizes
				that:
1. Even though there are
			 generally accepted solutions to the problems of alcohol, tobacco and other drug
			 abuse, local communities' problems and needs must be considered when
			 determining successful preventive approaches.
2. Effective alcohol, tobacco and other drug
			 abuse prevention and treatment activities must have local citizen input,
			 community support, and community involvement.
3. An effective prevention plan must provide
			 opportunities for persons to become functional and productive citizens, either
			 through treatment, information, education, or alternative activities. All
			 activities are important in effective prevention.
4. Effective prevention programs cannot rely
			 on a single source of support but must utilize local resources such as existing
			 sources of supportive services, community programs, neighborhood organizations
			 and social services.
5. In order to
			 assist local communities in the development of alcohol, tobacco and other drug
			 abuse prevention activities, the ADAP must first assist the community by
			 generating community awareness of alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse
			 problems. This includes an understanding of the nature and extent of the
			 alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse problem, the deeper issues underlying the
			 problem, and the need for efforts to deal with the problem.
6. Any activity or program funded by the ADAP
			 must be consistent with the goals established by the ADAP; however, funding
			 requirements must be flexible to allow a responsiveness to individual community
			 needs.
7. Alcohol, tobacco and/or
			 other drug abuse may reflect or contribute to underlying individual and/or
			 community problems; the most successful prevention measures are those that deal
			 with helping a person in the development of his inner resources (feelings,
			 attitudes, values clarification, communication skills, etc.) so that he can
			 deal more effectively with his role in life.
8. Alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse are
			 problems found in rural areas as well as metropolitan areas. Programs should be
			 available to rural and small communities.
9. State level responsibilities to alcohol,
			 tobacco and other drug abuse prevention activities in Arkansas shall be in
			 management, coordination and technical assistance areas. Delivery of direct
			 services shall be through the administration of the Benton Detoxification
			 Services Center, providing services statewide, and the Supervised Treatment and
			 Education Program (S.T.E.P.), providing assessment and drug treatment diversion
			 to first time non-violent offenders.
10. State level responsibilities to all
			 funded community-based treatment and prevention programs in management,
			 coordination and technical assistance areas shall include financial monitoring,
			 evaluation, training, statewide data retrieval and analysis, accreditation and
			 technical assistance.
11. The ADAP
			 shall develop a Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Application (RFA) and
			 Progress Report (PR) system to be used in the awarding of funds.
12. The ADAP shall assure that all
			 availability of funding announcements, press releases, RFPs, etc. will include
			 a statement indicating the percentage of federal funds involved in the
			 program.
13. All procurement
			 transactions shall be conducted in a manner to provide, to the maximum extent
			 practicable, open and free competition.
14. The ADAP shall afford an opportunity to
			 an applicant to appear before the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Authority and/or the
			 Alcohol and Drug Abuse Coordinating Council in matters of the award of funds,
			 review of an application, or adjustment to an existing contract or
			 grant.
15. The ADAP shall not
			 enforce or develop a policy or guideline for the awarding of contracts or
			 grants, or to continue to disburse funds, which it knowingly finds to be in
			 conflict with any state or federal rule or regulation.
16. The ADAP shall not approve for funding
			 any application which does not comply with the ADAP policies and
			 procedures.
17. The ADAP shall
			 present the
Policies and Procedures Manual
affecting
			 all contracts and grants to the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Authority for review and
			 advice prior to its implementation.
The Policies and Procedures
			 Manual
will be reviewed and updated at least annually.
18. The ADAP shall present
			 applications/proposals for service delivery which are awarded by the ADAP to
			 the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Authority and/or the Alcohol and Drug Abuse
			 Coordinating Council for review and advice. This procedure does not apply to
			 administrative contracts such as equipment purchases, newspaper contracts,
			 training contracts, planning contracts or pilot projects.
19. The ADAP shall develop accreditation
			 standards for all funded and non-funded treatment programs. This may include
			 licensing. All alcohol/other drug abuse/addiction treatment programs must
			 comply with the ADAP standards. The ADAP shall accept the
			 licensure/accreditation/certification of hospital-based alcohol and other drug
			 abuse programs by the Arkansas Department of Health, the Joint Commission on
			 Accreditation of Hospital Organizations (JCAHO), or the Commission on
			 Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). The ADAP shall also accept
			 certification of Community Mental Health Centers by the Arkansas Division of
			 Mental Health Services.
20. The
			 ADAP shall encourage development of accreditation standards for alcohol and
			 drug abuse professionals in the state.
21. The ADAP shall develop a management
			 information system for all programs, whereby the ADAP can conduct program
			 planning activities.
22. The ADAP
			 shall allocate funds in each area of the state based on federal mandates,
			 special projects and a needs based funding formula.
23. The ADAP shall allocate regional funding
			 according to the following program categories: Treatment, Prevention and
			 Education.
24. The ADAP shall
			 initiate, if funds are available, the development of pilot projects in
			 treatment, prevention and education which shall be evaluated for future
			 development of model programs and activities.
25. The ADAP shall assist local communities
			 in securing all available financial assistance for provision of treatment and
			 prevention activities.
26. The ADAP
			 may coordinate with any public or private agency or organization which can
			 assist in collecting data on incidence and prevalence of alcohol and other drug
			 abuse.
27. Information on alcohol
			 and other drugs should be presented in a clear, unbiased and factual method.
			 The ADAP believes "scare tactics" are an inappropriate mechanism for conveying
			 information to the general public.
28. The ADAP and its funded contract/grant
			 providers shall complete the Certification Regarding Lobbying statement for
			 contracts of $100,000 or more. This certification assures that no federal funds
			 have been paid or will be paid for the purposes of lobbying in connection with
			 the awarding of any Federal contract, grant, loan, cooperative agreement, and
			 the extension, renewal, amendment or modification of any Federal contract,
			 grant, loan or cooperative agreement.
29. The ADAP shall not use Substance Abuse
			 Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant funds to carry out any program of
			 distributing sterile needles for the hypodermic injection of any illegal drug
			 or distributing bleach for the purpose of cleansing needles for such hypodermic
			 injection.
30. The ADAP shall not
			 carry out any testing for the etiologic agent for acquired immune deficiency
			 syndrome unless such testing is accompanied by appropriate pre-test counseling
			 and appropriate post-test counseling.
31. It is the policy of the ADAP and the
			 State of Arkansas that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation,
			 possession or use of a controlled substance in a state agency's workplace is
			 prohibited.
32. Prevention programs
			 shall emphasize zero tolerance of illicit drug use by all persons and the use
			 of alcohol and tobacco by youth.
33. Prevention is based on the knowledge that
			 alcohol and other drug abuse is a multifaceted, complex problem, and that
			 alcoholism and other drug addiction is a primary, progressive but treatable
			 disease.
PREVENTION PHILOSOPHY AND
POLICIES
1. Prevention is the use of planned
			 activities to reduce the risk that individuals will experience alcohol or
			 drug-related problems in their lives. It is a positive, proactive approach that
			 attempts to influence individuals before the earliest onset of such
			 problems.
2. Prevention begins
			 within communities - helping individuals to learn that they can have an impact
			 in solving their local problems and setting local norms. Prevention emphasizes
			 collaboration and cooperation, both to conserve limited resources and to build
			 on existing relationships within the community. Community groups are routinely
			 used to explore new, creative ways to use existing resources.
3. Prevention is part of a broader health
			 promotion effort, based on the knowledge that addiction is a primary,
			 progressive, chronic, and fatal disease. As such, it focuses on helping people
			 develop new, more positive views of themselves. It is aimed at both users and
			 non-users, with a goal to helping community members to achieve healthier
			 life-styles.
4. Community
			 activities sometimes incorporate intervention activities, which attempt to
			 assist individuals who have already begun inappropriate use of alcohol or other
			 drugs. Intervention may include referring to diagnostic or treatment
			 centers.
5. Comprehensive
			 prevention efforts target many agencies and systems, and use many strategies in
			 order to have the broadest possible impact. Therefore, evaluation is crucial in
			 order for communities to identify their successful efforts and to modify or
			 abandon their unproductive efforts.
6. The overall goal for prevention is the
			 development of healthy, responsible, productive citizens who will be unlikely
			 to experience alcohol or drug-related problems in their lives.
7. Prevention emphasizes zero tolerance of
			 illicit drug use by all persons and the use of alcohol and tobacco products by
			 youth.
8. Building coordinated
			 prevention efforts that offer multiple strategies, provide multiple points of
			 access and coordinate and expand citizen participation in community activity is
			 a most promising approach to preventing alcohol and other drug
			 problems.
9. The ADAP supports an
			 holistic approach to drug, alcohol, and other education including health
			 education, self-appreciation and personal development for grades kindergarten
			 through 12.
10. The ADAP supports
			 development of alcohol and other drug abuse education in schools. It is the
			 philosophy of ADAP that effective education is dependent upon quality teacher
			 training.
11. Prevention programs
			 approved for funding must identify a target population; must develop a program
			 in response to the target population; must assure adequate measures to involve
			 the target group; must have short and long term objectives; and must have an
			 adequate evaluation methodology to reflect accomplishment of short and long
			 term objectives.
12. The ADAP shall
			 encourage all primary prevention programs to become self-sustaining after
			 initial funding.
POLICIES AFFECTING TREATMENT AND
				REHABILITATION
1.
			 The ADAP shall develop a plan for each area of the State which shall include
			 the present funding, utilization and need.
2. The ADAP shall determine a plan for
			 allocations of funding, (i.e., Federal mandates, special projects and a
			 statewide funding formula, etc.).
3. The ADAP will purchase outpatient and
			 residential alcohol and other drug abuse treatment services within a reasonable
			 ceiling rate. Subordinate services are defined as medical maintenance,
			 psychiatric testing, psychological testing, medical detoxification and other
			 services not included in the ceiling rate for outpatient and residential
			 services. These subordinate services may be purchased within a separate ceiling
			 rate.
4. The ADAP supports the
			 concept that non-medical as well'as medical treatment models are viable and
			 effective approaches in providing quality care.
5. Successful treatment and rehabilitation
			 must utilize the total range of services which the individual can appropriately
			 and productively use in the recovery process.
6. While client work may be an important part
			 of the recovery process, the program should develop policies which safeguard
			 the client from inappropriate work, ensure the voluntary nature of work
			 assignments, and meet Department of Labor guidelines.
7. Isolated program components, (i.e.,
			 detoxification, outreach) shall not be funded without assurance that primary
			 and subordinate services are provided.
8. The ADAP shall not initiate, encourage, or
			 approve the development nor funding of programs seeking to provide treatment by
			 modifying behavior through the use of psychosurgery, aversion therapy, or
			 chemotherapy as a primary treatment method.
9. The ADAP shall serve as the State
			 Methadone/LAAM (Levo-Alpha-Acetyl-Methadol) Authority and shall develop
			 standards, provide coordination and oversight of all methadone/LAAM program
			 applications, exemptions, waivers, monitoring and closings in coordination and
			 cooperation with the various federal agencies having regulatory oversight for
			 methadone/LAAM programs.
10. The
			 ADAP shall require that each funded treatment program coordinate services with
			 criminal justice systems within their service area.
11. The ADAP shall require that funded
			 treatment programs provide priority admission in the following order:
(1) Court ordered clients,
(2) Clients with the greatest clinical need,
(3) If all clients awaiting
			 admission have relatively the same clinical need, Injection Drag Users (IDU),
			 and Pregnant clients are given priority,
(4) Clients from the catchment area specified
			 by ADAP,
(5) Clients from the State
			 of Arkansas, and
(6) Clients from
			 other states.
