Consejo Counseling and Referral Services

Consejo Counseling and Referral Services

Consejo Counseling and Referral Service is one of the largest behavioral health agencies in Washington State.

Their bilingual and bicultural staff provides culturally-competent services designed to enhance client strengths and address the diverse needs of adults, children, adolescents and families in Latino communities across the State of Washington.

Consejo’s Mission is to provide a continuum of behavioral health, substance abuse and domestic violence services including prevention, treatment and housing to individuals and families across Washington utilizing an interdependent treatment model so clients experience acceptance, emotional security and developmental growth while learning new skills to improve the quality of their lives. Consejo’s service delivery empowers clients to participate in their communities at their highest level of functioning.

Consejo Counseling and Referral Service is the most prominent mental health agency providing a comprehensive array of social services to Latino individuals and families across Washington State. Consejo is very pleased that in June of 2004, our Behavioral Health Services Division and Substance Abuse and Chemical Dependency Division both met the stringent requirements of the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). CARF certifies human service providers who meet their high standards of excellence. For Consejo, the organizational capacity required to meet the rigorous CARF guidelines confirms our agency remains steadfast in its commitment to the Latino community by focusing on client satisfaction and continually enhancing the quality of our services and programs. This perseverance and dedication has resulted in the honor of CARF international accreditation.

Programs include Behavioral Health, Domestic Violence Program, Substance Abuse, Youth, HIV AIDS, and Housing.

Facilities

Villa Esperanza

Owned and operated by Consejo Counseling and Referral Service, Villa Esperanza (Villa of Hope) is a 23 unit newly constructed two- and three-bedroom apartment complex providing transitional housing for homeless Latina survivors of domestic violence and their children.

South Park Youth Service Center

At the behest of Mayor Greg Nickels and the Seattle City Council, Consejo developed Desarrollo Juvenil Latino in Seattle’s South Park. This program specifically addresses the problem of Latino gang violence in the area and formulates a constructive response to the untimely and tragic death of a young Latino who was not involved in gangs but accidentally killed by gang violence.

Kent Service Center

In an effort to increase accessibility and expand our services, Consejo has partnered with The Alliance Center, a coalition of agencies working under one roof to meet the needs of South King County Residents. This strategic location increases the topographic reach of Consejo services to 12 satellite sites in 6 counties. Consejo’s Kent Service Center provides linkage to all Consejo programming including Children and Family Services; Outpatient Mental Health Treatment; Psychiatric Care; individual, group and family therapy; a range of affinity support groups; Domestic Violence Services including Sexual Assault Services and Crime Victim Services; and Effective Parenting Classes. We are proud to have now become a more distinct presence in behavioral health service provision to residents of Kent and areas nearby.

Tri-Cities and Walla Walla

The Domestic Violence Program in Eastern Washington is expanding with two new offices; one in Tri-Cities and a second office in Walla Walla. This is possible thanks to a grant from the Office of Crime Victim Advocates (OCVA). Because our Granger office receives so many calls from all over Eastern Washington, it has been impossible to meet the demand for services. Consejo is extremely pleased we now have three domestic violence service centers in two more cities east of the mountains.

How do I know if I, or someone I care about has a
problem with alcoholism, substance abuse, or addiction?

What To Look For

Criteria for determining dependence:

1. Increase in tolerance to mood-altering substances.
2. Withdrawal symptoms occur when drug use stops.
3. Substance is taken in larger amounts over a longer period of time.
4. There is a persistent desire or unsuccessful attempts to cut down or control use.
5. Incresed amount of time spent in activities necessary to obtain, use, and recover from substance use.
6. Important social, occupational, or recreational activities are given up due to substance use.
7. Substance use is continued despite the knowledge of having reccurring problems that are likely to have been caused by substance use.

When the use of alcohol, tobacco, or other chemicals has caused concern, or because it has begun to interfere with your physical, psychological, and/or social/spiritual life, you need to talk to a competent, knowledgeable, and caring professional to help you find answers and solutions that work for you.

Your first consultation is free and all consultations are strictly confidential.

CADDTP - California Association of Drinking Driver Treatment Programs

Sunday, December 16th, 2007

CADDTP - California Association of Drinking Driver Treatment Programs

The California Association of Drinking Driver Treatment Programs, also commonly referred to as “CADDTP”, is a non-profit, mutual benefit organization, which was originally formed as an association in 1986 and then incorporated in 1988.  CADDTP is self-supported through membership dues, association activities, and contributions. CADDTP’s policies are established by a volunteer board of directors, which is elected from among those individuals who are the designated representatives of organizational members.

There are several categories of active membership in CADDTP:

(1) organizational membership is limited to state-licensed driving-under-the-influence, or “DUI”, programs;
(2) individual membership is open to most individuals; and
(3) associate membership is designated for those other organizations who wish to participate in and support the Association.
CADDTP is a pro-active organization which seeks to promote understanding of, improve, and sometimes preserve, the role of the state-licensed driving-under-the-influence (education and counseling) programs in California’s approach to alcohol and other drug impaired driving. CADDTP also seeks to evaluate and enhance the services offered by its members and others in providing DUI programs throughout the state.
CADDTP’s organizational membership currently includes a majority of the several hundred DUI programs licensed by the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs. Almost 200 persons, most of who are employed in DUI programs as counselors, instructors, and/or administrators, comprise CADDTP’s individual membership.
CADDTP holds semi-annual educational forums, open to both members and non-members. These forums include issues that address both the internal and external concerns of DUI program operators and staff members.

CADDTP places heavy emphasis on regular communications with its membership about the Association’s activities and developments in the DUI field. Such communication is primarily accomplished through periodic newsletters, regular reports on legislation, other “special” reports, and bulletins. Meetings of the CADDTP’s board of directors and members are held at least twice a year preceding the educational forums.
There is a growing body of evidence that California’s system of license sanctions AND DUI education/counseling programs are the most effective ways to reduce subsequent DUI incidents among those who have been convicted of DUI. (Source: California Department of Motor Vehicles’ 1995 through 2005 Annual Reports of the California DUI Management Information System) California’s DUI program network is arguably the most inclusive, structured, and complex one in the United States: (1) all the programs in that network must be licensed by the state and monitored by their respective counties, (2) they must conform to statewide education, counseling, and other requirements, and (3) with minor and controlled exceptions for rural areas, all of the programs in the network must be self-supporting through fees paid by participants. Yet, by law no one who is unable to pay can be denied services.

For two decades, the California DUI program network has been providing services to well over 120 thousand impaired drivers per year at no cost to taxpayers. Even though the total number of DUI-related fatalities has risen slightly in the past several years, they are still markedly lower that they were before California’s DUI program system was established.  DUI-related arrests have also dramatically lowered during this time, and recidivism continues to decline.   CADDTP believes that future studies and evaluations will show that the DUI programs are not only an important component in preventing recidivism, but that they are also a wide-reaching and effective means of moving alcohol and other drug dependent individuals toward long-term recovery. CADDTP will continue to work to improve and promote understanding of those programs.
