Re: Mental Health America Los Angeles, the Village and Wellness Center Outcomes
and Clients Served
March 2014
NUMBERS SERVED
You asked the total number of people that we have served at the Village. That
number is 6,396 unduplicated members since we opened our doors in July, 1990.
MORS Distribution
You asked for the distribution of Milestones of Recovery Scale (MORS) scores of our
clients. We measure the MORS scores every month so they change over time. Here
are the most recent Village and Wellness Center MORS scores for February, 2014.
Note that the Village has fewer members at the higher levels of recovery than the
Wellness Center. This makes sense because as members recover and need less
care, we move them to our Wellness Center.
VILLAGE:
Level of Recovery
WELLNESS:
Level of Recovery
You also asked for our results regarding homelessness, hospitalization and
incarceration. Below are the numbers of members and the number of days they
spent either homeless, hospitalized and incarcerated in the year PRIOR to coming
into the Village compared to the number of members and the number of days they
spent in those three statuses AFTER their enrollment. Because their length of time
in the Village varies, we have ANNUALIZED the post-enrollment days to make them
comparable to the year prior to enrollment.
Hospitalization
# Pre-Enrollment
Pre Members 149
# Pre-Enrollment Days 5,991
-
Po # Post-Enrollment 74.50 decrease in number of
st Members 38 % members
-
35.55
# Post-Enrollment Days 3,861 % decrease in number of days
Incarceration
# Pre-Enrollment
Pre Members 106
# Pre-Enrollment Days 12,109
-
Po # Post-Enrollment 96.23 decrease in number of
st Members 4 % members
-
88.07
# Post-Enrollment Days 1,444 % decrease in number of days
Homelessness
# Pre-Enrollment
Pre Members 252
# Pre-Enrollment Days 52,598
-
Po # Post-Enrollment 56.35 decrease in number of
st Members 110 % members
-
34.43
# Post-Enrollment Days 34,490 % decrease in number of days
So, for example, there are 149 Village members who were hospitalized for a total of
5,991 days in the year PRIOR to enrollment, but there were only 38 members who
were hospitalized for a period of 3,861 days since they came into the Village.
EMPLOYMENT
Our employment data are a bit complicated because we get referrals for
employment services from the Department of Rehabilitation as well as from our
Village FSP program.
During the last year, we received 30 referrals for job development services from DR.
Of those 30 referrals, 17 got jobs in the community, or about 57%.
During the last year, 34 Village members were referred from their FSP team for job
development in the community. Of those 34, 25 got jobs in the community, or
about 74%. We also had 46 referrals for in-house work adjustment services (that is,
working in the Deli, or in clerical or maintenance services).
