WHY PAY FOR SUCCESS?

Substance use is an immediate social and
economic problem
Impacts service array / availability of substance use
services
Increases reliance on costly out-of-home Placements
Increases length of out-of-home placements and
likelihood of re-referrals
…with compounding long term consequences
Continued Involvement with DCF (both for Families, and
for Youth “Aging Out”)
High Cost of Child Maltreatment
High Cost to State and Taxpayers

FAMILY-BASED RECOVERY (FBR)

Model
Components
Substance Use Treatment: Reinforcement-Based Treatment (RBT), an evidence-based
substance use program originating from Johns Hopkins University
Parent-child Attachment Component: Coordinated Intervention for Women and Infants
(CIWI) theory, attachment-based parent-child treatment developed at the Yale School of
Medicine
Motivational Interviewing techniques enhance in-home treatment
Families receive Case Management services to cope with occupational challenges,
transportation, and linkages to community-based services
FBR Social Club provides group therapy and is available for all current and previous
FBR clients
FBR promotes stable families, and safe and permanent homes for children
Intervention
Overview
Overview: FBR is an intensive, in-home parent-child attachment program for
families with young children at risk for: abuse and or neglect, poor development
outcomes, and/or removal, due to parental substance use
History: Family Based Recovery was developed in 2006 at the Yale Child Study Center
− In 2010, DCF allocated funding to offer FBR services statewide; currently ten FBR
teams are operating in CT, serving ~240 families each year
Evidence Base: The University of Connecticut Health Center conducted a Quasi-
experimental evaluation of FBR from 2007 to 2011; results indicated a 10.0 percentage
point decrease in the rate of removals at 12 months and a 12.1 percent point
decrease in the rate of referrals to DCF

FEMALE INCARCERATION IN OK
1) “Prisoners in 2015”. US Department of Justice. https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/p15.pdf
2) “Fact Sheet: Oklahoma Pay for Success: Family and Children’s Services – Women in Recovery”
3) “Report to the Governor, President Pro Tempore of the Senate, and Speaker of the House of Representatives”. Special Task Force for
Women Incarcerated in Oklahoma. http://digitalprairie.ok.gov/cdm/ref/collection/stgovpub/id/24545
4) Two main reasons for this: (1) women are more likely to need medical care in prison, and (2) female inmates are more likely to be custodial
parents, and society pays more to care for their children.

• Highest female incarceration rate in the nation (151
per 100,000) by a wide margin; almost double the US
avg.1
• Average cost to incarcerate women in OK is $30,133 per
prison term, not including indirect costs such as foster
care and social benefit programs2
• Cost to incarcerate women in OK is 31% higher than
for men3,4
• 62% of women in state prison in the US have children
under the age of 185
• Incarceration can have devastating effect on the family;
Russell Sage Foundation found incarceration in the US
is linked with a 64% decline in household assets6
