Southern Nevada Child and Adolescent Services (SNCAS) provides assessment, care coordination, and comprehensive continuum of mental and behavioral health care services for severely emotionally disturbed children and adolescents from birth through 18 years of age in accordance with NRS 433B. Children served are uninsured, under-insured, or Medicaid recipients. Non-emergent services are provided in three Neighborhood Family Service Centers in different regions of the Las Vegas community. SNCAS services are both office- and home-based and include: early childhood mental health services; early childhood day treatment; outpatient mental health services providing individual, group and family therapies; psychiatric evaluation and treatment; intensive targeted case management services through the Wrap-Around in Nevada Program evidence-based High Fidelity Wraparound model or "FOCUS" model of care coordination; and mobile crisis response services that operate 24/7 throughout Clark County and provide live 24/7 telephone hotline coverage for the entire state. Residential services are provided at the West Charleston campus and the Desert Willow Treatment Center (DWTC), which provide inpatient acute psychiatric and residential treatment center services. Services are provided in strength-based, individualized processes that respect and value the family's decision-making and culture by using the Child and Family Team process. The Division of Child and Family Services' (DCFS) residential programs have also engaged in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Building Bridges initiative. The mission of the Building Bridges Initiative is to identify and promote practice and policy that will create strong and closely-coordinated partnerships and collaborations between families, youth and community to ensure that comprehensive services and supports are family-driven, youth-guided, strength-based, culturally- and linguistically-competent, individualized, evidence- and practice-informed, and consistent with the research on sustained positive outcomes. DCFS residential services are monitored by the Commission on Behavioral Health and licensed by the county and state. DWTC is certified by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. The goal for every child is to provide services within the least restrictive environment and support remaining in, or returning to, family care with the support of community-based services. SNCAS is involved with the statewide efforts to transform the current Children's Mental Health System of Care to more comprehensively accomplish this goal. Statutory Authority: NRS 433, 433A and 433B.
