          Abstract

          Systems of care represent a fundamental departure from traditional service provision by espousing genuine family-centered, culturally competent philosophies and blending the funding streams of multiple payers (e.g., education, mental health, child welfare). In Marion County, Indiana, local leaders created a system of care based on these principles called the Dawn Project. Currently, a comprehensive, multidisciplinary evaluation is being implemented to evaluate the program. Preliminary findings from initial evaluation efforts suggest that for youth in the project, there is significant clinical improvement during the first year of receiving services, a reduction in the use of more restrictive settings, and a decrease in recidivism among those who successfully complete the program.
