The
fusion formula has
helped us make the best use of shrinking human service dollars while
remaining an advocate for our clients. In its first year of operation,
the integrated Agency cut costs by $120,000. The savings were used to
develop new programs, creating approximately 20 new jobs for the area. |

Our
performance-based contracts with area service providers establish
measures of accountability for programs and clinical services. Each
contract is outcomes-based and monitored through site visits by our
staff. About one-third of our services are
provided through contracts with the private sector.
Cost-benefit ratio
programming tracks client outcomes to ensure quality programs and
services. Each client’s service plan establishes clearly defined goals
and objectives. This helps us to monitor program costs versus
effectiveness. |
