This manual documents Arapahoe House's intensive case management homelessness prevention program. Arapahoe House successfully bidded for a contract to implement and evaluate the Project to Reduce Over-Utilization of Detoxification Services (PROUD) in the state of Colorado. The model designed by Arapahoe House consists of an intensive case management intervention in which a team of case managers works in pairs or dyads with chronic users of detoxification services. These individuals are characterized by severe substance use disorders, and, in at least half the cases, serious mental illness. The population also includes those who are homeless, those at-risk of becoming homeless, and those formerly homeless. Intended outcomes of the program include reduction in subsequent use of detoxification services, and homelessness prevention. This manual describes the model itself and case management strategies used. [abstract]
