1 Fiscal Year 2014 Annual Report Our Community. Our Recovery. Our Future. Residential Treatment Outpatient Service Medication Assisted Recovery Education and Prevention Recovery Housing Drug-Free Workplace Continuum of Care

2 Quest Mission Statement To serve our community by providing education, prevention, and treatment of alcohol, drugs, and other addictive behaviors. Quest Board of Directors Terri Roth- Chair Shannon English Hexamer- Vice Chair Carrie Sibila- Treasurer Eric Belden Larry Blasiman James Bower James Conley Larry Durian Carla Frank Lorrie Fuchs Lynnette Gallina Barbara Kessler The Reverend Doctor Darla Ann Kratzer Ann Davies Moyer Robert G. Morlan- Emeritus, Non-Voting Our Mission Message to the Community Quest Recovery and Prevention Services completed an exciting year of growth during Fiscal Year The year saw many accomplishments and enhancements to our services and programs. Changes to our health systems brought about by The Affordable Care Act and Ohio s Medicaid Expansion made behavioral health services and in particular, alcohol and drug treatment and recovery services, accessible to more consumers. The continuation of these programs, at least in the near future, will allow those in need to receive all of the services that are associated with a recovery oriented lifestyle. In November 2013, Quest Recovery & Prevention Services opened BRIGHT House, a non-medical residential treatment center for adolescent females. This 12 bed facility is one of only a few alcohol and drug treatment residential facilities for adolescent females and serves not only Stark County but surrounding counties as well. Quest has also continued to enhance its treatment and recovery of those impacted by the Opiate epidemic. By expanding staff, medication options and improving access to services, the Medication Assisted Recovery Program has strived to meet the urgent needs of those struggling with heroin and prescription Opiates. Quest continues to expand services where it fits the community need. The desire for a Recovery Oriented Community where those who have been impacted by substance use issues can recover, work, and succeed is moving forward. On behalf our clients, staff, and Board of Directors, I thank you for the tremendous support of the community and look forward to enhancing the continuum of services Quest offers. Respectfully, Keith Hochadel President & CEO

4 Our Programs Deliverance House Our women s residential facility continues to see sustained growth in the number of clients we serve. We served 57 women in FY 2014 and an astonishing 42% remained abstinent six months after treatment; a figure that is almost twice the state average. Deliverance House was also the direct beneficiary of over $16,000 in charitable gifts which included new patio furniture, a playground, and a meditation water feature and garden. SMITH House Smith House continues to distinguish itself among state-wide adolescent residential programs. Adolescent males come from all over Ohio to receive our comprehensive treatment program which focuses on instilling the morals and values of truth, honesty, and self-responsibility. Smith House has a maximum capacity of 16 males who stay at the facility for up to 120 days. Just like BRIGHT House, Smith House residents receive on-line schooling in order to ensure they don t fall behind academically.

These facilities include offices in Canton, Massillon, Alliance, Minerva, and Carrollton. In all, our counselors saw 2415 adult clients and 195 adolescent clients last year. Quest also conducts weekly counseling groups for veterans of the armed forces, a program for families of substance abusers, and other gender and population specific groups. Prevention Services Quest continues to enhance its prevention programming. Last year we added eight schools to prevention, including four in Carroll County, bringing our total number of schools served to 20 and serving almost 1,200 students. This is done through our evidence-based programs which are specifically designed for particular age groups.

6 Our Programs Lake Erie Correctional Institute Quest runs counseling programs at Lake Erie Correctional Institute; a medium-security correctional facility located in Conneaut, Ohio. During FY 2014, Quest staff treated 121 inmates who received substance abuse counseling in both a group and individual setting. The goal of this program is to give inmates the coping skills necessary to live a drug-free life after their release. Quest Continuing Education Quest is dedicated to not only the continuing education of our staff, but also the community and others working in the field of counseling. As a result, Quest offers a CDCA Academy designed to provide 40 hours of training for those entering the chemical dependency field to obtain their entry level credential of Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant (CDCA). We also offer a comprehensive OCPS Academy that allows people to gain the basic knowledge needed to enter in to the profession of prevention. By becoming an Ohio Certified Prevention Specialist (OCPS), one is able to provide high quality prevention services to students and the community. Drug-Free Workplace Urine Drug Screens Quest offers the highest quality in urinalysis and hair follicle testing. We offer testing at our Canton, Alliance, and Massillon outpatient offices, residential sites, and provide on-site collections for schools and businesses. In FY 2014, we collected 12,313 specimens for testing and expect this number to grow as more companies and schools realize the benefit of instituting drug testing policies. The Occupational Health & Safety Administration reports that almost 13 million individuals actively use drugs in the workforce. Quest tries to prevent this from happening by conducting drug-free workplace trainings for supervisors and employees, drug testing, and outpatient services. During FY 2014, Quest performed educational classes and drug testing services to 15 companies in Stark County and surrounding communities.
