Sexual Assault and Chemical Dependency: The Crisis of Addiction

Guest Speaker

Sabrina D. Morris, PCC-S, MSEd, is the director and founder of Tri-County Mental Health & Counseling Services' Jackson, Ohio Clinic.  The clinic provides comprehensive behavioral healthcare to children, adolescents, and their families. Ms. Morris has dedicated herself to working in the community mental health field for over 20 years.  She has acknowledged educational and professional competencies in serving a comprehensive array of consumers; such as, family systems, chemically-dependent, dual-diagnosed, GLBT, and forensic populations.  Overall, her focus has been working within Appalachian cultures.  Ms. Morris takes an integral, strength-based approach emphasizing socio-cultural, neuro-biological, and developmental influences while considering cognitive, behavioral, and affective components.
Ms. Morris has designed, implemented, and evaluated the school-based Crisis Responding Program named Teen Talk, within the three school districts in Jackson County, OH.  The programs' objectives are to provide comprehensive mental health assessments and to link students to needed behavioral healthcare services while diverting severely mentally ill children and adolescents away from the Juvenile Justice System.  Since the initial inception of the first Teen Talk program, many juveniles have been successfully diverted from receiving charges as well as reducing the rate of recidivism.   Due to the success of the Teen Talk Programs, Ms. Morris is working with local school districts, the juvenile courts, and families to bring Kid Talk into the elementary schools.
