| Abstract:
Given a finite set of resources, it can be challenging to design and implement a quality evaluation of a dynamic, multi-stakeholder system encompassing regional, initiative, and countywide tiers. Valuing plays a critical role in determining which components of an overall system to focus on regarding evaluation design, methodology, and utilization. This roundtable will discuss challenges associated with assigning value in a complex prevention system located across San Diego County and consisting of multiple programs. Presenters will share their experiences, strategies, and lessons learned about how valuing was carried out during the planning and implementation phases of a countywide multi-initiative alcohol and other drug (AOD) prevention system evaluation project. Attendees will also have the opportunity to share their challenges, experiences, and effective strategies for prioritizing and incorporating values into their evaluations of dynamic, multi-stakeholder systems.

| Abstract:
The Recovery Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC) is in part an ecological systems theory that demonstrates comprehensive ways to meet the needs of individuals and families seeking alcohol, drug and mental health services. When compared to its alternative, the Acute Care (AC) model, the ROSC provides long-term recovery outcomes, requires the participation of all stakeholders, and facilitates dialogue among service providers and clients. This relatively new conceptual framework and how it can be used in evaluation research, is still unclear to evaluators. The knowledge derived from this study will aid in understanding the ROSC and its feasibility for practice. This paper addresses the following questions: 1) what is the ROSC model? 2) How can its use improve the delivery of behavioral health? 3) How is it relevant to evaluation and research? The author intends to use an instrumental case study to explore the extent of the model's implementation as designed.
