| HISTORY OF ASSESSMENTS AT CCADP |
In April 1989, CCADP began to do assessments in the Detox area at 725 N. LaCrosse. In July, 1989, the
law changed to require anyone with a .17 BAC or higher to be assessed for chemical dependency. The law
also required anyone who refused a PBT or blood test to be assessed. At that time the courts used CCADP
to do any court ordered assessments for the county and assessments were scheduled during morning
Magistrate court which was presided over by Judge Kluck and conducted in the courthouse by Doug
Austin. The assessments required a 5 day turn-around to the courts and Doug would dictate a
bio/psycho/social assessment to a secretary who would type them up. In 1990, a second counselor was
hired to do assessments for DUI's. In 1992, Assessments moved from Detox to the Courthouse. In 1994,
Judge Tice allowed Chemical Dependency assessments to be conducted by other accredited agencies in
Rapid City. In 1999, City- County changed the format to utilize the ASAM criteria. In 2002,
Assessments were moved back to CCADP in the upstairs portion of the building. . In 2006, assessments
are conducted by three counselors in the upstairs portion of CCADP. |
