(Limit '/2 page) Show that the applicant agency has the resources and necessary skill set to adequately manage the project. Describe collaboration with other agencies and groups in the community. As its mission,"North Range Behavioral Health provides professional, culturally competent behavioral health services for Weld County." Known previously as the Weld Mental Health Center, Inc.,North Range Behavioral Health (NRBH)has served the mental health needs of the people in this area for more than four decades. From 1995 to 1997, it functioned as the Mental Health Assessment Service Agency (MHASA)for Weld County. In 1998,NRBH joined with the Larimer Center for Mental Health and Centennial Mental Health Center to form Northeast Behavioral Health Partnership, which is now the Behavioral Health Organization (BHO) for Weld County,Larimer County, and the 12 counties comprising the northeastern corner of Colorado. NRBH has developed numerous collaborative efforts over the years. NRBH has worked with staff from School District 6 and other Weld County school districts to provide on-site mental health services to students of Centennial, Dos Rios, and Cameron Elementary Schools and Northridge, Greeley Central, Jefferson and Greeley West High Schools. A positive working relationship between the Family Education Network of Weld County and NRBH enables selected Head Start students to receive mental health care in their schools. Staff of NRBH also worked collaboratively with staff of the Platte Valley Youth Services Center(PVYSC) and with the Juvenile Services Planning Committee(Senate Bill 94 or SB 94)to provide basic mental health services to detained youth. In addition,NRBH was again awarded a JABG grant for the current fiscal year that helped provide services to juveniles while they are detained. NRBH is a regular participant in meetings of the local Juvenile Services (SB94)Planning Committee, local JABG,the Greeley-Evans Prevention Council, the Weld County Community Juvenile Review Board, and the Weld County Child Abuse Team. NRBH is a member of the Weld County Interagency Oversight Group and works with A Kid's Place in the reviewing and updating of the Weld County Child Abuse Protocol. An NRBH administrator is a member of the Board of Directors of A Kid's Place,which operates the local children's advocacy center and the Court Appointed Special Advocate(CASA)program. A related collaborative effort, Promises for Children, is now in place as well, necessitated by continuing needs in the community. An ongoing collaborative effort called the Multidisciplinary Youth Assessment Team (MYAT) is now in its eighth year. Comprised of the Weld County Department of Human Services(WCDHS), Weld County Probation, St.Vrain School District, Life Bridge Church and NRBH, this team has planned for and developed a community-wide system to meet various needs of youth and families in conflict or in need of positive youth development. NRBH has also joined in a community collaborative resulting in the formation of Youth and Family Connections (formerly the Juvenile Assessment Center [JAC]), an agency designed to assess, provide crisis intervention and triage services to appropriate services for juveniles in the community. -3 - FY2011 JABG Application Direct Awards(3-2012) SECTION III PROJECT SUMMARY 1. PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION (Limit 1 page) Clearly describe the problem to be addressed in the application. Use local and/or state data to describe the nature and extent of the problem. The data should be relevant to the specific the geographical area and the target population. Cite the sources of these data. Weld County, extending from Denver to the south,to Nebraska to the east, and to Wyoming in the north, covers an area of nearly 4,000 square miles. It contains 31 incorporated towns and 12 school districts. Greeley is the only area within the county that is classified as "urban,"and serves as the county seat. The trends that have led the County to implement treatment courts argue for the establishment of the continuation of this grant-funded service line. These trends, including sharp increases in population for this rural and frontier county, coupled with its geographic configuration and cultural diversity, have made it one of the fastest growing counties in the U. S. Local justice and mental health/substance use disorder agencies are adversely impacted by this growth, leading to unacceptable results, such as regularly exceeding the capacity of the 26-bed regional youth detention center; an increase in emergency releases; and the consideration of additional jail facilities to accommodate juvenile offender growth. The estimated population of Weld County was approximately 148,000 in 1995, and has grown to an estimated 254,759 in 2009,according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Moreover, the County's Hispanic(Latino) population is growing faster than other populations with 84.01% growth from 1990 to 2000, as compared to 59.58% for all non-Hispanic citizens. Hispanics continue to make up 28%of Weld County's population. The juvenile population between the ages of 10-18 is 29,859. Further, according to the 2009 American Community Survey, 14% of people living in Weld County were in poverty, and 15% of related children under 18 years of age were below the poverty level. According to U.S. Census figures, in 1999, 80%of Weld County households earned less than $75,000 per year. The Census showed in 2008 that the median income for Weld County residents was $55,845. The use of the County's approved juvenile detention center bed capacity has also continued to increase. Based on Average Daily Population (ADP)figures provided through the SB 94 program (another state- local collaborative program that serves youth on pretrial through diversion and other programs),the County exceeded its bed capacity at the jail in Weld County for several months throughout the year. To accommodate the excessive capacity,there have been approximately 18 emergency releases so far this fiscal year in 2012. Because of the public safety and health issues raised by these emergency releases,the Board of County Commissioners has had ongoing discussions about the possibility of implementing more evidence-based programs designed to treat at risk youth within the community, i.e. Multisystemic Therapy (MST). We have identified youth struggling with symptoms of oppositional defiant and conduct disorder as potential recipients of the grant-funded services. These youth have been identified as target population because of their struggle, and their sibling's struggles,to maintain behaviors that are not in conflict with our criminal justice system. It is the intention of NRBH to utilize grant dollars to provide a continuum of behavioral health(both mental health and substance use disorder)treatment in order to intervene effectively with youth who are either at risk for criminal behavior(i.e.,prevention services provided at the Juvenile Assessment Center)and/or intervention services (i.e., services provided at the detention center, Platte Valley Youth Services Center). -4- FY2011 JABG Application Direct Awards(3-2012) 2.

Provide a narrative description of the population to be served including age, gender, race/ethnicity and other characteristics of those the project is intending to serve and describe how gender/culture/language issues will be addressed. Monies awarded as a result of this proposal will be applied to NRBH services at Platte Valley Youth Services Center. Youth served are juvenile offenders who have been detained as a result of criminal activity or inability to maintain in the community solely with the support of probation services. NRBH is committed to providing culturally competent services to all consumers. To achieve this goal, all clinicians are required to participate in a minimum of three cultural competency trainings each evaluation year. In addition,NRBH has committed to provide a bi-cultural bi-lingual counselor at PVYSC and ensures that consumer preferences are met in any intervention provided. Gender sensitivity is achieved by providing both a male and female counselor at PVYSC and offering youth the choice of whom they prefer to work with. Services provided to youth who are emergency released are provided in-home so that family culture may be adequately addressed. .5- FY2011 JABG Application Direct Awards(3-2012) • 3. PROJECT PLAN A. PROJECT DESCRIPTION (Limit 1 %pages) Describe in detail the proposed approach to addressing the identified problem. There should be a clear link between the approach and the problem described above. Include a description of the services and activities to be provided, cite evidence of the effectiveness of the approach selected, and discuss experience implementing the approach. If this request is for part of a larger program, the project (and associated costs) must be clearly delineated. These funds support behavioral health services, which will be provided to juveniles in Weld County through multiple agencies: North Range Behavioral Health will deliver a continuum of mental health and substance use disorder services to both detained youth from Weld County at Platte Valley Youth Services Center and non-detained youth involved in the juvenile justice system. Services to be provided will include risk and needs assessments of juvenile offenders, crisis intervention, mental health and substance use disorder treatment(behavioral health treatment)provided in both individual and group formats, and referrals to ongoing behavioral health care services as needed. Partners in this collaboration include North Range Behavioral Health, Senate Bill 94 of the l9`' Judicial District, Juvenile, and Youth and Family Connections (formerly the Juvenile Assessment Center). Through this proposal,NRBH seeks to be able to continue to quickly and appropriately identify, assess, evaluate, and treat detained youth who are in need of behavioral health services; to communicate effectively with the juvenile court, probation officers, human service workers, detention facility staff, mental health and substance abuse therapists, school personnel, caregivers/guardians, and pertinent others about each referred youth; and to provide timely behavioral health services to those identified as needing such services. JABG funds have helped accomplish many of these tasks in past years. Because of restrictions on staff time and clearance requirements, youth served by grant funds would have no other assessment and treatment options while being detained at PVYSC. -6- FY2011 JABG Application Direct Awards(3-2012) B. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: (Limit 3 pages) Provide project/program goals, objectives, activities, outcomes and outcome indicators, measurement tools, and timeframe using the format provided.

For the previous three years of funding, provide a cumulative evaluation of the impact produced in the target population as a result of receiving program services. Include supporting documentation. Describe the youth that were served, services provided, and dosage. Discuss progress towards achieving your goals, objectives and outcomes. Also discuss how it was confirmed your project has made progress towards successfully achieving the stated goal. All goals and objectives for the current fiscal year will be met or exceeded based on data gathered through 12/31/2011. Timely evaluation, case management, and treatment services have been delivered to all youth referred. Specifically, 24-hour responses provided to youth referred, as well as to relevant stakeholders and referral sources, occurred more than 90% of the time. Fortunately, we have seen a decrease in the number of emergency releases; however, the current rate of emergency releases at approximately four per month continues to make the number of new referrals relatively high and makes continuity of care a challenge for those being unexpectedly released into the community. To impact this dynamic, we have maintained the changes in staffing patterns to include the use of an intern, increased hours at the beginning and end of the week, and have increased staff in our Youth and Family Team. Again this year, we were saddened to find that Hispanic youth were disproportionately represented among youth in detention at PVYSC, though there was a decrease in Hispanic youth detained overall. Of the 619 youth served last fiscal year, 62.2% were Hispanic, 35% were Caucasian, 3% were African American, and .3% were Asian. In addition, males made up 74% of the total number of youth served and females accounted for the remaining 26%. It is exciting to look back upon the last three years of funding and see the widespread impact that this funding has had on the community. We have been able to screen, serve, and refer more than 1,500 youth. This is tremendous. Youth were assessed for mental health/substance abuse problems. Triage services were provided that included prescreens for the court, extensive case management with the courts, caseworkers, probation officers, and their families. Without this funding,these youth would be booked into detention and released without services or referral for a higher level of intervention. There has been a drastic increase in the number of youth who were referred to services and followed up upon release. 2. Describe the objectives that were partially achieved or not achieved, and any problems encountered, provide an explanation. All goals were met from the previous reporting periods. 3. Share any information learned that was not part of the original evaluation design. For example, unintended results, lessons learned, and challenges overcome. Because of the continued increase in emergency releases,NRBH has had to refine the screening tool used upon first contact so that time spent with clients has become more efficient. In addition, we have increased our collaboration with the court and other community partners and begun staffing cases more frequently so that we can provide the most appropriate services to youth more quickly. In order to address the needs of youth who are emergency released from PVYSC, NRBH has developed a proposal to submit to Senate Bill 94 requesting that funds historically used to supplement JABG awards be re-directed to support evidenced-based community based services such as Functional Family Therapy (FFT) and Multisystemic Therapy (MST). 4. Describe any significant project changes (programmatic or budgetary) in this proposal from previously funded projects. There are no anticipated project changes in this proposal from previously funded projects. - 10- FY2011 JABG Application Direct Awards(3-2012) • SECTION V- PROJECT EVALUATION 1. Describe how the project will be evaluated in response to the state objectives, outcomes and measurement. Provide information about the following(Limit 1 page): a. Describe the plan for collecting data on each specified outcome using the identified measurement tools; Youth who enter PVYSC are matched with NRBH staff for an intake. It is at this time that the data collection process begins. An internal tracking system is in place using a simple database. Youth are reported on daily and contacts entered into the system. Youth are monitored for activity and outcomes through our center documentation and tracking system. b. Discuss how the data will be measured once collected and where will the data be stored or entered; Once collected, data is measured daily, quarterly, and yearly for outcomes in the agency database. The following indicators are collected and reported: age, ethnicity, gender, prior treatment history, recidivism, and current needs. c. Discuss how the collected data will be analyzed; The above indicators are looked at separately and cumulatively to determine any trends from previous years, and progress toward outcome benchmarks. Advances and barriers help determine the approach for future funding cycles and inform providers on the needs of the juveniles being served in our community. d. Discuss the intended used of the data outside of DCJ reporting requirements; and Data is not used outside of DCJ reporting requirements. Data collected and analyzed is done so only for this project. e. Discuss how and what types of consent will be obtained from participants and how confidentiality is maintained. All youth receive a HIPAA and Disclosure Statement detailing the agency policy and procedure on confidentiality. Those guidelines are followed. Pertinent Releases of Information are signed when discussion with community partners is warranted. 2. Will research be conducted as part of this project?

Describe the steps you have taken to diversify your funding sources, and/or incorporate this project into local funding sources indicating broad-based community support. (Limit 1/2 pages) NRBH has made a commitment to work as a collaborative partner in the Weld County Juvenile Treatment Court. In addition,the Division of Youth Corrections has partnered with NRBH through a contract to provide services to youth and families post-commitment,to ensure successful reintegration into the community. NBRH has also begun implementing the Transitions for Independence Program (TIP),which provides case management services designed to support youth who are on track to emancipate or live independently without the support of a family. These services will include case management to qualifying youth and families as well as services designed to link youth and families to community supports designed to increase accountability. Finally, prevention services have been developed, i.e.the Day Reporting Center, in the spirit of decreasing the need for detention center services. - 12- FY2011 JABG Application Direct Awards(3-2012) SECTION VII- BUDGET List by category,the project costs being requested in this application.
