JUVENILE CRIME ENFORCEMENT COALITION (JCEC)
Leaders from agencies throughout the community came together to create the Weld
County Criminal Justice Advisory Board in the latter part of 1998 (SEE APPENDIX A).
Their function was five fold and included the following:
• To facilitate review, coordination,planning and continuous improvement of the
local criminal justice system within Weld County.
• To review and recommend local law enforcement block grant expenditure
requests by the Sheriff's Office to the Board of Weld County Commissioners and
comply with the requirements of the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant
Program.
• To approve the use of forfeited property or the expenditure of forfeited proceeds
by the seizing agency and comply with the requirements of C.R.S. 16-13-702,
Disposition of forfeited property, as amended.
• Develop, coordinate, and integrate an effective,efficient, comprehensive
continuum of jail alternative sentencing.
• Review, develop, and make recommendations to maintain a long term criminal
justice capital needs strategic plan.
A sub-committee of the Weld County Criminal Justice Advisory Committee has overseen
previous J.A.I.B.G. Grants and will continue to oversee this grant, it successful. This sub-
committee will serve as the Juvenile Crime Enforcement Coalition. The Weld County Criminal
Justice Advisory Committee meets on the second Tuesday of January,April, July, and October
of each year. The Juvenile Crime Enforcement Coalition will also meet on these dates and
additional dates, as necessary.
H. COMPLIANCE WITH THE JJDP ACT
To be eligible for JAIBG funds, the Division of Criminal Justice requires that the jurisdictions
within the applicant service area be certified by the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention
(JJDP) Council as being in compliance with Sections 223 (a)(11) (Deinstitutionalization of Status
Offenders); (a)(12) (Separation); (a)(13) (Jail Removal); and (aX22) (Disproportionate Minority
Contact) of the JJDP Act of 2002. If the service area includes multiple law enforcement
jurisdictions, all facilities operated by or under contract to each local unit of government included
in the area will be included in this certification. After the compliance monitor from the Division of
Criminal Justice completes the certification form and obtains necessary signatures, it will be given
to the project director listed on page 1 of the plan format for his/her files, and a copy will be kept at
DCJ.
Indicate your status of compliance:
X All jurisdictions have been certified to be in compliance.

III. ANALYSIS OF JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM NEEDS
Weld County encompasses over 4000 square miles with a very diverse population of
approximately 200,000. This population is projected to grow rapidly due to an influx of citizens
moving in from other states and the congestion being experienced in the Denver Metro area.
This population diversity includes different socio-economic groups,multi-cultural variances and
communities ranging from rural,to small town, to city,to major metropolitan area. The demo
graphics of Weld County has created a juvenile system which is centralized and not community
based. The resources and skills required to deal with the issues confronting juvenile justice is
also lacking. Due to Weld County's proximity to the Denver Metropolitan area and the rapid
population growth that Weld County is experiencing, these issues will increase.
Over the past several years the criminal justice system and more specifically the juvenile justice
system has been moving towards the philosophy of restorative justice. Towards that end, key
leaders are looking at changing the way our criminal justice system works. Open discussions are
occurring about what is working and what isn't throughout the system. In 2000, a conference
was held at the Aims Community College campus in conjunction with the Colorado Forum on
Restorative Justice, numerous stakeholders from both inside and outside the criminal justice
system met for discussion and training about the system. Additionally, a consultant was
obtained through a technical assistance grant from the Colorado Division of Criminal Justice to
examine the juvenile justice system in Weld County last year. His recommendations are still be
discussed throughout the system.
Last year, the Weld County District Attorney's Office filed 1,351 juvenile criminal cases. This
is an increase of 25% from the 1013 cases filed in 2001. It appears that in 2005 this trend will
continue.
Gang related activity and estimated gang recruitment and gang membership also seems to be
growing. This trend if left unchecked will have an additional impact on the criminal justice
system in Weld County.
IV. COORDINATION OF EFFORT
The J.A.I.B.G. proposed programs are recommended by a sub-committee of our Senate Bill 94 planning
committee, prior to being given final approval of our Weld County Criminal Justice Advisory Board. By
doing this,we gain the input from all of the members of this group. This group represents those
professionals that on a daily basis are on the front lines of the juvenile justice system.
IV. ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS
There will be no administrative costs associated with this grant. These costs are being absorbed
by the agencies involved in the programs. These costs should be noted as additional matching
funds above the requirements of this grant.
•
A. Identified Problem/Need and the Program Purpose Area Number
Problem: Through its work with JAIBG, its member agencies, and other areas of work in the
communities of Weld County,North Range Behavioral Health(NRBH) is acutely aware of the
variety of problems facing youths who come into contact with the juvenile justice system. Over
the past few years, progress has been made in the identification of detained juvenile offenders
who are in need of mental health services while they are detained and after they are released back
into the community. Recidivism rates remain higher than acceptable and are still increasing for
those juvenile offenders with identifiable mental health issues who have not received appropriate
mental health care. This project, in the past,has helped to improve the communication between
the numerous agencies, offices, institutions, and individuals involved with these juveniles but
more work remains to be done in terms of holding the youths accountable for their actions,
reducing recidivism, and ensuring greater integration of services in working with each juvenile.
Purpose Area:
12. Establishing and maintaining programs to conduct risk and needs assessments os
juvenile offenders that facilitate the effective early intervention and the provision
of comprehensive services, including mental health screening and treatment and
substance abuse testing and treatment to such offenders.
Output indicator: Number and percent of assessment staff with specialized training.
Short-term indictor: Number and percent of youth fully assessed.
Intermediate outcome indicator: Number and percent of youth who cannot receive identified
services (slots full, service not provided locally)
Summary of North Range Behavioral Health's focus within the Purpose Areas
Through this proposal,NRBH seeks to be able to continue to quickly and appropriately identify,
assess, evaluate, and treat those detained youth at the Platte Valley Youth Services Center
(PVYSC) who are in need of mental health services;to communicate effectively with the
juvenile court,probation officers, social services workers, detention facility staff, mental health
therapists, school personnel, and pertinent others about each referred individual; and to provide
timely mental health treatment to those identified in need of such. JAIBG funds have helped
accomplish some of these tasks in past years. NRBH again requests continued and increased
funding of its efforts. Through this grant, 20.00 hours(.50FTE) of a mental health clinician's
time will be made available weekly to serve these juveniles. This will allow 32 to 40 juveniles to
be admitted annually to treatment services. In addition to this, up to nine detainees may be seen
each day the therapist is on site at their own requests through "Counselor Alerts" or via referrals
made by the Court,the staffs of the PVYSC,the Weld County Department of Social Services
(WCDSS,) and Weld County Probation Services for crisis intervention. Many of the juveniles in
this latter group, expected to number between 110 and 120, do not need ongoing mental health
care but have an emergent or urgent need to speak to a trained counselor.
•
NRBH proposes to continue to be funded to provide both direct and indirect mental health
services to the referred juveniles and to improve its ability to communicate the results of
assessments, evaluations, and other interventions to the juvenile court and probation officers so
they may have more timely information concerning detained youths involved in this project.

Goal 1 Outcome Measures:
1. What will be measured? The time and date of referral,time and date of evaluation
will be tracked, as will be when the evaluation was delivered to the person or
office needing it. What services were delivered to whom and the total amount of
services delivered to each referral will be tracked as will be the impact of the
services.
2. How will it be measured? Data will be entered on the form developed in previous
years so that the activities can be measured. Provision of mental health services
will be documented and measured by written progress and case management notes
as well as by entries on a Staff Activity Log, a form already in existence and use at
NRBH. Each youth's service plan will be analyzed for compliance and success
data.
3. How will the results be analyzed? Progress notes, case management notes,
service plans, and Staff Activity Logs will be used to document the delivery of
services reflecting quantity, quality, and appropriateness of the services rendered.
Goal 1 Cost Needs: NRBH is seeking to cover the salary of the mental health therapist(s) who
will be delivering services to the juveniles. No other coverage for expenses incurred is being
sought.
B. Number of Juveniles Targeted to be Served including Cultural/Gender Competency Plan
White Hispanic/ African Native Asian/Pacific Multiracial/ Other Total
Latino American American Islander Multiethnic
Male 52 57 3 2 1 10 0 125
Female 12 17 2 2 0 2 0 35
It is projected there will be more than 700 detention admissions of Weld County youth to
PVYSC this fiscal year. This figure is not equal to the number of juveniles being admitted but to
the total number of admissions which is a duplicated count. NRBH proposes to serve at least
160 of those juveniles through this project.
Culturally competent services will be provided to all clients served by this project by staff from
the Intensive Children, Youth, and Family Services Program (ICYFS) with consultation when
needed from the Multi-Cultural Services Program of NRBH,which is housed at the Monfort
Children's Clinic. Following up on an initial round of training in cultural competency and
sensitivity in May 2002,NRBH provides additional training in this important area each fiscal
year. Similarly, gender specific services will be available to meet the identified needs of the
target population.
C. Evaluation and Long-term Plan
NRBH again seeks not only to continue but also to expand and enhance its capacity to provide
services to youths detained at the PVYSC. This project has served, and will continue to serve, as
a pilot or model for how initial triage and evaluation,treatment, and case management services
can be provided to this target population in a manner best suited to reducing recidivism and the
severity of repeat offenses for those who do re-offend. Ideally, a full array of mental health
services should be available to detained juveniles and their families. This project, as proposed,
when linked with the other services to youths provided by the NRBH ICYFS program will serve
as a larger step toward achieving that ideal. This will be especially true if a recently submitted
proposal to continue the NRBH Comprehensive Crisis Assessment and Treatment Services
(CCATS II)project is funded by the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Council.
NRBH is actively searching for additional funds to provide appropriate mental health services to
juveniles and their families.
The treatment and case management services to be delivered are part of a service plan developed
with and for each youth admitted to NRBH services. Some of the youths to be served by this
project will not complete their mental health services during the fiscal year, even some of those
who are referred early on in the year. NRBH will continue to track them once they do finish and
add their data to that of the others. Those who do finish will immediately help prove the value of
services such as these and demonstrate the need for continuing this work. Over the time this
project has been funded, the benefit of such services to the children and their families has been
clearly shown, demonstrating they do provide cost savings to the community and the state as the
mental health treatment costs are much less than those involved in detaining them and immensely
less than serving them as committed youth.
This project will continue to allow NRBH access to juveniles who otherwise would have nothing
to do with mental health care either because they would have refused it or never would have been
referred to it. Access is also gained to their siblings and other family members of the referred
youths, again expanding NRBH's ability to help others make positive changes in their lives.
Measurement of the achievement of the goals set forth herein will be ongoing with reports made
at required or requested intervals. Both positive and negative results will be used to modify plans
as the year progresses to realize maximum goal attainment and to ensure attainment of the
desired impact on the needs the therapists are striving to meet. NRBH will regularly evaluate
how best to serve the target population over the course of the new grant period. The efficacy of
various evaluation and treatment approaches will be studied to show what, if any, revamping of
services is indicated. Strong efforts will be made to improve communications with all others
involved in this project and the overall grant.
NRBH views this project as a necessary part of its services to the Weld County community and
will seek funding to perpetuate and expand it. NRBH will continue to look to JAIBG, Senate
Bill 94, federal, state, and other sources for continuing funding.
Evaluation of Services and Goal Attainment to Date
All goals and objectives for the current fiscal year will be met or exceeded, based on data
gathered through 6/30/04. Timely evaluation, case management, and treatment services have
been provided to all referred juveniles. The racial balance of those referred was markedly
different than expected with Hispanic/Latino youths comprising about 70%of those referred.
This also reflects the high percentage of detained youth who are Hispanic/Latino.
Timely responses to both the referred youths and to the agencies/individuals who referred them
occurred more than 95% of the time. The expected proportion of the youths seen under this grant
needed only crisis intervention services while detained. Ongoing services were offered to the rest
and included as part of their release plans.
D. Budget and Budget Narrative
Overall Budget
The overall budget for this project will be $48,442, broken down as follows:
1. Personnel: No such expenditures are planned.
2. Supplies and Operating: No support is being requested for costs anticipated for supplies
and operating expenses for this project.
3. Travel: No funds to cover travel expenses are being sought.
4. Equipment: No equipment expense is planned.
5. Contracted Consultant/Professional Services: Personnel expenses of$41,226 include the
salary, $29,922 and fringe benefits package, $11,304 for the clinical staff who will be
performing the services to be delivered. Fringe benefits account for 23% of gross salary
and are prorated based on the full time equivalent. Additional personnel expenses such as
the salaries of the Program Director and clinical supervisor are not included here nor is
grant support sought for them. Data from Mountain States Employers Council, Inc. of
Denver indicates the proposed salary is consistent with what is paid for equivalent
positions and employee qualifications in this area.

19TH JUDICIAL PROBATION
FEMALE OFFENDER PROGRAM FUNDING REQUEST
PROBLEM: Statistics in Weld County over the past several years indicate that for juvenile female
offenders there is/are:
• Increases in the total number of juvenile female offenders
• Increase in DA filings for juvenile female offenders
• Increases in commitments
• Decreases in out-of-home placement/treatment options available
• Increases in the length of time on probation
At an observational/empirical level it appears that we are seeing more and more juvenile female offenders
with a greater range of unidentified problems and unmet needs:
• Housing
• Employment
• Pregnancy
• Education
• Family
• Mental Health
• Substance Abuse
Additionally, the programs and services that are available are often not integrated into a comprehensive
planning strategy. Consequently, the probation officer can often become overwhelmed in reacting to the
sheer weight of the needs and numbers, instead of directing the plan.
Within the total population of juvenile female offenders there is a subset of extremely high-risk juvenile
females who present an even greater challenge to the Juvenile Probation Department. They have
significant histories of gang involvement, sexual assaults, drug and alcohol abuse, previous failed out-of-
home placements, suicide attempts, parental abandonment, depression, abusive relationships with
boyfriends, chronic educational failures, etc. Unfortunately, it is these juvenile females that are often
identified for commitment, primarily because they have failed to positively respond to previous services,
even when the service was inappropriate for the need.
PROJECT TITLE: Juvenile Female Offender Program @FOP)
PURPOSE AREA: Number 15. Establishing and maintaining programs to enable juvenile courts and
juvenile probation officers to be more effective and efficient in holding juvenile offenders accountable
and reducing recidivism.
SUMMARY OF FOCUS WITHIN THE PURPOSE AREA: To increase the number of juvenile
female offenders that will be served by this program, reduce revocations, reduce out-of-home placements,
expedite access to appropriate services and greater accountability. Through providing more intensive
supervision, weekly gender specific groups and the development of the Individual Probation Plan (IPP) a
greater number of young women will be served. This grant will enhance probation's current services
with the professional skills of Hawk II Systems, whose personnel are trained in specialty areas such as
family/group dynamics and substance abuse/mental health needs. This collaboration between probation,
•
Hawk II Systems and other service providers give broader service delivery and greater accountability to
this unique population.
GOAL 1: For each young woman referred, a collaborative, gender responsive, culturally sensitive
process that facilitates timely access to specific community programs, actively involves parents and/or
meaningful relations, and incorporates weekly groups, while simultaneously responding to the needs of
the probationer and the orders of the court. This rapid and meaningful response, reflected in the creation
of an Individualized Probation Plan(IPP), is a critical step in developing a comprehensive assessment,
activating appropriate substance abuse services, developing pro-social skills, maintaining accountability,
reducing revocations, and increasing the number of positive program completions.
Objective 1: To provide greater access to services/accountability to a minimum of 50 juvenile female
offenders utilizing the Individual Probation Plan (IPP).
Responsible
Time-Line Measurement Person
Through the use of the multi-disciplinary staffing team, the # of female JFOP
IPP will reflect the needs, services and collective inter-agency 10/01/04 to juveniles Probation

Objective 2: Provide weekly groups and collaborative case management to a minimum of 50
juvenile,female offenders facilitated by the contracted services of Hawk II Systems.

GOAL 1 INDICATORS
1. Output indicator:
• Caseload of grant funded probation officer.
Objective #1, the program will serve a minimum of 50 juvenile female probationers, assessed from
10/1/04 to 9/30/05 and recorded. For each of the probationers, an IPP staffing will be initiated and
documented by the grant funded probation officer, the IPP will be present in each probationer's file.
Review staffings for each probationer will be formally conducted every 30 days for up to 6 months.
Objective#2,the actual number of juvenile female probationers who attended the weekly JFOP group will
be counted, the assignment completed will be counted as well as the actual number completing /
graduating from the groups.
•
2. Short-term'indicator:
• Average number of supervision meetings per month.
Objective #1, each female offender accepted into the program will have a minimum of one supervision
contact per week, and may have up to five meetings or contacts per week. These supervision events are
based on the level of need, how recently the young woman was staffed into the program, the number of
supportive services being provided, and her general day to day level of functioning.
Objective #2, each group attended by parent and child, each weekly peer group session, each session on
parenting held in the family's home, and each collaborative in-home or in-community contact will also be
considered a significant part of the overall supervisory structure, and will vary depending on the level of
need and/or functioning.
• Number and percent of non-compliance events (missed court dates,positive UA's)
Objective #1, the percentage of compliance or non-compliance events, based on a behavioral baseline
established at the time of referral to include drug testing will be recorded at each of the monthly IPP
staffings. Parents, private providers and other supportive agencies will have opportunities to review and
report on the progress to date and help in the development of the next month's goals.
Objective #2, the percentage of compliance or non-compliance will be recorded by the attendance and
assignments completed at each of the groups provided. This information will then be reported at the
monthly IPP staffing.
3. Intermediate Outcome Indicator:
• Number and percent of youth to complete their justice requirements successfully.
Results of Objective 1, measurements will be analyzed by comparing the total number of juvenile female
probationers to those actually served. As part of the analysis, there is an expectation that 100 percent of
the FOP girls will have an IPP staffing each month during the time in the program. These staffings will
provide a formal method of data collection while giving on going feedback to the youth and her parents.
Results of Objective 2 will be analyzed by reviewing the recidivism rate of the JFOP participants to those
of the general female offender population. 37 or 75% of the original youth identified will successfully
complete this six-month program. While being in the program for the entire six months is important,
completing the IPP goals will be the benchmark for successful program graduation.
GOAL 1 COST NEEDS: Cost of baseline drug testing,confirmation testing, and case management.
•
NUMBER OF JUVENILES TARGETED: 50 juvenile (ages 10-18) female probationers will be
targeted with an estimated ethnic composition of: 40% Caucasian, 50% Hispanic, and 10% Native
American or other heritage.
White Hispanic/Latin African Native Asian/Pacifi Multiracia Other Totals

Males 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Females 20-26 25-38 0-3 5-8 0 0 0 50-75
C. Evaluation and Long-term Plan
Success will be achieved when 100% (a minimum of 50 annually) of all juvenile female probationers has
received greater access to services through the use of the multi-disciplinary staffing and the IPP, and has
been provided with weekly groups and collaborative case management. Goals for each individual will be
reviewed, renewed and progress acknowledged monthly at the IPP staffing. Supporting measurements of
success, including random drug resting, weekly supervision meetings, in home collaborative visitations,
group attendance, group assignment completion, school attendance, will also be collected on a regular
monthly basis. We are very comfortable that the above indicators of success will result in lowered
recidivism/revocation rates as compared to the non-Juvenile Female Offender Program participants.
BUDGET/BUDGET NARRATIVE:
CONTRACTED CONSULTANT/PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
Weld County Probation and specifically Juvenile Probation has contracted with Hawk II Systems L.L.C.
continuously for the past several years to work with the Juvenile Female Offender Program (JFOP). In
order to expand the number of young women served, and add some additional components to the JFOP
such as parent and peer groups, the Probation Officer is requesting $23,022.00 annually to be allocated
towards Hawk II Systems' services and $700.00 is requested for baseline and confirmation drug testing.
Like other providers or agencies working directly with JFOP, Hawk II Systems will attend monthly
staffings where the Individual Probationary Plan(IPP) will be developed, and review and create new goals
for the upcoming month outlined. Expenses will cover Hawk II Systems' provision of the required
parent/daughter groups that will contain parenting and behavior management information. Additionally,
weekly, on-going cognitive girls groups will be provided by Hawk II Systems to address issues of personal
safety, teen pregnancy, interpersonal relationships, personal decision making and career choices. In order
for the girls and their families to receive support and program consistency, regular in-home and/or school
visits will be conducted jointly by Hawk II Systems and the Probation Officer. These visits allow issues
that arise to be addressed in a timely and supportive fashion.
