Program Category Sexual Abuse Treatment Program Bid Category
Project Title Generic Sex Abuse Treatment
Vendor Weld County Department of Social Services
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Weld County is requesting the continuance of the generic sexual abuse fund. This fund has been
effective in providing offense specific therapy, evaluations, victim therapy, educational counseling,
and related services for families on an outpatient basis in a number of locations. It allows
caseworkers to specifically obtain evaluations and tailor interventions to the needs of families and
provides a continuum of care and access to specialized treatment needed by offenders and victims of
sexual abuse. It affords the Department flexibility in assuming the court ordered responsibility to
assess families for safety and treatment, and to keep children from placement or more restrictive and
expensive levels of care.
II. TARGET/ELIGIBILITY POPULATIONS
In previous years, the primary focus of this fund has been on adolescent offenders and their families.
With the ability to alter our payment rates to Child Placement Agencies, we are now able to pay for
offense-specific therapy for adolescents in CPA settings without the use of this fund. We will still
have cases where an adolescent offender can be maintained in his home, or with a relative, if he is
able to participate in offense-specific therapy. These children can be as young as ten years old, or as
old as eighteen. They will have to meet the out-of-home placement criteria, and services will have
the purpose of preventing imminent placement, or of reunifying the family. Family participation and
a system approach are important in sex offense therapy, so other family members will be eligible for
services through this fund. Other eligible populations will include victims of sex abuse (age one
through eighteen) who require treatment in order to be maintained in their home, or in some cases,
their adoptive home. Families who need bilingual services or offense-specific therapy for teenagers
with developmental delays can also be served by this fund. Residents who live in South County or
who do not have access to services in Greeley would also qualify for this fund.
Program capacity and the total number of clients to be served will be flexible with this program, as
we will use this fund to contract with individual providers. Offenders require long-term treatment,
with one year to eighteen months being the practice standard. Assessments can usually be concluded
within a couple of sessions. For victim services, therapy can also be long-term; however, this fund
will be used to pay for children and families that need immediate and specialized treatment to address
behavioral and emotional issues stemming from sexual abuse that threaten to jeopardize placement.
After acute placement crises have been resolved, these clients will be referred to other funding or
therapeutic services for continued treatment. It is anticipated that we will serve seven to twelve
families a year.
III. TYPE OF SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED
Services provided through this fund will be individualized to meet the needs of families and the
Page 27 of 31
RFP-FYC-01007 Attached A
Department. The Department will only use providers with expertise in sexual abuse/offender
assessment, treating offender behavior, or sexual abuse trauma. Treatment modalities will vary
according to the needs of the case. Group therapy is important for offenders, as well as individual
therapy. Polygraph testing and family therapy are also applicable in most cases. The Department
will only contract with qualified providers who can identify the precursors and cognitive distortions
that accompany offense behavior. These providers also need to be skilled in the confrontive
techniques needed to assure safety and progress in the offender. Specific modalities can be assessed
as needed, from diagnostic assessments to victim groups or chaperone training, as indicated by the
case. Caseworkers will be the gatekeepers as to what modalities are used in their cases, and the
providers will need prior authorization for their treatment strategy. In every case, alternative-funding
sources will be utilized to pay for treatment before this fund(private insurance, Medicaid, victim's
compensation, Vale grants).
IV. MEASURABLE OUTCOMES
Caseworkers will need to be vigilant to assure that providers who access this fund work on the
Department's directives, namely to prevent out-of-home placement or a more restrictive level of care.
Providers who are deemed appropriate will be asked to sign a contract that specifies our billing
requirements (monthly billing, client verification) and our need for written reports and updates on
client progress. Approval for funding will also be reviewed by the DSS manager quarterly to further
verify the effectiveness of service, and the compliance of the provider with the Department's
expectations. Clinically, the caseworker and DSS manager will review the behavioral, attitudinal,
and family parameters that indicate progress or the lack thereof. Each provider will have their own
means of measuring outcomes, and these will be made available to the caseworker. Perpetrators who
re-offend will likely be evaluated for a more restrictive level of care, and be disqualified from further
outpatient services. The manager of this fund will track how many children are able to remain in his
or her own home(or least-restrictive setting), and the number of timely assessments provided for the
court or for treatment planning.
V. SERVICE OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this fund will be to increase availability and quality of services by using recognized
experts in offender and victim therapy, and they will have to demonstrate a pragmatic and cost-
effective approach to continue their funding. The essential goals of treatment for the perpetrator are:
1. Owning and accepting responsibility for sexually inappropriate behavior.
2. Reduction in deviant sexual arousal patterns and impulses, and development of appropriate
patterns.
3. Identification and elimination of the cognitive distortion used to rationalize,justify, and
excuse perpetration.
4. Identification of the sexual abuse/assault cycle and development of cycle management ability.
5. Development of an awareness of the impact of sexual abuse on the victim.
6. Development of techniques to manage anger, as well as power and control issues, more
effectively.
7. Resolution of the issues related to abandonment and the offender's own victimization issues.
8. Development of skills requisite to healthy and age appropriate social and sexual relations.
Page 28 of 31
RFP-FYC-01007 Attached A
For the family system, caretakers need to demonstrate the capacity to recognize and confront the
offender's abusive patterned behaviors, and follow a safety plan in regulating any contact with the
offender. An understanding of the following will increase parental competency:
1. How the offender controlled, manipulated, and arranged for time alone with the victim.
2. How the offender controlled and manipulated the family to avoid detection.
3. Understanding of offenders' specific cycle of abuse and relapse chain of events.
4. Complete apprehension of no-cure and containment principles related to recovery.
5. Review of a safety plan with practices of behavioral response on the part of the family if the
offender does not follow the safety plan.
6. Understand the scope of deviant behaviors.
7. Information and supervision for non-abused potential victims.
For cases where the Department is addressing victimization only, our focus for this fund will be on
eliminating the need for removal from the home. Behaviors that might lead to the need for removal
would be sexual acting out, suicidal ideation or attempts, or other unmanageable behavior where the
etiology can be traced or referred from the experience of sexual abuse. The plan would be to use this
fund until there is some stability, and then refer the family to another funding source or provider to
address other long-term issues.
VI. WORKLOAD STANDARDS
As Weld County is not the provider of these services, an exact description of workload standards is
not possible. Obviously, Weld County will only contract with reputable agencies and individuals that
adhere to an ethical workload standard.
VII. STAFF QUALIFICATIONS
Weld County will only contract with providers who have vast experience in the sex abuse field, and
all therapists will have advanced degrees and significant training in either treating offenders or
victims.

VIII. COMPUTATION OF DIRECT SERVICE RATE

instructed that they can only bill for direct client contact. Before approving any service, the
provider's hourly rate and the estimated total cost for the service will be reviewed.
