There have been four (4) extensions to this agreement (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020). This agreement has provided a valuable service to the County and should be considered for renewal. What options exist for the Board? (Include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options) The Board may approve or deny this renewal request. A denial of this renewal request would eliminate the NO COST service NRBH has been providing to complete mental health evaluations and subsequent treatment determinations for community members being released from the Weld County Jail after normal county business hours. Eliminating this service would place the responsibility of completing these evaluations back on Detentions Deputies, pulling them away from their duty of maintaining safety and security in the jail. It should be noted that since the inception of the original agreement (July 2016), the Weld County Sheriff's Office has called on NRBH to complete 1301 evaluations of this nature. This was 1437 evaluations that Detentions Deputies would have had to otherwise complete. Instead, NRBH responded to the jail with professional mental health staff to evaluate and provide for the mental health needs of these community members. NRBH has completed 136 evaluations of this nature in the past year for July 2020 — June 2021. An approval of this renewal request would continue this no cost service which has proven to be an asset to the Weld County Sheriff's Office and the citizens of Weld County. **Please note this has been reviewed by Weld County Attorney office.
