This page intentionally left blank. EXHIBIT B CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL yr Off, SS as jhera 01 tt‘ • N�MP Colorado Therapy Horses by HUMAN INTERPERSONAL SERVICES , Inc. Proposal for Equine -Assisted Therapy To Weld County Department of Human Services In the spirit of our mission to provide a unique service for at -risk youth, adults, veterans, and families that integrate "Natural Humanship" principals while innovatively allowing the human spirit to be renewed by the horse. Program Human Interpersonal Services Story, Purpose, and Plan Colorado Therapy Horses by Human Interpersonal Services is a non -riding horse therapy program, located in Greeley Colorado, Human Interpersonal Services is a nonprofit 501c3 corporation formed in 2012 by Richard McMahan, MA, a CAC III Substance Abuse Counselor, Vocational Evaluator/Counselor and Equine Assisted Psychotherapist. Human Interpersonal Services was created to serve in the Equine Assisted Psychotherapy service that is an emerging form of therapeutic intervention, in which horses are used as tools for clients to gain self - understanding and emotional growth. Equine assisted psychotherapy is a type of animal -assisted therapy, a field of mental health that recognizes the bond between animals and humans, and the potential for emotional healing that can occur when a relationship is formed between the two species. During the process of working with the horse, the therapist and client engage in talk therapy, processing feelings, behaviors, and patterns. The goal is to build skills such as personal responsibility, assertiveness, non-verbal communication, self-confidence, and self-control. In 2014-15, Human Interpersonal Services goal was to enhance the program by providing some comfort for participants. This involved providing a tent for shelter from the elements and a portable toilet donated for Natural Humanship training. In 2014, 925 people visited and benefited from Human Interpersonal Services programs; dramatically increasing in 2015 with 3,250 people visiting the ranch. The upward trend continued with more than 6,889 participants in 2016. Children (<9) and at -risk youth (9-17) represented 3,307 of these participants. The sheer volume demonstrates a great need for these services and the acceptability and willingness of the young client to participate in this program. As Human Interpersonal Services continues to seek alternative and creative funding to support programs and services to meet the growing needs of the community, partnerships continue to develop for 2016-17. The first goal for 2016 was to purchase a permanent home for a new facility that will allow for growth to support new housing for the horses and a new indoor arena for year around therapy programs. December 23, 2016 marked the purchase of 50 acres. This new facility is located just North of Greeley at 14272 WCR 72. The plan for 2017-18 was to build loafing sheds and fences for the horses, and create a temporary office. The 2019 phase will include building the indoor arena and new offices for therapy services. Plans include increasing mental health service programs through the development of a Discovery Ranch that will allow for larger groups, extended stay housing for military families, and treatment for veterans. Additionally, because Richard McMahan, MA is a past Certified Rehabilitation Counselor and Vocational Evaluator, he can coordinate with rehabilitation professionals at the Weld County level and school districts to design a meaningful opportunity. Furthermore, the 50 -acre ranch will have a series of "cottage industries" that will offer job training, job experience and meaningful employment opportunities for those in Weld County Treatment Courts, Veterans in -need and, the special education students that are in the gap and don't fit traditional places like Envision. Examples we are considering; kitchen help in our dining hall, hydroponics crop growing, welding shop, woodworking shop, mechanics shop, logging & milling business, and manufacturing, of items that can be sold over the internet to promote Colorado Therapy Horses and more as the vision takes us. Goals for 2019-2020 included strategically increasing partnerships to address program services and, funding. One major partnership is with Covenant Testing Technologies, LLC. In which we are in the final stages of organizing a "Military Oilwell Watcher Team," which will bring a new way for companies to donate to a non-profit. Our plan is to hire mostly Veterans to provide a "guard duty" service for the oil industry while reducing the production cost and allowing the production company to donate the difference to the Colorado Therapy Horses. The main feature is that the oil companies' giving is tied directly into production, which will be a first of the kind in both the oil industry and among non -profits. Human Interpersonal Services has currently agreed on a deal with PDC Energy and Bill Barrett Company to begin "watching" several of their new production wells as of January 1, 2017, and are in the process of acquiring many other oil and gas companies into the program. These goals are important in supporting the therapeutic goals for Human Interpersonal Services as we endeavor to meet the growing mental health needs of the Weld County Community. Bringing Equine Assisted Psychotherapy to Weld County will provide a unique niche as it will allow the client to open up easier and use all sensory input to activate a different mindset. Equine therapy addresses multiple concerns as participants engage with the horse, and is especially advantageous for clients that struggle with "talk" therapy or the sterile office environment. Generally, Equine therapy takes less time than traditional "talk" therapy as the client is more at ease and able to work through issues at a quicker pace. Scope of Services Target population as it relates to Child Welfare: The target population for CMHTA includes at - risk children, adolescents, youth, parents, and families. Physical location: 14272 WCR 72, Greeley CO. 80631 Hours of Service: o Volunteer and walk-in community service (feeding times)- 8:00 am to 10:00 am & 4 pm to 5:00 pm. o Individual, couple, family by appointment- 10:00 am — 3:30 pm & 5:30 pm. (negotiable) *Individual and family assessment time will be scheduled by the assigned therapist. Staff /Volunteer resources: Richard McMahan, MA, NHTIII, CAC III, Equine Assisted Psychotherapist (also trained in Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) and Vocational Evaluator (CVE). Patricia Ferguson, LPC, Therapist Louise Quijano, Ph.D, LCSW, Bilingual Therapist Karizmine Sill, BSW, BSHDFS, Operations Specialist Joni Martin, LPC, volunteer therapist Judy Riba-McMahan, BA, Ranch Manager Jenny Leachman, Equine Specialist Program Goals: Ultimately, the goal of Colorado Therapy Horse program is to increase the human's self- satisfaction, self-control, and self-confidence through enhancing personal power. This empowerment decreases the humans need to seek external means for achieving personal power. When the symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and other ism's are present, they are indicators of less and less personal power, which causes fear in the human to need to "Control" something. There are only two things that humans can ultimately control and that is what we put in our minds, such as our spiritual values and what we "do" and "put in our" bodies. Human Interpersonal services therapy program focuses on personal fears that lead to a need for control, resulting in out of control behaviors. As clients address fears and learn to "normalize" and manage these feelings, they learn to change thinking, which changes behaviors. Anticipated Outcomes: This therapeutic approach finds roots in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) as a means of connecting feelings, thoughts, and behaviors to implement change. Furthermore, clients learn to recognize and accept two seemingly opposite ideas as truth, while learning to determine the heathier choice (Dialectical Behavior Therapy-DBT). For example, clients learn to recognize that while they can feel fear and it may seem overwhelming, it is also true that this feeling is "normal" and not something they need to base their behaviors on. This approach on substantiated therapy and techniques allows Human Interpersonal Services to expect a high probability of success in this equine therapy program. Measurable Outcomes: 1. Enhanced personal power as evidenced by positive behaviors, decisions, and relationships with others. 2. Increased use of healthy coping strategies evidenced by decrease behavior escalations. 3. Increased self-awareness as evidenced by the ability to recognize needs and find healthy solutions. 4. The increase in ability to manage or eliminate mental health concerns such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and somatic symptoms as evidenced by a decrease in reported symptoms. 5. Possible decrease in need for psychotropic medications as mental health concerns decrease or recede as evidenced by decrease or elimination of symptoms. Behavioral and Mental Health issues addressed: • Post -Traumatic Stress Disorder • Grief • Attention Deficit (ADHD) • Substance Abuse & Chemical Dependency • Anger Management • Relationship issues • Behavioral problems • Depression & Anxiety • Eating disorders • Abuse & Neglect • Lesbian, Gay, Transgender • Attachment issues • Parenting Human Interpersonal Services Approach: This approach follows a ten session weekly program for groups and applies more flexibility to meet the therapeutic needs of individuals and families. The initial session occurs in the office to complete assessment and determine client needs and establish goals. The following sessions start with a teaching/discussion, move to time with the herd, and end with a reflection time to explore session experience. This model is then adapted to specific client populations driven by their unique clinical needs and challenges and does not need to do or complete all of the sessions to be effective for each participant. It is customized for the individual needs of the client. The Colorado Therapy Horses is a `herd' of horses and humans that 'Heal the Hearts' of hurting humans like Wounded Warriors, Veterans, and their families, PTSD. Victims of various kinds of trauma, broken child and family relationships and others, such as those with alcohol and drug additions. Program Descriptions: o Individual- This service is provided to meet needs for participants needing more individual attention or to focus more on in-depth issues a client may struggle to discuss in groups. This program follows the same basic outline for sessions but is tailored to the individual's specific goals. o Families- Focus is on the systems approach to improving relationships and communication in the family. This is tailored to meet the specific needs of the family. o Diversion Programs- This program works with local courts and cities (currently Milliken, Greeley) to provide services for Diversion programs allowing participants to engage in the equine horse experience as a means of creating change. This program follows the group model and meets weekly or bi-weekly based on needs. o Vocational Rehabilitation Program- This program will utilize the daily need to care for the horses and maintain the facility. It can be a type of On the Job Training (OJT) and used to give clients experience and allow staff to monitor emotional, social, work ethics, and experience. We have done this already with adult special education students from Millikan/Johnstown School District and have discussed the opportunity with Greeley School District. o Volunteers- Volunteerism is the means Human Interpersonal Services meets the daily needs of the animals and facilities. Participants arrive during volunteer times and engage in feeding and maintenance chores as a means of experiencing giving back to others (horses), or to fulfill court obligations. Often time therapists are on hand to provide support for those in -need. o Consultations- Richard McMahan, Natural Humanship III (NHTIII), CAC III expert provides psycho -educational consult on Natural Humanship Training Theory and Training, as needed, for services offered. Judy Riba-McMahan, Equine Expert III, provides expert equine information specific to the herd of therapy horses, as well as generalized to the species. o Permanency Service Support Program- Program designed to support other programs offering youth and family coaches the opportunity to bring clients out to experience the benefits of the horse herd. o Parenting Education and Support Program- This program is designed to help parents build healthy parenting skills and gain confidence and empowerment as a parent through relationships with the horse. Parents also learn how to receive and give support for other participants. o Counselor Support Program- This program helps counselors and caseworkers manage self -care and decrease vicarious trauma leading to burnout. Assessments: Participants may receive pre and post -assessments to measure the effectiveness of services. These assessments may include any of the following: (list is not inclusive) o Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) o Daily Living Assessment (DLA-20) o Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD -7) o BECK *Future assessment will include the use of a Cortisol swab to determine the level of anxiety or depression. This will be a part of a future research program. Documentation: The upcoming plan is to use an Instant Collaboration Documentation with I -Pads, and a portal and kiosk for participant pre -registration process. *We will look into possible electronic records system for future. Rate/Unit Schedule: Fees for Service: o Individual $115 per 1.0 hour o Family $150 for 1.5 hours o Intake fee $100 per hour o Case Management (meeting/staffing, phone calls, or in person) fee $100 per hour, ($25 per first 15 minutes, additional $25 for 16-30 minutes, additional $25 for 31-45 minutes, additional $25 for 46-60 minutes, and additional $25 for each 15 minutes over 60 minutes). o Court Testimony $145 per hour with minimum $500 for half day and $1000 for full day. o Permanency Service Support- $50 per day, per individual or family Individual Drug and Alcohol Therapy by Richard McMahan is done at regular Individual Rate.
