The Division of Criminal Justice (DCJ), Office of Community Corrections has appropriated $22,500 to Weld County to implement this requirement, with no County match, which will be added on to the County existing contract with DCJ. In compliance with the County's procurement code, we solicited proposals from multiple consultants who have the relevant experience and expertise to develop this screening process and tool.

(Criminal Justice Planners, Kally Enright, Ph.D. and Todd Spanier, Esq. with Arapahoe County). The Community Corrections Board and I reviewed the proposals,tabulated scoring and recommend award go to Dr's. Terranova and Ward with UNC. What options exist for the Board? (Include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options) Option 1. Authorize as a Present Bid item at a future hearing and then promptly schedule as an Approve Bid item at a next hearing. Option 2.

Everything is in place to proceed with the DCJ, and the Community Corrections Board to ensure good implementation. There are no cost or additional contractual obligations required upon Weld County by the State for this project.

Contract Professional shall coordinate with the Weld County Department of Justice Services to perform the services described on attached Exhibits A and B. Contract Professional shall faithfully perform the work in accordance with the standards of professional care, skill, training, diligence and judgment provided by highly competent Contract Professionals performing services of a similar nature to those described in this Agreement. Contract Professional shall further be responsible for the timely completion and acknowledges that a failure to comply with the standards and requirements of Exhibits A and B within the time limits prescribed by Weld County may result in Weld County's decision to withhold payment or to terminate this Agreement. 3. Term. The term of this Agreement begins upon the date of the execution of this Agreement by Weld County, and shall continue through and until Contract Professional's completion of the responsibilities described in Exhibits A. Both parties to this Agreement understand and agree that the laws of the State of Colorado prohibit Weld County from entering into Agreements, which bind Weld County for periods longer than one (1)year. Therefore, within the thirty (30) days preceding the anniversary date of this Agreement, Weld County shall notify Contract Professional if it wishes to renew this Agreement. 4. Termination. Weld County has the right to terminate this Agreement, with or without cause on thirty (30) days written notice. Furthermore, this Agreement may be terminated at any time without notice upon a material breach of the terms of the Agreement. However, nothing herein shall be construed as giving Contract Professional the right to provide services under this Agreement beyond the time when such services become unsatisfactory to Weld County. If this Agreement is terminated by Weld County, Contract Professional shall be compensated for, and such compensation shall be limited to, (1) the sum of the amounts contained in invoices which it has submitted and which have been approved by Weld County; (2) the reasonable value to Weld County of the services which Contract Professional provided prior to the date of the termination notice, but which had not yet been approved for payment; and (3) the cost of any work which Weld County approves in writing, which it determines is needed to accomplish an orderly termination of the work.

Extension or Modification. Any amendments or modifications to this Agreement shall be in writing signed by both parties. No additional services or work performed by Contract Professional shall be the basis for additional compensation unless and until Contract Professional has obtained written authorization and acknowledgement by Weld County for such additional services. Accordingly, no claim that Weld County has been unjustly enriched by any additional services, whether there is in fact any such unjust enrichment, shall be the basis of any increase in the compensation payable hereunder. If written authorization and acknowledgment by Weld County for such additional services is not timely executed and issued in strict accordance with this Agreement, Contract Professional's rights with respect to such additional services shall be deemed waived and such failure shall result in non-payment for such additional services or work performed. In the event Weld County shall require changes in the scope, character, or complexity of the work to be performed, and said changes cause an increase or decrease in the time required or the costs to the Contract Professional for performance, an equitable adjustment in fees and completion time shall be negotiated between the parties and this Agreement shall be modified accordingly by a Supplemental Agreement. Any claims by the Contract Professional for adjustment hereunder must be made in writing prior to performance of any work covered in the anticipated Supplemental Agreement. Any change in work made without such prior Supplemental Agreement shall be deemed covered in the compensation and time provisions of this Agreement 6. Compensation/Contract Amount. Upon Contract Professional's successful completion of the services, and Weld County's acceptance of the same, Weld County agrees to pay an amount no greater than $22,500, which is the bid set forth in Exhibit A.

Any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, in no event shall Weld County be liable for payment for services rendered and expenses incurred by Contract Professional under the terms of this Agreement for any amount in excess of the sum of the bid amount set forth in Exhibit A. Contract Professional acknowledges that any work it performs beyond that specifically authorized by Weld County is performed at Contract Professional's risk and without authorization under this Agreement. Weld County shall not be liable for the payment of taxes, late charges or penalties of any nature other than the compensation stated herein. If, at any time during the term or after termination or expiration of this Agreement, Weld County reasonably determines that any payment made by Weld County to Contract Professional was improper because the service for which payment was made did not perform as set forth in this Agreement, then upon written notice of such determination and request for reimbursement from Weld County, Contract Professional shall forthwith return such payment(s) to Weld County. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, unexpended funds advanced by Weld County, if any, shall forthwith be returned to Weld County. Weld County will not withhold any taxes from monies paid to the Contract Professional hereunder and Contract Professional agrees to be solely responsible for the accurate reporting and payment of any taxes related to payments made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Mileage may be reimbursed if the provisions of Exhibit A permit such payment at the rate set forth in Exhibit A. Contract Professional shall not be paid any other expenses unless set forth in this Agreement. Payment to Contract Professional will be made only upon presentation of a proper claim by Contract Professional, itemizing services performed and, (if permitted under this Agreement), mileage expense incurred.

PROPOSAL REQUEST #B1900123 Page 8 Proposal: Structured Decision Making Tool for Weld County Community Corrections Board Authors: Kyle C. Ward, PhD Victoria Terranova, PhD Associate Professor Assistant Professor Kyle.ward@unco.edu Victoria.Terranova@unco.edu University of Northern Colorado Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice UNIVERSITY IP (111114 NORTHERN COLORADO PROPOSAL/BID NUMBER:#61900123 DESCRIPTION:STRUCTURED DECISION-MAKING PROCESS AND TOOL FOR WELD COUNTY COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS BOARD WELD COUNTY JUSTICE SERVICES DEPARTMENT Project Summary and Background The purpose of this proposal is to request funding to help Weld County's Community Corrections Board develop a Structured Decision Making (SDM)tool. In May of 2018, Governor Hickenlooper signed HB 18-1251 requiring that community corrections boards develop a structured decision making (SDM)tool.The SDM tool is a research-based method that will aid decisions about community correctional placement for individuals released from Colorado's Department of Corrections institutional facilities or diversion sentences from the criminal court system. As part of this project, Drs. Ward and Terranova will work closely with Weld County's 9-member Community Corrections Board to facilitate the creation and evaluation of a SDM tool. Board members are appointed by Weld County's Board of Commissioners and have representation from the district attorney's office, the bench, probation,the public defender's office, sheriff's office, law enforcement, and three community members. The board screens clients for referral to community programs. SDM guidelines have been utilized in multiple fields and play a role in the community corrections decision process. They ensure agency efforts and resources are targeted toward a common purpose with shared goals. These guidelines help to organize information in a consistent format, provide accountability to board decisions, and provide data for evaluating performance and outcomes. According to Campbell (2008)1, the most commonly used format of structured decision- making model in policy-driven, evidence-based systems is a matrix, or decision tree. These tools provide a decision-making framework that allows for discretion by clearly expressing desired goals and outcomes; prioritizing interests; clarifying preferred responses to types of needs, risks, and violations; and identifying values to be considered in decisions. The goal of this project is to incorporate these components in the process of developing the SDM tool by facilitating open discussions with the board. The SDM guidelines will combine information garnered from Weld County's Community Corrections Board and the Risk Needs Responsivity Model of rehabilitation, providing a reliable, evidence-based model to guide community placement decisions in Weld County. Drs. Ward and Terranova are applying for this RFP as objective researchers from the Department of Criminology& Criminal Justice at the University of Northern Colorado in Weld County. Both have established active partnerships with criminal justice agencies and non-profit organizations at the county-and state-level in Colorado. Examples of our work described below are available upon request. 1 Campbell, N. M (2009).Comprehensive framework for patrolling authorities in the era of evidence-based practices. Washington, DC:National Institute of Corrections. Proposal The efforts of this project will seek to answer several research questions about structured decision making in Weld County. First, what are the most important factors community corrections board members consider when making placement decisions?Second, how can these factors inform a structured decision making tool?Third, is the structured decision making tool effective in predicting outcomes of importance for community corrections board members? Scope of Work: In the completion of this project, the tasks below will be accomplished as detailed below in collaboration with Weld County. 1. Develop and modify a SDM tool and process based on acceptance criteria and areas identified as important to placement decisions by the board. ■ In order to complete this task, we will observe multiple meetings and conduct focus groups in collaboration with the Weld County Community Corrections Board. We will identify the factors board members consider to be important for making decisions regarding community corrections placement. These factors will be combined with items that have been identified to be important in other SDM tools used nationwide and within the state of Colorado. This collaborative approach to build the tool will be used to solicit buy-in from all current board members. • We will work with the board to develop the SDM tool and aspects relating to the format,the identification of decision-making criteria, and definitions associated with the tool. 2. Gather and provide preliminary education on the basic concepts and benefits of a SDM tool and process. • We will gather information from SDM tools across Colorado to help inform this process. ■ Preliminary education will be provided through presentations given at scheduled board meetings. These presentations will incorporate the benefits of SDM tools,the research supporting them, as well as the underlying Risk Needs Responsivity Modell and evidence-based practice criteria3 in the field of corrections. 3. Provide training to staff and board members about the development and use of the SDM tool. 2 Bonta,J.,&Andrews, D.A. (2007).

L., Eck,J., Reuter, P.,&Bushway,S.(1997).Preventing crime: What works, what doesn't, what's promising:A report to the United States Congress.Washington, DC: US Department of Justice,Office of Justice Programs. • We will collaborate with board members to determine the best training practices related to the most effective format on SDM tool training. We will identify unmet training needs about the decision making process in Weld County and identify ways to address these needs in future structured trainings. 4. Pilot test the SDM tool to determine the effectiveness of the SDM tool. • The pilot will evaluate the differences and similarities in how recommendations and decision-making outcomes between the SDM tool and previous decision-making processes. • From the pilot, we will work with the board to make modifications and revisions as deemed necessary to the tool, definitions, and training. • These modifications may include the weighting of certain criteria deemed more important in the SDM tool and process. It may also include revisions to the SDM tool and/or process that might make it easier for staff and the board to complete. 5. Help staff and the board develop interim and long-term processes, as well as outcome measures to help assure there is a clear understanding of how the SDM tool is being used and the results associated with the use of the SDM tool. 6. Delivery of the SDM tool and process, including aiding any policy or procedure changes necessary to incorporate the SDM tool into decision-making steps. 7. Develop a plan for the staff and board for the continued and sustainable use of the SDM tool and decision-making process as staff and board members may change. • A training and sustainability plan will be a deliverable of this project. This guide will be provided to the board at the conclusion of this project. Deliverables: 1. Structured Decision Making Tool to be used by Weld County's Community Corrections Board 2. A report indicating the effectiveness of this tool 3. At least 3 presentations to the board on the progress of the project (more may be added at the discretion of the board or researchers) 4.

Examples of Work in Other Jurisdictions Dr.'s Ward and Terranova are currently completing a multi-jurisdictional project to validate and revise the Colorado Pretrial Assessment Tool (CPAT). The pretrial service agencies involved in the study include Boulder, Denver, Garfield, Larimer, Mesa, Pueblo, and Weld counties. Additional collaborators for this study include the Pretrial Executives Network (PEN), Division of Criminal Justice, Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the Colorado Courts. Pretrial risk assessment tools provide structured decision making for the judicial authorities tasked with making pretrial release decisions. The methodology to be employed in this project mirrors several aspects of the CPAT project including focus groups used for gather information to construct the SDM tool, and the pilot test that will be used evaluate the tool's validity and reliability. In addition, Dr. Ward is currently working with Weld County's Criminal Justice Advisor on a mapping project of Weld County's Criminal Justice System. The systems mapping project uses similar methodology that will be utilized in this project through focus groups and other adaptive methods to gain insight into different decision points in Weld County's Criminal Justice System. Dr. Ward has also worked on evaluation projects for Focus Reentry, a jail-to-community reentry program serving Boulder County and UNC's Criminology and Criminal Justice Department's Reading for a Change Program, currently run in Weld and Boulder County Jails and Weld County's Work Release Center. Dr. Ward is the program director and principle investigator for the program and accompanying research project. Dr. Terranova's additional relevant research experience about structured decision- making spans county-, state- and national-level program evaluation. She has worked as a research assistant on the Evaluation of Revocation Trends with Bexar County Adult Probation. She has also worked as a research assistant with the Texas Legislative Budget Board on the statewide evaluation of juvenile justice programs. Furthermore, she was a research assistant for the national evaluation of the Ontario Domestic Assault Risk Assessment (ODARA)funded by Arnold Ventures.
