27. Project Summary: (See Instructions)
NOTE: For a continuation application, provide a summary of progress toward accomplishment of project goals and objectives.
This project, located in the Weld County Jail which was completed in February of
1978, was funded to provide a model classification/intake system. Its objectives
in the first year were to screen 1200 inmates for placement in pods (living areas)
within the jail , based on an objective system of past incarceration, criminal
history, counselor interviews, psychological testing, arrestee input, and jailer
observations. The project also instituted an extensive referral system to provide
both in-jail and post-release services to the jail population. As the jail pre-
viously maintained a scarcity of data concerning its offender population, the
project also instituted a data collection system which will be tied into the
Weld - Boulder Counties ' computer system. Data will be analysised by use of
Standard Package for the Social Sciences computer software program. The project
will also store pertinent data in the computer and have ready access to it for
analysis. The project serves an inmate population of increasing size (average
daily population as of July 1979: 88) , wants, and needs. The project therefore
also provides direct services of both short and long-term. Many community agencies
likewise provide direct services to the inmate population. The project has opened
lines of communication with service delivery agencies in surrounding counties, in
order to fill the gaps in services lacking in Weld County. During the second year
of existence, the project will initiate a small-scale pilot study to determine the
effectiveness of various types of services offered to inmates. Volunteers will be
measured both psychologically and physiologically to determine the occurrance of
change on several criteria attributable to services offered in the jail . The project
also offers some counseling services to line staff when time is available.

30. Budget Narrative: Explain and justify the project budget and relate the item budgeted to Project activities (use continuation
sheets).
SECTION 30: BUDGET NARRATIVE
This Section will be outlined in the same format as used in Section
29: DETAILED PROJECT BUDGET.
A) Personnel
1) Project Director. This is an added cost to the project for
this continuation year. The Project Director; Tom Mannweiler,
is the Programs Supervisor within the Jail Division. He
supervises not only the Project, but also the In-House
Counseling Section and the Work Release Section. He de-
votes approximately 15% of his time on the project, and
therefore that proportion of his salary is reflected in
this line. The formula for his salary cost is:
$1268/month x 12 = $15,216.00 x .15 = $2,282.00. His salary
is equal to that of a lieutenant within the Sheriff Depart-
ment.
2) Section Supervisor. Dick Wing, the Classification/Intake
Supervisor, was hired in March of 1979. His salary is
equal to that of a lieutenant within the Sheriff Department.
Based on County Personnel Policy & Procedures, his salary
line formula is: $1016.00/month x 5 + $1041.00 x 7 =
$14,310.00. Wing supervises the three other staff members
in the section.
3) Counselor II . Cody Wathen, the Classification/Intake
Counselor II, was hired in February of 1979. His salary
is equal to that of a Deputy II within the department.
The formula for his salary line is: $1016.00 x 5 +
$1041.00 x 7 = $12,367.00.
4) Counselor II . Linda Plasters is currently the Classification/
Intake Counselor I, but due to Departmental wide upgrading
of all Deputy I ' s (to which her pay is equal ) , she will be
upgraded in January 1980, to the equivelent of a Deputy II.
The formula for her salary line is: $920.00 x 3 + $991.00
x 6 + $1016.00 x 3 = $11,678.00.
5) Secretary IV. Maria Ketterling is currently the secretary
for the section. Her salary is likewise tied into the
Weld County Personnel pay scale. Thus the formula for
her position is: $855.00 x 3 + $876.00 x 9 = $10,449.00
FICA, Retirement, Fringe Benefits, etc.
1) FICA. This is based on .0613 of the monthly salary x 12 months.
2) Retirement. We use the Weld County Retirement plan, which is
based on the formula of: Monthly salary minus $400.00 x .06
+ $16.00 x 12 months.
3) Health & Life Insurance. Employees have two plans from which
to choose. However, the project cost remains the same for
either plan. It costs $552.00 per year for coverage for
each staff member.
4) Insurance & Bonds (National Sheriff' s Association) . In order
to provide insurance due to the nature of working in a jail
setting, and to provide bonds for its employees, the Weld
County Sheriff Department purchases Insurance & bonding
at the rate of $195.50 per year for each employee.
5) NOTE: All cost under this line for the Project Director
are also figured at the rate of 15%, with the remainder
of the cost being paid out of County funds.
B) Supplies and Other Operating Expenses
1) Office Supplies. Based on $402.20, broken down as follows:
$75 each for the Project Director and Section Supervisor =
$150.00
$65 each for the two Counselors = 130.00
$108.95 for the Secretary = 108.95
OFFICE SUPPLIES TOTAL $388.95
2) Printing Costs. Based on the following breakdown,
utilizing Weld County Printing costs:
a. Inmate Data Sheet, 1 side, 1000 copies $ 6.82
(replaces forms used)
b. Inmate Assessment, 2 sides, 6 pages,
1400 copies 50.56
c. Officer Observation Sheet, 1 side, 2000 copy 13.63
d. Inmate Handbooks, 1000 copies 120.40
e. Survey forms and follow-up questionaires 6.82
$196.44 $196.44
•
3) Audio Cassette Tapes. Based on cost of
$3.00 each x 5 = $ 15.00,
4) Books & Journals. This will provide neccessary
professional books and one or two journal subscriptions
in the fields of counseling, classification, and
corrections. $170.84
5. Postage. This will provide necessary stamps to mail
out a survey and questionaires to various agencies
and former receiptents of our services, and to cover
postage cost for day-to-day correspondence. $300.00
6. Data Processing. This will allow us computer time
on the Weld County Data Processing Center' s main
unit, via an in-house terminal . The cost is an
estimate based on the use of the SPSS program and
other recovery of data and analysis needs. $2000.00
C) Travel
We have been able to utilized some of the services offered
through the National Institute of Corrections for travel
this year, thus keeping our costs in this area low. We
do, however, forsee the need for some travel , such as to
workshops and confrences, or visits to other facilities
for observation or training. We will keep our grantfunded
travel within state, so that Sheriff Department cars can
be used, thus saving grant monies. Our travel line is based
on $13.50 per day per staff member for food, plus $20.00
per day per staff member for lodging, times two days per
staff member, for a total cost of: $335.00
We have alloted approximately $29.00 per staff member
for workshop or training registration or related costs,
for a total of: 140.00
TOTAL COSTS FOR TRAVEL: $475.00
D) Equipment. No equipment will be purchased this year. •
E) Construction Contracts. No construction costs will
come out of the grant this year.
F) Professional Services. This is an area where we can
maximize resources. During the first year of the grant,
we initiated a service contract with Weld Community
Mental Health Center (WCMH) to provide a variety of
services (e.g. client case consultation, training, test
review) . We had the choice of using private practioners
or the WCMH, and chose WCMH because of their previous
involvement with our facility, and the diversity of their
services available to us. (a copy of the contract with
WCMH is included in Appendix ) . We were paying WCMH
$16.87 per hour x 10 hours per month for their services,
but believe that the same rate for three months ($167.80
x 3 = $503.40; October - December 1979) , followed by a
decrease to five hours per month ($16.87 x 5 x 9 = $759.15),
will adequately fit our needs. We see as our primary need
with WCMH being client case consultation and test review.
Our total payments for 1979-80 will therefore be $1,265.25
Our second need for professional consulting services centers
around our pilot research and involves our need for training
and consultation using biofeedback instrumentation to
to measure the physiological responses pre-and post-
treatment in the control and experimental groups of
inmates. Drs. Robert Shellenberger, PhD, and Green, PhD,
are both nationally known experts in the fields of bio-
feedback and counseling. Shellenberger is in private
practice, as well as being an instructor at AIMS Community
College, located in Greeley. Although a contract has not
not been signed, we are anticipating full agreement from
him and his wife Dr. Green. The consultation will in-
clude the use of theirs or AIMS' equipment at no additional
cost. We foresee utilizing their services for sixteen hours
per month from October until December 1979, then decreasing
to eight hours per month during the experimental time period
of January through June, 1980, and terminating at that point
in time. The first period of time (October - December 1979)
will be used to familiarize our staff with the theories,
principles, and use of biofeedback equipment, and to assist
in neccessary review of liturature concerning the field of
study. The second period of the consultation will be during
the actual experiment, and will be used approximately two
•
hours per week to run the measures, provide expert advise,
and problem solve. The formula is therefore based on:
$16.87 x 16 hours x 3 months = $809.76 + $16.87 x 8 hours x
6 months = 809.76 = $1,619.52. $1,619.52

PROJECT SYNOPSIS NARRATIVE
NEEDS AND PROBLEMS: In March of 1978, the Weld County Sheriff Department
moved into its new 67,740 sq. foot, $4.3 million jail which currently
has a capacity of 127 adults and 16 juveniles. Even though the building
is new, it is rapidly becoming overcrowded aready, with an average daily
population of 88, and a continual rise predicted. Like other jails, it
is plagued by an inmate social structure of fights, extortion attempts,
and escapes. There is a need for a firm system which will allow for
seperation of violent from non-violent offenders, and for effective
intervention via a positive social environment within the jail , and good
social services provided both within the jail and when the inmate leaves.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Correctional Counselors will interview inmates
and review appropriate background data, psychological tests, and
jail observations, in order to make a proper placement within the jail .
The counselors will screen for inmate needs-including those of the in=
mate' s family- and either provide services directly, or make a referral
to a community agency working within the jail or in the county. Data
will be develop for research purposes, and the project will develop
a system usable with Weld County and jails of like size and characteristics.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES: (1) Classify on an ongoing basis an average daily
population of approximately 90-100 inmates; (2) Complete 1200 initial
intake interviews; (3) Provide 200 referrals to community agencies
providing post-release services; (4) To utilize various instruments
to measure the effects of services provided by In-House staff and
community agencies to inmates; (5) To provide pre-release planning
to 130 inmates; (6) To provide community referrals to the families
of 25 inmates; (7) To maintain a comprehensive data base on all
persons booked into and incarcerated at the Weld County Jail ; (8)
to develop and implement a community volunteer program; (9) To pro-
vide counseling and preparation to those inmates who will be trans-
ferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections from the jail , and
who request such help; (10) To establish and/or maintain contact and
coordination with state and other county correctional agencies having
similar interests in the field of classification and inmate services;
(11) To develop inmate involvement in the design and delivery of
services offered or coordinated by the Programs Unit; and (12) To
develop security line staff involvement in the evaluation of the
services offered or coordinated by the Programs Unit.
PAST PROGRESS: Although the project got off to a six month late
start due the difficulty of finding qualified applicants, it has
been making excellent progress. 1200 initial intake interviews
may not be completed the first year, but is quite reachable, now
that the full staff is on board. Referrals are a strong point
of the project, and it has met its objectives in that area. New
methods are to be instituted in July, 1979, to better reach those
inmates in need of pre-release planning. the County Health De-
partment is working in coordination with the Project and other
jail staff to bring this program to the inmates. Family referrals
are also being met. Much data has been collected and only awaits
processing by the Weld County Data Processing Center. Behavioral
problem inmates are dealt with either by initial classification,
or by due process disciplinary hearings. Security staff involvement
in the classification system is a regular feature of this project.
EVALUATION: The Project will utilize both performance and impact
measures to evlauate success and failure. a Standard Package for
the Social Sciences computer software program will be used to
analysis the data collected.
EQUAL EMPLOYMENT COMPLIANCE REVIEW: DCJ Form 15a is signed and
a part of the grant application. The Weld County Personnel De-
partment has revised EEOP and AAP to be in compliance with DCJ
policy. The Jail has approximately a ratio of 50% male to 50%
female, plus has equal pay positions available and filled by the
handicapped.

41. PROBLEM STATEMENT
The Greeley Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area includes one
county, Weld, and 28 incorporated municipalities: Ault, Dacono,
Eaton, Erie, Evans, Firestone, Fort Lupton, Frederick, Garden City,
Gilcrest, Greeley, Grover, Hudson, Johnstown, Keenesburg, Keota,
Kersey, LaSalle, Lochbuie, Mead, Milliken, New Raymer, Nunn, Pierce,
Platteville, Rosedale, Severance, and Windsor. The estimated 1978
population of the SMSA is 140,000 persons, which represents a 56.7
percent increase since 1970, a 16.6 percent increase since 1977,
and a 93.5 percentage increase since 1960. If past trends continue,
it has been estimated by the Weld County Planning Office that the
Greeley/Weld County SMSA will have a year 2000 population of 225,000
persons. Population density (based on 140,000 persons and 4,004
square miles) is 34.96 persons per square mile. The projected pop-
ulation for 1980 is 296,500.
' The following is a percentage breakdown of the incorporated
municipalities located in Weld County, projected for 1980.

The Classification system which has been developed during the
first year of the grant period has reached a majority of it's initial
goals and objectives. A smooth running systematized method of classi-
fying individuals has been developed and finally has the full coopera-
tion of all staff members within the facility. An inmate assessment
of needs has been developed and redeveloped over the past three months
and is being used fairly successfully to determine what particular
needs an inmate has, and what services are available both in-house
and in the community, which can help alleviate some of the problems
experienced by inmates. The system is by no means perfected and will
be further refined during the next year.
One of our major problems at this time is the great need for a
definitive use of the pods ("cell blocks") which we currently have
available for use. A level system is being discussed by the adminis-
trators of the jail and will hopefully be operational within six months.
This, of course, would allow for a better use of the separation classifi-
cation methods we now have available to us. It would mean that an
inmate who is less sophisticated and possibly somewhat passive could
be easily separated and helped, as opposed to those inmates who are
more jail-wise and in need of different types of services.
In order to achieve such a goal , we must be able to provide an
open environment in which growth, mutual trust, and a lessened fear
of violence can take place.
To achieve such an end however, calls for a facility in which
overcrowding is not a serious problem. As the following information
shows, the growth of the inmate population within this jail is
rapidly increasing to the point where the current facility may be
obsolete much sooner than anticipated.

Population within the SMSA consist of 83.7% persons of
European or Asian (white) descent; 16,1 percentage persons
of Spanish descent; and .2 percentage of Negro descent. The

The City of Greeley, including Northern Colorado State
University, is located in the Western Central portion of the
county near two major highways (Interstate 25 and State High-
way 85). The county is fortunate in having a sound financial
base relying on agriculture for it's main income with industry,
education and government representing the secondary sources of
income. Weld County is one of the "top ten" agricultural pro-
ducing counties in the United States. In 1976 only 3.5%
(1,991 persons) of the SMSA's civilian labor force (56,131
persons) were unemployed, which compares to a 3.8% unemployment
rate experienced in 1970. In 1978, Weld County experienced a
2.8% unemployment rate which compares to a nationwide unemploy-
ment rate of 5% . The 1977 per capita income for the SMSA
-3-
was $5,841.00. Assessed valuation within the SMSA rose from
$202.0 million in 1970 to $666.9 million in 1978, an increase
of $464.8 million.
Located in Greeley is the Weld County Sheriff's Department
which operates the County Jail . The Jail , like other county
jails, has sometimes afforded the opportunity for an offender
to learn criminal behavior and establish other criminal contacts
in the community. Further, a county jail is a likely place to
teach fear, suspicion, and aggression towards others and to the
criminal justice system. It is also quite easy for people to
become victims or perpetrators within the confines of the jail .
Therefore, inappropriate behavior instead of being suppressed
or eliminated may increase while the person is incarcerated.
Under the former administration of Ernest D. Bower, the Weld
County Sheriff's Department and the County Commissioners opened
a new $4.2 million jail complex in Greeley. These planners had
no intentions of perpetuating the old social system and there-
fore a professional Jail Administrator was hired along with an
adequate security force and professional , Master's level plus,
counseling staff.
The new jail opened in February 1978. Since then much has
happened. Although in early 1978 a comprehensive 120 hour train-
ing program was developed and presented on three separte occasions,
since the Autumn of 1978 training for jail security staff has been
minimal . The basic training new staff has received since the Fall
of 1978 has consisted of Hostage Management Training, Correctional
Officers Survival Training, and some interpersonal skills develop-
ment. All of these training programs have been developed and put
on by the Programs Unit under which the Classification/Intake project
is supervised.

Our booking information shows that we experienced an average of
18% increase in bookings for the period of January 1978 until June of
1979. We are projecting an average of 17% increase for the six month
period from July 1979 until December 1979. Projections for July 1979
until July 1981, show an average increase of 14%. This disheartening
data indicates that if the trends continue as the past two and one
half years indicate, we will experience a serious overcrowding period
before the end of this year.
The following information shows the correlative data relating
to our average daily population over the past several years. It is
interesting to note that we are incarcerating approximately 25% of
those booked. Thuswe may predict that by December of 1979, we will
have an average daily population of 91.75 people.

There are several avenues to pursue which may solve some of the
problems that the Weld County Jail is experiencing. Obviously, the
Classification/Intake Section can provide services which may help
alleviate some of the overcrowding as well as providing a service
to the inmate population. By having a professional staff available
to inmates to deal with not only the problems which cause them to
be incarcerated, but also the anxillary problems such as loss of
employment, divorce resulting from incarceration, build up of debts,
and drug abuse, we can make referrals to various community agencies
cooperating to alleviate some of these problems. This referral
process is probably one of the most important aspects of the project.
It has been shown time and time again that an in-house program will
usually not succeed in reducing recidivism or having much other im-
pact upon those inmates incarcerated. Therefore, it appears that
a utilization of community resources, tied together by the coordination
of the Classification/Intake Section, could help, in a more holistic
manner, to keep the inmate in the community as a lawabiding citizen.
-6-
The Classification/Intake project will provide: not only an
atmosphere for change of behaviors, but also for the safe and
legal operation of the jail facility. By creating as positive
an environment as possible, we can more readily gain access to
the individual inmate's problems and develop intervention systems
designed to alter the criminal lifestyle.
The problem of overcrowdedness can also be alleviated to
some degree by the development of a Community Corrections Program.
As this grant is being submitted, the Weld County Commissioner
is meeting with representatives from the State Department of
Corrections, Jail Staff, and various comunity leaders in hopes of
developing a Community Corrections Program during the next year.
When this project gets off the ground, at least a percentage of those
who would normally serve time in jail will be able to be diverted to
a Community Corrections Program.

42. PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
In developing our objectives for the second year of this grant, it
became quite apparent that some of the objectives of the first year grant
were either unreachable or poorly written. We therefore decided to make
some changes so that specific objectives could be reached without the
sacrifice of our overall goals. The following goals were therefore devel-
oped and represent the combined input of all staff members within the
Section, the Project Director, and the current Jail Administrator,
Captain Mike Metzger.
Goals:
1. To develop and continue to refine a model Classification/Intake
system.
2. To continue to aid in the process of developing the Weld County
Jail into a facility based on Constitutional legal foundations.
3. To continue to refine the abilities of the Weld County Jail to
provide protection and efficient correctional services for the
population of Weld County and to the inmates of the Weld County
Jail .
Stated Project Objectives:
1. Classify on an ongoing basis an average daily population of
approximately 90 to 100 inmates.
2. Complete 1,200 initial intake interviews.
3. Provide '200 referrals to community agencies providing post-re-
lease services (e.g. , food stamps, Colorado State Employment
Services, etc. ) .
4. To utilize various instruments to measure the effects of services
provided by in House staff and community agencies to inmates
incarcerated in the Weld County Jail .
5. To provide pre-release planning to 130 inmates.
6. To provide community referrals, such as family counseling, child-
care, and employment assistance to the families of 25 inmates.
7. To maintain a comprehensive data base on all persons booked into
and incarcerated at the Weld County Jail .
8. To develop and implement a community volunteer program.
9. To provide counseling and preparation to those inmates who will
be transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections from
the Weld County Jail and who request such help.

43. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND WORK PLAN
In determining strategies for achieving the goals and objectives of
a Classification/Intake Project, it is first necessary to identify poten-
tial alternatives in solving the various problems brought about by not
having such a system in existence. Therefore, the various alternatives
will be presented along with the pros and cons, cost involvement, and
why these alternatives do not appear feasible.
A. ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS:
ALTERNATIVE 1:
The in-house counseling staff would conduct all classification and
intake interviews. There are financial advantages to assigning the exist-
ing personnel who staff in-house counseling sessions, to conduct classi-
fication and intake interviews. A counselor II is employed as the in-
house counselor and supervises anywhere from three to six interns from the
University of Northern Colorado. All interns are unpaid. As the counselor
is already on staff and familiar with the various procedures of the jail
and judicial system, she would be eminently qualified to make appropriate
referrals following intake interviews. This counselor is also aware of
the various components of each pod within the jail and is familiar with
all staff currently employed by the Weld County Sheriff's Office. If monies
were available, the In-House Counseling Section could be greatly increased
in staff members and assume the additional function of classification and .
intake.
On the negative side of this alternative is the very real problem of
workloads already handled by the In-House Counseling Section. This Section
deals with an average of twenty-five to thirty inmates per month in coun-
seling sessions and problem resolutions. If this Section had to perform
1,200 intake assessment interviews per year it would average out to over
four and one-half interviews per day for a five day week. This obviously
would not solve any problems , but create a new one by putting too large
a workload on a person already burdened with extensive overtime to date.
It would most likely lead to the situation, experienced in virtually
every other jail within the State of Colorado, of having one person briefly
interviewing all inmates to be incarcerated and making a "gut level "
decision about the particular person being interviewed at the time. The
problems of this system are quite obvious. Subjectivity would be the
-10-
major factor in making a classification. As we are trying to develop a
system based on objective data rather than subjective judgements , this
alternative appears quite poor.
ALTERNATIVE 2:
Work Release staff, consisting of two counselors, could perform the
classification/intake function. The benefits for this alternative are
similar to the benefits pointed out in using In-House Counseling staff
for classification and intake. More specifically, the Work Release staff
members are familiar with the operations of the jail and are professionally
trained, like the In-House Counseling staff. The problems with using
Work Release staff are similar to the In-House Counseling problems since
the Work Release staff is quite busy running their own program, which
consists of 14 to 16 individuals in the Work Release program, and the
trusty program which contains seven to nine inmates. As it stands now
both of these counselors work an average of fifty to fifty-five hours a
week, and, as with the In-House Counselor alternative, the additional
work would certainly burn these two people out in very short order.
ALTERNATIVE 3:
The jail security staff could perform the classification/intake
function. This alternative may be the most feasible in that security
staff has the most contact with the inmates via the booking process,
dress out process , and movement to the various pods located in the jail .
The problem with using a security person to perform intake interviews •
has been experienced in virtually every other jail in this state and in
many other jails within the United States. Again, the problem of sub-
jectivity rears it's ugly head and returns us to the days when a man
doing an interview would go entirely on his gut reactions, thereby totally
eliminating objective information.
ALTERNATIVE 4:
The jail would contract with an outside agency such as Community
Mental Health to provide all classification and intake interviews. This
alternative might work, but it appears that most Mental Health agencies
would too narrowly define the scope of their interview. A classification
process based solely on psychological interviews would only tell us a
small part about the inmate being interviewed. Such factors as officer
observation, past criminal and incarceration history, and how the inmate
-11-
will fit into the social system of the jail would probably not be con-
sidered by a psychologist. It would also mean that an outsider was making
major decisions concerning the operation of the jail - hardly an alter-
native worthy of serious consideration.
B. WORK PLAN
In providing a description of the strategy we will use for obtaining
stated objectives the following format will be used:
1. The objective will be stated.
2. A detailing of the strategies and methods to be used in reaching
our objectives will be discussed.
3. A chart of our work plan will be included.
C. NARATIVE ON WORK PLAN.
1. "Classify on an ongoing basis an average daily inmate population
of 90-100."
After the inmate is completely booked into the Jail he is placed in
one of the holding cells located in the Booking area. Between the time
the individual either bonds out of the Jail or goes to his preliminary
hearing, the processing officer will run a complete NCIC or CCIC check
on the arrestee. If the inmate is bonded out of Jail after being arrested,
we will have nothing further to do with him until such time as he may
return to the Jail . We will however collect basic demographic data on
the inmate via the Intake Data Sheet (Appendix #1). If the inmate goes
to the preliminary hearing and returns to the Jail due to his inability
to make bond, the following procedures are followed: a) One of the
members from the Classification/Intake Section will conduct a brief inter-
view with the inmate to determine if he should go to the observation
intake pod (G Pod) , or the minimum security intake pod (B Pod) . b) Within
five days, the Classification/Intake Team members will complete an Inmate
Assessment Form (Appendix #2) , the Inmate Self Report Inventory (a form
by which the inmate can provide information concerning his wishes con-
cerning classification and other important information about his incar-
ceration) (Appendix #3) , the Security Observation Sheet (a form filled out
by officers on the inmate detailing observable objective behavior of the
inmate)(Appendix #4) , the Interviewer's Impressions (a structuralized
means of detailing the interviewers ' subjective perceptions of the inmate)
-12-
(Appendix #5) , and the FIRO-B (a group or individual psychological screen-
ing device which determines fundamental interpersonal relations factors) .
c) The results of this interviewing process are analysed and weighted by
members of the Classification/Intake Team. d) On a twice weekly basis,
a member of the Classification/Intake staff will meet with members from
Medical Services, Security and another member from the Programs Unit. This
committee will then make a determination as to the initial housing required
for the inmate after placement in the Intake Pod. It should be pointed
out, that the inmate has input into this process up to this point via
written requests, his own self statements and requested interviews as
needed. e) For the reclassification process, at the same meeting mentioned
previously in which the Classification members meet with Medical Services
and Security, reclassification requests are considered. If the inmate so
desires he may submit a written request or request an interview with the
entire team. This is entirely left up to the inmate' s option. f) In the
event of disciplinary action against an inmate, the appropriate Watch
Commander will notify the Classification Supervisor who will then handle
the necessary documentation and processes needed to make a move to another
pod if that is the results of the disciplinary hearing.
2. "Complete 1,200 initial intake interviews. "
As mentioned under the previous objective, immediately after the pre-
liminary hearing the inmate will be contacted by a member of the Classi-
fication/Intake staff. The brief interview will be conducted at this time
and initial Intake Pod placement will be resolved (Appendix #6) .
3. "Provide 200 referrals to community agencies providing post-
release services. "
This service is conducted at several different phases during the
inmate' s stay within the Weld County Jail . The various times that a
referral may be made are as follows:
a) At the time of the initial intake assessment interview, questions
are asked of the inmate concerning personal or social needs that
he may have. If it becomes apparent that a problem may develop
for him once he is released at this point a referral will be
made.
b) During the inmate assessment period a complete social , psycho-
logical , family, educational , and medical history is taken. At
-13-
this point the inmate is again asked if he has any particular
needs which may be filled by either in-house or outside agencies.
If this case is so, notes are entered into the inmate's file
which is opened by the Classification/Intake staff member con-
ducting the interview (Appendix #7) , and an appropriate referral
is made at that time.
c) If the inmate is not released and is held in Jail for an extended
period of time, the inmate is assigned a counselor from either
the Classification/Intake staff, the In-House Counseling staff
(to include interns) , or the Work Release counseling section.
Which ever counselor is assigned, will track the inmate through
his stay within the Jail . As it appears that he will be released
soon, the counselor will make final contact with the inmate and
determine what referrals need to be made prior to his release.
Once he is released, we will contact any agencies to which the
inmate has been referred to make sure that a sound referral has
been made.
d) On a quarter basis we will mail out a questionnaire (to be devel-
oped in September, 1979) to the various agencies which are pro-
viding a majority of the services to our inmate population to
determine various factors such as the quality of the referral
process, the level of inmate follow-up on referrals, if the agency
or organization can add anything to services which may be valu-
able to our clientele, a suggestion of needs which we see for
ourselves and solicit potential solutions, and to determine if
the agency or organization has any ideas as to what else might
be added to our program which may help our inmates.
4. "To utilize various instruments to measure the effect of services
provided by In-House staff and community agencies to inmates
incarcerated in Weld County Jail . "
In present the strategy for fulfillment of this objective, we will
present our methods as a Pilot research design. The research will be con-
ducted over a five month period. We are tentatively planning to start the
actual research in January and running it through May, 1980. In explain-
ing this strategy, we will present a series of questions and answers to
aid the reviewer in understanding the fulfillment of this objective.
-14-
Who will participate?
One group consisting of an experimental group of 12-16 members , all
of which will be volunteers. They will be housed in a minimum security
pod. A control group of approximately double the size of the experi-
mental group. All will be volunteers for the pre- and post-tests. They
will be general population inmates.
How will they be selected?
They will self select by volunteering as part of the experimental
group, knowing the requirements and responibilities of the experimental
group. They will receive certain privileges (such as a counselor's
presence thrice daily) as a result of; a) their demonstrated responsible
behavior, b) their willingness to accept the responsibilities demanded of
the experimental group. The control group will also be self-selected by
demonstrating a number of basic responsibilities, among these being a
willingness to cooperate with the Classification staff by agreeing to
participate in the Classification/Intake procedures , which include cer-
tain physiological and psychological tests. The purpose of these tests
is to determine a personal profile of the individual for purposes of
identifying exactly how the Programs staff may most effectively be of
service. Since we have the individual in custody and are responsible for
his well being; it behoves us to serve him and maintain or improve his
physical , psychological and any other well being which he may have. To
do this we test the individuals to find out what is needed.
What will the experimental procedure be?
Each morning, noon, and early evening a counselor will come into the
pod with a tape recorder and a tape. The tape will contain musical sounds ,
voice recordings , or a combination of the two. For approximately 15
minutes the counselor will lead the experimental group in certain physical
exercises, mostly designed to stretch, balance, and align the body.
Then the tape will be played and the experimental group and counselor
will listen to the tape together for approximately one-half hour. At the
end of the time the tape recorder will be turned off and the counselor will
be available to anyone who wants or needs to share verbally. After the
meeting the counselor will also be available to anyone who expresses a
need for personal consultation.
-15-
What are the risks?
The experimental procedure is designed to provide the experimental
subjects with direction (education) , stimulus, structured opportunity,
and peer motivation and pressure to gain access to thoughts, memories ,
and feeling which, for whatever reason, are not immediately available
to the conscious mind. The nature of the directions and the environment
will be structured to make the availability of this material minimally
frightening, or otherwise negative experiences in their lives , may find
themselves gaining access to those same kinds of thoughts and feelings.
It is important that the counselor be available to them to assist them
in dealing with these experiences which emerge from forgotten, repressed,
or otherwise "closed off" parts of them.
What are the benefits expected?
1. Increased ability to master physiological functions, such as
muscle energy output, blood pressure, respiration , galvonic skin response,
etc.
2. More affirmative and balanced psychological responses and attitudes
as demonstrated by the psychological tests given pre- and post-.
3. Better general health as subjectively reported.
4. Greater self acceptance, as demonstrated both by subjective
report and psychological profile.
5. More affirmative acceptance of others as demonstrated by both
subjective report and psychological evaluation.
6. Greater calm and less incidence of negative behavior as demon-
strated by incidence reports, by security evaluation, and self report and
also by comparison with control group.
Specifically how will change be measured?
Both the control and experimental group will participate in the com-
plete inmate assessment package including the FIR0-B. They will also be
administered a number of other psychological tests. They will be observed
and behavioral checklists will be filled out on them by members of the
security staff who have observed them.
Finally, they will be checked for baseline levels of electromyographic
readout (muscle tension level ) , galvonic skin response, respiration rate,
blood pressure rate, and pulse rate. These are all physiological measures
usually beyond control of the conscious mind and used as indicators of
-16-
physiologically stored anxiety. It is predicted that the experimental
group will demonstrate greater control over these variables than the con-
trol group.
The same tests and observations will be administered individually when
anybody in either the experimental or control groups leave the jail , and
at the end of three months. At one and two months intervals , the same
tests will be administered to a new group as pre-test to admit new members
to the experimental and control groups. They will be post-tested at the
end of the original three month experimental period, and also at the end
of their three month experimental period or whenever they leave the jail
prior to that time.
By analyzing the data received from the newly admitted members of the
experimental and control groups we will be able to identify whether there
is any increased effect from being in the presence of trained and disci-
plined peers, thus controlling for human environmental influence.
What benefits may be predicted if the results do not show a significant
difference between the experimental and control groups?
It is widely acknowledged that habits of behavior are formed by
repetition. The experimental group will have had three months of thrice
daily practice in impulse control , internal reflectiveness, patience de-
velopment, and various other practices designed to develop physical and
mental experiences of well being. It may be predicted that the habits
consonant with these practices will be formed in that period of time.
Since most of the crimes committed by persons in the Weld County Jail have
been committed on impulse and out of feelings of anxiety of one sort or
another, it may be predicted that this increased habitual control of im-
pulse will continue to manifest itself in decreased criminal activity.
5. "To provide pre-release planning to 130 inmates. "
The pre-release planning will basically center around a multifaceted
program of Life Skills training. The Life Skills training will involve
General Health training issues presented by the Weld County Health Depart-
ment. Public Health Nurses will visit the jail twice weekly for an hour
each class. This training will be done in coordination with the In-House
Counselor (not a member of the Classification/Intake Section) . Secondly,
we will use a program developed by the American Correctional Association
and used in numerous jails throughout the United States. This program
-17-
will deal with such basic issues as how to fill out checkbooks, how to
fill out job applications , basic home budgeting, and other skills related
to day-to-day existence. This program will be taught by the Secretary
to the Unit, the Counselor I - Linda Plasters, and interns assigned to
the Programs Unit. Individuals identified in need of this type of plan-
ning will be referred to it through the Classification Supervisor who
will review all open cases. Pre- and post-testing will be utilized when-
ever appropriate with the various forms of training.
6. "To provide community referrals to the families of 25 inmates."
Fulfillment of this objective will be accomplished in several ways.
One method of course will be via the Inmate Assessment Form. When it
appears to the counselor conducting the interview that the inmate's
family is also in need of services permission will be sought to contact
the family to determine further needs and appropriate referrals made at
that time. All counselors will have available services within the com-
munity. Additionally, counselors are frequently available during visita-
tion hours (most of the counseling offices are directly across the hall
from the visitation area). During this time it is not unlikely that
inmate' s family members will stop and speak to the counselor and therefore
increase the potentiality for referrals.
7. "To maintain a comprehensive data base on all persons booked into
and incarcerated at the Weld County Jail ."
Achievement of this goal will 'be conducted in several manners. When
an individual is booked into the Weld County Jail the booking or proces-
sing officer will complete the Intake Data Sheet on 100% of those booked
into the jail . This sheet (Appendix #1) , covers basic demographic infor-
mation concerning the individual being booked in. This form is then
placed in the Classification mailbox. It is planned to have this form
along with all other booking forms included on the computer jail manage-
ment program which will be operational in the near future. If this be-
comes the case, the compiled data from the sheets will be available to
the Classification team for analysis at any time. Secondly, all informa-
tion completed during the inmate assessment interview will be likewise
correlated either by hand or by computer. In sum, these two sources will
provide a substantial amount of data concerning all individauls booked,
and those individuals who stay in the jail over three days. The data
-18-
collected will be analyzed by the Counselor II , Cody Wathen. Information
collected on the Inmate Assessment Forms will be completed by potentially
all staff members of the Section.
8. "To develop and implement a community volunteer program."
A volunteer program within the Weld County Jail has been desired for
quite some time. The new Jail Administrator recently gave us approval to
start such a program. We see the establishment and implementation of such
a program as a lengthy process involving many staff members doing different
tasks. The process will involve approximately ten major steps. The imple-
mentation steps are:
1) Identify elements required for a volunteer program, e.g. , job
descriptions , security clearances required, identification cards
or devises and a multitude of other factors necessary for the
development of the program.
2) Develop job descriptions.
3) Develop training program.
4) Develop and implement public awareness of the program and need
for volunteers.
5) Recruit volunteer applicants.
6) Screen and train volunteers.
7) Start volunteers in their positions.
8) Review and change as necessary, elements of the training program.
9) Recruit second group of volunteers.
10) Screen and train second group of volunteers.
11) Review and change as necessary the training program or all other
elements of the volunteer program.
Due to our contacts with other agencies within the community, we
expect to have such agencies as Weld Mental Health, The Alcoholic Recovery
and Rehabilitation Center, and the New Horizons Drug Abuse program also
providing training services. However, the majority of training will be
conducted by Programs and Security staff of the Weld County Jail .
9. "To provide counseling in preparation to those inmates who will
be transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections from
the Weld County Jail and who request such help."
When an individual who is housed in the Weld County Jail receives a
sentence to the Department of Corrections, the counselor assigned to that
-19-
individual will make immediate contact with him to determine what social
services he needs and wants prior to his transfer to the Department of
Corrections. These services may include necessary phone calls to his
family members, potential referrals for his family, brief adjustmental
counseling, etc. It is hoped that a great proportion of this work can
be completed by volunteers. Such things as phone calls , letters written,
or other brief contacts can easily be accomplished by trained volunteers.
10. "To establish and/or maintain contact and coordination with
state and other county correctional agencies having similar
interests in the field of classification and/or inmate services. "
This objective will be addressed in several fashions. All counselors
assigned to the Unit will maintain records concerning the amount and type
of contact with correctional agencies. A more long term method of estab-
lishing this contact will be via a survey developed by the Classification/
Intake Section querying other agencies concerning their types of classi-
fication systems and quality and quantity of services offered to their
inmate population. This survey will be developed by the Supervisor,
Project Director and Counselor I. The survey mail out distribution and
receipt of the survey results will be coordinated by the Secretary, Maria
Ketterling. The data received from the survey will be analyzed by Cody
Wathen, Counselor II . After the data has been fully analyzed, a report
will be written by the Classification/Intake Team. The survey will then
be sent out to those parties who have expressed an earlier interest in
receiving the results. A third method will be an ongoing process of
frequent contact with local parties having interest in the field of
classification and service to inmates. Such agencies as the local Probation
Services Office, Public Defenders Office, the POST House - Drug Abuse
Treatment Center in Longmont, the Larimer County Community Corrections
Program, and other local agencies will be contacted on a frequent basis.
In the past, we have made a great effort to share ideas , policy and pro-
cedures, and new systems with each other. This "friendly liaison" will
continue and be expanded to include other agencies not previously con-
tacted. This type of contact will be handled by all members of the Classi-
fication/Intake Team.
11. "Develop inmate involvement in the design and delivery of services
offered by the Programs Unit. "
-20-
We will address this objective in several ways.
a) Every inmate who has participated in at least three sessions of
any service offered in the jail will be asked to complete a
standardized subjective evaluation (the Inmate Programs Question-
naire; to be developed) concerning the services he has been in-
volved with. This questionnaire will be given to the inmate
by the particular group leader or counselor.
b) On a quarterly basis, interns supervised by the Counselor I will
sample the jail population concerning their ideas about improving
the services offered, the need for new services , and feedback
concerning the quality of services in which they were involved.
c) The data received from both questionnaires will be analyzed by
the Counselor II, Cody Wathen.
12. "Develop line staff involvement in the evaluation of services
offered or coordinated by the Programs Unit. "
The primary means of meeting this objective will be accomplished by
the use of a questionnaire given to Security staff on a quarterly basis.
The questionnaire will attempt to determine the level of familiarity that
the individual staff member has with the various programs offered. They
will rate their familiarity, thus giving us some idea of how knowledgeable
they are of the actual programs offered. This of course gives us valuable
information concerning our "public relations" with Security staff. The
second part of the questionnaire will deal with their subjective responses
to the programs themselves. The third part of the questionnaire will
allow the respondent to offer suggestions for improvement or addition of
programs. This question will be distributed by the interns or volunteers
working at the Jail . In the event that volunteers or interns are unavail-
able the In-House Counselor will conduct the questionnaire survey. Data
collected on this survey will be analyzed by the Project Director.

D. STAFF AND OTHER PROJECT RESOURCES
1. INTERNAL RESOURCES
In considering the needs for continuation of the Classification/
Intake Project existing internal resources within the Weld County
Sheriff's Department must be assessed, for it is these resources which
provide the mainstay of any project. There are three main areas of
internal resources to be considered. Each of these resources will be
reviewed in detail .
1. The facility
2. Project and Programs Staff.
3. Security, Support, and Departmental Staff.
The Facility
In 1974 the Weld County Commissionsers approved and provided fund-
ing for the construction of a $4.3 million dollar Law Enforcement Center,
which is now completed. Joining the Centennial Building and County
Court House, the Law Enforcement Center completes a county services com-
plex located in downtown Greeley.
The Law Enforcement Center contains the administrative offices of
the Sheriff's Department, along with the investigators and Patrol deputies
assigned to the north end of Weld County. Also located in this building
is the Weld County Jail and Juvenile Detention Center. The adult Jail
section occupies three of the four floors of the Law Enforcement Center,
and the Juvenile Detention Center operates on the administrative floor,
(first floor) .
Great consideration was given to the safety and security of both
the staff and the incarcerated in the Center. Public and open areas
are monitored by a total of 83 close-circuit television cameras , and
most doors are controlled electrically. In addition, there are heat
and motion detectors located stratigically throughout the building to
prevent the entrance to unauthorized areas.
Visitation was structually facilitated by a visitation desk loc-
ated in the main lobby of the building. Staff at the desk control a
stairway leading to the contact and non-contact visiting areas of all
levels of custody. This allows a visiting policiy which is open,
quick, and requires low person-hours to carry out.
-27-
The new Weld County Jail allows for the separation of the
inmate population into eight groups. Each group may be physically
separated by structural aspects of the facility. The eight sections ,
called Pods, are as follows:
POD CAPACITY
Juvenile Males 10
Juvenile Females 6
A-Women 16
B-Intake 18
C-Medium Custody 26
D-Minimum Custody 20
E-Pre-Release 14
F-Trusty 13
G-Observation 20
All Pods consist of rooms located off an open area which con-
tains tables. Rooms are either double or triple , with approximately
100 square feet per double room, and 163 square feet per triple
occupancy room. With the exception of E Pod, which has bathroom
facilities separate from the individual rooms , each room has a toilet
and sink combination. All rooms have windows or skylights to the
outside, along with a desk/shelf area.
The Juvenile area is divided into two sections, male and female,
each containing separate shower rooms in each section. There is a
door separating the sections which may be opened so that the Juveniles
may share a common day room and recreation area. There are two family
visiting rooms and two offices located in the Juvenile area , used
exclusively for Juveniles.
"A" Pod, which is set aside for women, is located in the adult
section of the jail . There is a small fresh air area in the women's
Pod, as well as separate visiting rooms, both contact and non-contact,
exclusively for women. This section has the structured capability of
separating up to two women from the general women's population.
Located on the same floor are B and C Pods. These Pods are
essentially the same with the exception that C Pod has fresh air
area. The pods share a common day room which may be utilized con-
currently or separately. B Pod is to be utilized as an intake Pod
-28-
and C Pod as a medium security Pod. Pod D is to be utilized as a
minimum custody area, and is designed basically the same as C Pod.
The pre-release, or E Pod, consists of double occupancy rooms
with hanging closets and separate desks. Toilet facilities with
showers are not in the individual rooms, but are located separately
at one end of the pod. The Pod has a fresh air area and individual
locks on the room.
On the third floor are F and G Pods . F Pod is to be utilized
for trustys and does not contain a day room area. The other Pod on
the third floor has several unique characteristics. This observa-
tion Pod, or G Pod, has an officer' s station which is isolated
from the Pod, but has glass windows into the Pod area and a dayroom
area through which the inmates may be observed. The observation Pod
has been set aside for those inmates who are a danger to themselves
or others, We are at this time considering walling off half of G
Pod such that an officer will be able to see into the two separate
sections. One section will be a small observation area where those
inmates needing continual observation or security will be housed.
This section will house approximately seven to nine inmates. The
other section will become our intake Pode which will house the remain-
der of the population in G Pod. We feel that this would allow us to
give constant observation to those inmates who are in most need of it:
newly arrived inmates to the facility and those who are a danger to
themselves or to others.
In the basement are two medical isolation rooms, a padded room,
and two holding tanks. These rooms are for short-term holding, and
are not designed for inmate living.
For common use by the entire adult population is a gym located
on the third floor. This gym has been equipped with basketball , volley-
ball , handball and other sports equipment. Like other areas of the
jail , the gym is monitored by CCTV and heat and motion detectors.
The day rooms, located on second and third floors, have been de-
signed to serve as multipurpose rooms. All three rooms have been stocked
as modest libraries, can serve as classrooms, are available for church
services, and can double as additional space for counseling sessions.
-29-
Of importance to this grant application is the space that has
been set aside for the Classification Team. When the initial grant
was written it was determined that two offices would be sufficient for
the team in which to work. Since that time the Classification/Intake
section has been alloted a total of three offices. The main office
which the secretary and main files are located, and in which the
Counselor I is also situated, contains an excellent communication
system via a normal telephone as well as an "airphone" by which several
key points in the jail can be contacted immediately. This section is
well lighted and is located in the Counseling Section on the second floor
of the jail .
Immediately across from this office is located the Programs
Supervisor who functions as the Project Director of this grant. Within
twenty feet down a hallway toward A Pod, is located the Counselor II ' s
office, which additionally contains a heavy duty secured storage room
in which all test materials and closed cases are stored. In the other
direction from the Classification/Intake office located next to one of
the two Work Release offices is located the Supervisor of the Classi-
fication/Intake section. This office is likewise well situated with one
of the few windows located in the building, and sufficient furniture
for which the Supervisor can perform his job. By placing the Super-
visor in this location, it gives him easy access to the Security
Lieutenant as well as the In-House Counselor and Work Release Staff.
We believe that this greatly increases the coordination of Programs
Staff personnel .
2. PROJECT STAFF
Since the first grant was written in 1978, several major changes
have occurred which influence the grant. When the initial grant
application was submitted, the current Project Director, Tom Mannweiler
was titled the Support Services Director. In this role , he served as
not only the Supervisor to the Intake/Classification Section, Work
Release Section, and In-House Counseling Section but also was the
Supervisor to the Medical Section, Food Services Section, and Jail
Administrations Sections. With the advent of the new administration
taking office in January 1979 , this large Unit was divided and the
Programs Supervisor now is in charge of only those sections having
-30-
to do with Programs. Mr. Mannweiler holds a Masters Degree plus
60 hours in the field of Counselor Education. He has worked with
the Weld County Sheriff's Office since January 1978, and participated
in the writing of the first grant. He has been deeply involved with
the developement of policy and procedures for the Jail Division as well
as serving as one of the first State Certified Jail Trainers in the
State of Colorado.
The Supervisor of the Classification/Intake Section is currently
fill by Dick Wing. Dick joined the Unit in March 1979 and comes to
us from the Boulder-Denver area where he worked in private practice
for approximately seven years. Dick's Field is Counseling Psychology
and he has completed all course work towards a PhD in that Field.
As a private pactitioner, he provided numerous consultative services
to various police, parole, and other criminal justice agencies in
the Boulder and Denver areas. He is an excellent counselor and team
leader. Cody Wathen, the Counselor II , came to us in February 1979.
Cody's Field is also Counseling Psycholgy and he is half way through
the course work necessary for a PhD in that Field. He currently attends
classes part-time at the University of Northern Colorado. Cody's
experience shows an emphasis on statistics, hypnosis and family
counseling.
The third counselor of the Unit who is currently a Counselor I
but who's position will be upgraded to Counselor II is Linda Plasters.
Linda was the first staff member hired on this project in October 1978.
Prior to that time she served as an intern counselor while completing
the course work for a Masters in Rehabilitation Counseling. Between
the time of her internship and starting as a staff member with the
Classification/Intake section , Linda worked as a Security Officer in
the Jail Division. Linda is currently on maternity leave and will
return to full -time work in November 1979. While Linda is absent, we
have hired a temporary employee to fill in for Linda.
The fourth member of our team is Maria Ketterling, our Secretary
IV. Maria is much more that a simple clerical worker to our Section.
She holds a B.S. in Sociology, Criminal Justice Option, and has performed
extensive volunteer counseling work prior to working with the Weld
County Sheriff' s Department. Maria has worked with the Department for
-31-
several years as a Supervisor of the Secretarial Pool of the
Adminstrative Division. She currently handles all clerical functions
as well as performing a great deal of inmate assessments and coordin-
ating our some to start Life Skills program.
In addition to those mentioned for the project, the Programs Unit
also has three other full time staff members to help round out the Unit.
Deborah Harmelink, our In-House Counselor holds a Masters in Rehabilita-
tion Counseling from the University of Colorado. Deborah has worked
with the Unit since January of 1978 and does an excellent job of
coordinating the numerous community agencies performing services within
the facility. She is also developing into an excellent group therapist
and has been a mainstay with the Unit for a year and a half.
Pam Scalia, our Acting Work Release Supervisor, started with the
Department in January of 1978 as a Security Officer. Pam also holds
a Masters in Rehabilitative Counseling. When Pam was hired in April
1978, she was quite happy to get back into her field. Pam does an
excellent job of coordinating the Work Release Program and Trusty
Program. She also provides assistance to Maria in operating the Life
Skills Program.
Our former Work Release Supervisor, Jim Griego, recently left the
Department for another position. His position has been given to Pam
and another Counselor is being screened for at this time.
In addition to paid staff members , we have numerous professional
volunteers, such as Mike Williams, our Departmental Chaplain, who also
holds a Masters degree in Counseling Education. Mike is a sworn Deputy
who provides not only religious services , but also family and patorial
counseling. Aims College who conducts our G.E.D. Program provides a
half time teacher named Robin Schmidt. Robin, who holds a MED in Special
Education is considered to be a staff member even though her salary is
paid by another agency and she only works part-time. Her input into
those in the GED program is very valuable to us.
3. SECURITY, SUPPORT, AND FIELD DIVISION STAFF
Since submitting our first year grant application, numerous changes
have taken place wihtin the Security Unit of the Jail Division. With
the leaving of Steve Thomas , the primary writer of this grant, in
January 1979, a void was left which was not filled until June of this
year. Mike Metzger, who was the former Security Lieutenant under Steve
-32-
Thomas in 1978, was appointed to the position of Jail Captain in June,
1979. Captain Metzger's emphasis is on running a safe and secure facil-
ity which meets to the best of our ability all the Standards as set forth
by the American Correctional Association. He firmly believes in the con-
cept of the Constitutional Jail and is quite supportive of the philosophy
of the Programs Unit as a whole and the Classification/Intake Section
specifically. Captain Metzger is also on the Jail Trainers Advisory
Board along with Tom Mannweiler and Lieutenant Cole, the Supervisor of
the Support Services Unit. Richard Cole, Lieutenant in charge of Support
Services has the function of supervising not only Medical , Food and Admin-
istrative Services but also that of supervising the Juvenile Section.
Lieutenant Cole has worked for the Weld County Sheriff's Department for
the past three years , and is a former High School teacher. He has been
quite cooperative in setting up policy and procedures and administration
functions of the Jail Division. Lieutenant Arliss Powers who was the
former Senior Sergeant within the Jail Division, is currently the Lieu-
tenant in charge of Security. Lieutenant Powers came to Weld County from
Soledad Prison where he worked for many years as a Correctional Officer.
His experience has proved quite valuable to all staff withing the Jail
Division.
Our Medical Section has gone through some changes by losing Dick
Clarke to the Field Division in April , 1979. This Section is still
staffed with highly qualified registered and licensed practical nurses.
The Food Service Section has the unique distinction of employing the
only dietician employed by any Jail within the State of Colorado.
Ms. Chris O'Brien does an excellent job of not only providing nutrition-
ally sound meals but also at a low cost factor.
The Administrative Section supervised by Lieutenant Cole is staffed
by three clerical workers who provide typing assistance to Maria Ketterling
whenever the need arises.
Of high importance is the change in attitude of Field Deputies ,
Sergeants, and Lieutenants towards the Programs Unit. It does not seem
too long ago that all counselors were looked upon with a judicious eye
as "bleeding heart liberals" by most staff members in the Field Division.
Over the past year and a half we have worked quite hard to improve our
relations with Field Deputies. The situation has improved to such an
-33-
extent that over the past five months four deputies have been referred
to the Programs Supervisor or counselors within the Classification/Intake
Section for counseling services. These referrals were done in full coop-
eration by the Field Division Lieutenant, Captain and the Sheriff of Weld
County. We in the Programs Unit feel that this is a major step in inte-
grating ourselves within the Department and providing a service not only
to the inmate population but to the staff.
It is our philosophy that officers are the first to contact people who
break the law, and therefore, can benefit from learning about interper-
sonal communication skills , as well as how to deal with their own stress
and strain due to serving as police officers.
One of our major detractors, is the lack of experience of line staff
who work within the Jail Division. We have had almost a complete turnover
of staff since January, 1978. The causes of this staff turnover are numer-
ous, but seem to revolve around the extremely low pay in comparison to
other counties, and long working hours required by the job with little
overtime compensation. Our county policy is to pay compensatory time at
the rate of time and a half, but with the shortage of manpower it is some-
times several months before individuals are able to take their time off.
Our pay situation may improve by January of 1980 with the advent of a
7 - 10% increase in salaries and fringe benefits. Although this turnover
has cause some difficulties , the Programs Unit and the Classification
Section has continued to maintain an excellent rapport with all staff
members throughout the Department. We find it somewhat difficult to put
our finger on the specific reason why this change has occurred, but feel
that it has a great deal to do with the coming of the new administration.
The new Lieutenants, Sergeants, and new Field Deputies who came on
in January, 1979, were not burdened with the former prejudice of the past
staff under the old Administration. Therefore, the Programs Unit was
seen as an established part of the Department and not the "new guys on
the block. " As mentioned previously staff members have been referred to
us for counseling over the past five months. Additionally, this writer
has spent a considerable amount of time with the Investigations Unit,
helping them develop personality profiles of suspected perpetrators of
crimes. The overall emphasis seems to be a consideration that staff
employed in the Programs Unit are professionals who although may have a
-34-
different philosophical basis concerning criminals , still can provide
a much needed service not only to inmates but also to staff members with-
in the Department.
The addendums to this grant application contains current resumes'
of staff members employed by the Programs Unit.
2. EXTERNAL RESOURCES
The foundation of any jail program rests jointly on two supports:
internal and external resources. External resources consist primarily
of the various community agencies in Greeley and Weld County as well as
State agencies. In order to provide for a continuation of services when
an inmate is released into the community, to provide for services within
the jail , and to avoid duplicating already existing services in the com-
munity, a heavy reliance has been made on outside agencies.
Generally, the Weld County Jail has experienced excellent cooperation
from various agencies , and as time passes this cooperation is expected to
improve even more. In the following paragraphs the various agencies
available to provide services to inmates of the Weld County Jail are de-
scribed. Methods by which the staff of the Weld County Jail Classification/
Intake section and the various inter-agencies will interface will be de-
scribed.
1. Weld County Community Mental Health Center (WCCMHC)
Like other fine mental health centers, the WCCMHC provides a
multitude of services to the community. Individual and group therapy,
family therapy, crisis intervention, psychiatric and psychological
evaluation, and professional consultation, are all services available
to the community and and to our jail . In the past the jail has used
the crisis intervention services and psychiatric evaluations exten-
sively. These services have been provided on an "as needed" basis
and have been quite helpful . However, the services have been very
crisis oriented and have not fulfilled the total need which the jail
has at present. To upgrade these needs, the WCCMHC has provided a
liaison staff member to the jail . This person is available to us for
case assignments, scheduling of evaluations, and setting up consul-
tation to the program staff of the jail . He also provides contact
with other State mental health centers and institutions.
-35-
When an individual enters the intake interview stage of the
Classification/Intake process , the intake staff will determine if
referral to the WCCMHC is appropriate. This will be accomplished
through a variety of psychological measures and interviewing tech-
niques. The intake staff will determine if psychological services
can best be provided by the WCCMHC and will contact that agency
as needed. The intake staff will further arrange for necessary
interviewing rooms as needed by the WCCMHC for evaluations and ther-
apy sessions. With the client' s permission, the intake staff will
provide necessary intake data and existing psychological information
to the WCCMHC staff for smooth transition.
Clients referred to the WCCMHC will fall into the following
categories:
A. Individuals who are already existing clients of the WCCMHC.
B. Individuals requiring a psychiatric evaluation.
C. Those individuals requiring counseling or therapy services
who are unwilling to partake of those services from the
existing staff of the Weld County Jail Program Section.
Data will be maintained concerning those individuals who have been
referred to the WCCMHC, and follow-up information will be obtained
whenever available.
2. Alcoholic Recovery and Rehabilitation Center (ARRC)
• The ARRC is a comprehensive alcoholic treatment center which
provides all services from detoxification through and including
halfway house treatment and out-patient care. Services to the jail
in the past have centered around one-to-one and group counseling
of readily identifiable alcoholics. Although helpful , these services
were quite limited in scope, and only targeted the extremely visible
clients. It is unknown how many alcoholics were overlooked during
this period of time.
All detainees are now screened for potential alcoholic abuse.
Those individuals identified as having potential alcoholic problems
are entered into the intake interview process and are interviewed
using the guidelines established by the State and Federal agencies
governing ARRC. Forms used by ARRC are utilized during this inter-
view stage as a cooperative effort to identify and treat alcoholics
-36-
in Weld County. Upon identification and intake, those individuals
with alcoholic problems will be referred to ARRC staff who then
provide treatment in the jail . As part of the treatment services
available to the Weld County Jail by ARRC, the following information
is provided:
A. Detoxification for those detainees eligible for immediate release,
to be provided at the ARRC detoxification center.
B. Consultation on detoxification to our Medical and Program staff
for those individuals who must remain detained within the jail .
C. Ongoing individaul and group therapy, both within the jail and
at the ARRC for those individuals eligible for treatment releases.
In the past the courts have been cooperative in allowing certain
individuals to be released on various days or nights to attend
individual and group counseling sessions at the ARRC. This pro-
cess will continue and, hopefully, at a greater level .
D. Alcoholic educational awareness sessions at the jail are held on
a regular basis. This helps serve as a preventative measure for
those inmates not yet classifiable as alcoholics , yet potentially
so. Any individual who identifies himself as a person needing
help with an alcoholic problem as a result of attending these ses-
sions will be processed through the intake interviews as afore-
mentioned.
E. Follow-up data on those clients who have participated in the
alcoholic treatment program, both In-House and at the ARRC, will
be provided by ARRC staff. The ARRC will also provide follow-up
referral services for alcoholic clients and their families, such
as, to Alcoholic Anonymous , Al-A-Non, etc.
3. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA)
Across the nation, AA has proven itself to be one of the most
powerful means of heoping an alcoholic abstain from drinking. Weld
County is fortunate in having several AA groups active within its
boundaries. The jail is currently offering space for AA meetings
and will continue to do so. If during initial classification an
individual expresses an interest in AA, he will be referred to the
In-House Counselor, who will introduce him to AA group members with-
in the jail . The individual will then be allowed to attend AA
-37-
meetings which are held on a regular basis within the jail . As
AA is a "grass roots" organization, it may prove somewhat diffi-
cult to obtain follow-up data on those individuals referred to it;
therefore, data maintained on these referrals will consist of
numbers and types referred only. The classification team will
establish contact with AA group leaders in the community to allev-
iate this problem in the future.
4. New Horizons (NH)
New Horizons is an outpatient, short-term drug treatment center
administered by the Weld County Community Mental Health Center. NH
is in the process of establishing a drug group within the jail , which
will be funded through the Colorado Division of Rehabilitation on an
individual client basis. Clients screened during initial classifi-
cation/intake process will be referred to NH as appropriate. The
client will also be referred to Colorado Division of Rehabilitation
for potential case opening.
5. Colorado Division of Rehabilitation
The Colorado Division of Rehabilitation can provide a wide range
of services to those individuals who meet the guidelines for that
agency. Generally, these guidelines require that an individual have
some type of handicap, be a resident of the State of Colorado, and
with services have a feasibility of achieving a maximum level of
rehabilitation. These services would generally be available to those
clients who have a substance abuse problem, an emotional problem, or
a physical disability, and who have a chance of being sentenced to
the Weld County Jail . The intake team would screen those individuals
who meet the needs and make the appropriate referral to the Rehabil-
itation Division. Direct contact would be made with a vocational
rehabilitation counselor and an interview would be scheduled for
contact with the client within the jail setting. If an individual
meets the guidelines for opening a case with the Colorado Division
of Rehabilitation, it is also possible for that individual to be
evaluated for his vocational potential . In many cases , the Division
would pay for this evaluation to another agency. This, of course,
would be quite helpful for those individuals who would be candidates
for the Work Release Program.
-38-
6. Aims College General Equivalency Diploma (GED)
In June, 1978, Aims College began providing an instructor to the
Weld County Jail who offers GED classes to the population. These
classes cover 8th grade and high school equivalency diplomas. As part
of the screening and intake process , individuals are queried concern-
ing their educational achievements, and for those individuals who have
not reached the 8th grade or high school level they will be referred
to the GED program for possible entrance into that program. The in-
take team will notify the In-House Counselor or Work Release super-
visor when such an individual is identified for scheduling and inter-
view with the GED teacher.
7. Colorado Correctional Community Services and Adult Parole (CCCSAP)
The CCCSAP, which is under the Department of Institutions ,
Division of Corrections, provides supervision of parolees from the
Colorado State Penitentiary and the Colorado State Reformatory, and
supervision of out-of-state probationers and parolees under the
Interstate Compact Agreement. During the classification process,
those individuals identified as being on parole will be referred to
the local parole officer for disposition.
8. Colorado Judicial Department: Probation Services (PS)
The PS which services the Nineteenth Judicial District provides
pre-sentence investigations, advice to the courts concerning bonding
information, and supervision of probationers. The classification
team works with PS in providing them with information relevant to
setting bond. The classification and intake team also provides in-
formation to PS for pre-sentence investigation , and works in coor-
dination with the In-House Counselor and Work Release supervisor in
making recommendations concerning work release or school release for
detainees. The intake and classification team maintains almost daily
contact with PS to achieve the aforementioned purposes. PS is also
working with us on our Life Skills Program.
9. Weld County Human Resources Division (WCHRD)
WCHRD has three programs which are of use to the Weld County
Jail :
A. Manpower/CETA
"Through Comprehensive Employment and Training Act, known as CETA,
it provides assistance toward securing jobs for the economically dis-
-39-
advantaged, the unemployed, and the under-employed. It accomplishes
this through education, vocational training and work experience pro-
grams , some with work or student subsidy." (WCHRD official handout)
This program is available for those individuals who will either be
released from the Weld County Jail or sentenced to it and potentially
eligible for work release. The intake team can make referrals to the
Manpower/CETA program of those individuals who have a poor unemploy-
ment or under-employment history. WCHRD has allocated five to nine
on-the-job training slots for work release participants of the Weld
County Jail . WCHRD works in coordination with the Work Release Super-
visor and In-House Counselor after intake has been made to place
these individuals in appropriate on-the-job training sites , or to
provide vocational education when available.
B. Transportation
WCHRD has been cooperative in the past in providing mini-bus
transportation to the Weld County Jail on various occasions. For
those individuals who meet the guidelines of being handicapped and
are a low income family who do not have reasonable access to public
or private transportation, the mini -bus will be available. This will
prove extremely useful for individuals making initial contacts with
potential employers and in reaching other various agencies in the
community.
C. Supplemental Foods
Although no individuals within the Weld County Jail will be re-
ceiving supplemental foods, those individuals ' families may qualify
for this service. It has been shown far too often that when a bread-
winner is incarcerated his family suffers the most. The intake team
will, therefore, provide information to the individual concerning sup-
plemental foods so that his family will not also have to share the
brunt of the burden of his incarceration.
10. POST House
POST House is a therapuetic drug community located in Longmont,
Colorado. We have had fairly good success in getting inmates refer-
red to POST House as part of their bonding or sentencing agreement.
This work has been done in cooperation with the Probation Services
Office. Our local county and district judges have been quite agree-
-40-
able to the option of sentencing someone to POST House and to
making admittance to POST House a condition to bond.
11. Weld County Health Department
The Weld County Health Department through it' s public health
nurses will start a section of our Life Skills course in July, 1979.
These nurses will come in twice a week for an hour each time to deal
with human sexuality, stress reduction, nutrition, exercise, and
alcohol abuse education. We are being charged nothing for this
service.
12. Local Churches
Through the outstanding efforts of Mike Williams , the Depart-
mental volunteer Chaplin, we have established firm contact with most
of the major churches in the Greeley area. Most Protestant and
Catholic churches provide a minister or priest once a week for relig-
ious services for the inmate population. These churches have addi-
tionally been helpful in providing charitable work such as clothing
for inmates to wear upon release, or short term loans.
13. Other Jail and Correctional Institutions
Over the past year, we have made extensive efforts to open lines
of communication with various other jails and community corrections
programs within the state. Boulder County Jail has been especially
helpful in providing consultative services concerning recreational
programs and treatment modalities. Larimer County Community Correc-
tions Program has worked very closely with us and the Probation Ser-
vices in accepting three people into their Community Corrections
Program from Weld County. The Larimer County Jail has also provided
technical assistance and information on security matters and program-
matic issues. We have recently also opened up lines of communication
with El Paso County Jail , Jefferson County Jail and to some extent
Denver County Jail . These three jails and their staff have provided
us with interesting data concerning classifications and other proces-
sing information. We in turn of course have shared information with
them.
14. Other
There are approximately 20 to 25 other agencies in the Weld County
area who could potentially provide services to inmates of the Weld
-41-
County Jail. Although these services will be used infrequently,
their availability is important to any comprehensive intake team.
The Weld Information and Referral Service Manual will be used as
a starting point to fulfill the need of contacting these particular
agencies when the need arises. This Manual lists several hundred
agencies in the Weld County area who can provide a variety of ser-
vices to the community. Upon identifying a specific need not cover-
ed in the previous ten paragraphs , the intake team would try to
locate the appropriate service offered and make the necessary con-
tacts with that agency.
E. EFFECTS AND IMPACT
If our project is successful (and we believe it is partially so al-
ready) , we hope that it will show that systems of classifications can be
easily based on objective data and observations rather than the predomi-
nant methods used in most jails to date, of using subjective, gut level
feelings about a particular inmate. Our first year was spent primarily
in developing this system. Our second hope is to achieve the goal of
simplifying the system so that it can be used in other facilities of like
size or characteristics. Our intake system is in our opinion quite suc-
cessful already. Our development of community support for the jail and
our programs has already meet with excellent success. The community of
Greeley is quite interested in our Jail and how we provide services . Of
course, the intake aspect of this system is the first step in funneling
a person in need into the system which can best help him. Therefore, the
intake process must be based on sound foundations and a humanistic atti-
tude. It is therefore critical to quickly and effectively identify those
individuals needing services and to either provide services or refer them
to other agencies who can do so. To achieve this end would be considered
a resounding success.
Our efforts in the process of developing the Weld County Jail into
a facility based on Constitutional legal foundations is likewise moving
rapidly along. Our Sheriff has mandated that the Jail abide by the stan-
dards as set up by the American Correctional Association. We all believe
that we are very near the point of being able to state that our Jail is
a Constitutional Jail providing all the legal rights available to inmates ,
as well as necessary services to aid the inmate in re-integrating into the
-42-
community or, making the transition to another facility. The impact that
achievement of this goal will have is somewhat more difficult to measure.
It will however, show other government officials and administrators that
a medium size jail such as the Weld County Jail , can be run on Constitu-
tional foundations and still provide safety and security for the community.
The achievement of this goal basically shows that our department, and
specifically the Jail , is concerned with the rights of all citizens - even
to include those who have been accused of or convicted of breaking the
law.
A second impact of the success of this goal will effect the inmate
population. They are the recipients of all services and care that we
provide. Therefore, if they are able to temporarily live in the jail
environment under Constitutional rights, they will surely benefit and be
afforded the same rights as other citizens in our country.
A third group that can benefit from our goal achievement is the
other agencies in our community and state. For many of these agencies
to reach their goals, they must provide a certain level of service deliv-
ery. By referring those clients to the agencies who can best benefit, the
other agencies will therefore be able to better meet their own goals of
service delivery.
The fourth group that will be impacted upon by achievement of out
goals is the staff of the Weld County Jail . It is oftentimes common to
see staff members forgotten in the process of any system. However, it is
our philosophy that staff members are important people and need to know
that what they are doing is good, right and beneficial to the community,
the inmates served and themselves. Knowing that one works within a Con-
stitutional Jail that is held as a model for other jails to emulate is
indeed a situation that can invoke great pride in staff members working
in that facility.
Additionally, being able to take credit for increasing the efficiency
of the Jail by improving the means of having a safe and secure facility
will also help our own staff.
Our State Objective of, "Re-evaluate existing diagnostic and classi-
fication systems and make recommendations for improving their efficiency
and effectiveness", can also be aided by the achievement of our goals.
-43-
As there are few, if any classification systems in the State of Colorado
based on a comprehensive objective system, we are certainly helping to
meet this State Objective by developing an excellent objective Classi-
fication/Intake system. We know of no other jail in this State which is
anywhere near reaching this goal .
The State Objective of, "Establish screening mechanisms in at least
20% of local jails and state institutions , particularly those which ident-
ify serious drug and alcohol abusing offenders" , is also achievable quite
readily by our facility. We estimate that approximately 25% of those
booked into the jail have an alcoholism problem. Our staff members who
have been trained in conducting alcohol intake interviews helps us to
readily meet this objective.
The State Objective of "Provide ongoing feedback regarding success
and failures of diagnostic recommendations so that offenders can be re-
classified" , is also achieveable at our level . One of our objectives is
to determine the ratio of those who are classified and then reclassified
due to disciplinary actions to determine the efficiency of our operation.
Again, recommendations can be made to the State concerning our process
and the level of effectiveness we achieve.
Our objective of "Utilizing various instruments to measure the effects
of services provided by In-House staff and community agencies to inmates
incarcerated in the Weld County Jail " , will also give some indication of
innovative-type programs to use within facilities such as ours. We readily
see that there is little if any services being offered in the majority of
jails within the United States, and therefore, feel that success in this
particular objective can give indications for new directions to be followed
in providing services.
The development of a "comprehensive data base on all persons booked
into and incarcerated at the Weld County Jail" will also provide us and
other interested officials, and the community, some indication of who is
a typical offender and what may be some potential means of interventions
or prevention techniques to be used before the person is arrested. To
provide any type of prevention or intervention we must know what the pop-
ulation is and where they are from. Successful achievement of this objec-
tive will provide that type of information.
-44-
We are also impacting on the person who is tied to the inmate by
family relationships , namely - the offender' s wife and children. By
helping that group of people via referrals, we may lessen to some degree
the effects of crime on innocent parties such as the family.
Our objective of involving inmates in the design and delivery of
programmatic services of course, impacts upon those very inmates whom
we are obligated to serve. By giving them a say in what the delivery
system is all about, we are providing a consumer input which is seldom
seen in other types of service delivery. That particular impact may be
totally ummeasurable in an overall sense and may therefore have to be
evaluated on a more subjective level .
Our contact with other correctional agencies throughout this State
will of course mean that we will add a small part towards the coordination
of detention facilties throughout the state. It is oftentimes seen that
many jails attempt new ways of operating their jails and fail , only to
find out that the same system had been tried in numerous other facilities
many times before. We therefore, may as a total jail system throughout
the State learn from each other, and come up with better methods of
achieving our similar goals and aims.
-45-
44. EVALUATION DESIGN
A. Project Objectives - Terminology Definition
1. "Classify on an ongoing basis an average daily population
of approximately 90-100 inmates."
By classify we mean that we will determine the most appropriate
location within the facility in which to place an individual based
on various criteria. By average daily population we mean given the
number of people at any given time in the jail on that particular day.
2. "Complete 1,200 initial intake interviews" .
The initial intake interview is a brief interview conducted by staff
members of the Classification/Intake section. The interview is done
after first arrignment when we are sure that the person will stay in
the jail and will need to be classified to a specific Pod. The
interview consists of several parts which are all looked at in con-
junction with past criminal history and any unusual behavior exhibited
since being arrested.
3. "Provide 200 referrals to community agencies providing post-
release services" .
By referral we mean in the event that our facility cannot provide a
service to an inmate, another agency will be contacted to detemine if
they can provide the needed service. Community agencies refers to any
organization within the community which porvides a service. Post-release
services refer to those services, usually of a social service nature,
needed by an inmate after he is released from a facility. Examples
of post-release services could by food stamps, assistance in locating
a job, or help in finding housing.
4. "To utilize various instruments to measure the effects of
services provided by In-House staff and community agencies to
Inmates incarcerated in the Weld County Jail" .
By "various instruments" we mean psychological testing devices
such as the FIRO-B and other recognized psychological testing devices.
It also includes instruments to measure physiological responses such
as Galvonic Skin Response machine, Electromylogram, etc.
5. "To provide pre-release planning to 130 inmates."
By "Pre-release planning" we refer to a large group of services
provided to an inmate which will help him upon re-integration into the
community. It could extend to anything from a brief counseling session
-46-
concerning where .to go for particular services up to our full blown life
skills class in which the inmate will be given basic information in an
educational setting concerning job applications, basic home/money
management, nutrition, etc.
6. "To provide community referrals, such as family counseling,
childcare, and employment assistance, to the families of 25
inmates."
Based on previous definitions this objective is readily understand-
able.
7. "To maintain a comprehensive data base on all persons booked
into and incarcerated in the Weld County Jail . "
A "Comprehensive data base" is the sum total of all demographic
and psychological data collected concerning the individual upon book-
ing and later, while he is incarcerated. A listing of all the types of
data collected would take up too much space at this point but the reader
is referred to section 44D for a complete listing of data to be collected.
8. "To develop and implement a community volunteer program" .
By a "Community volunteer Program" we refer to the use of volunteer
staff members who receive specific training necessary to work in a jail
setting. Volunteers will be drawn from all social and economic strata
of the community of Weld County.
9. "To provide counseling and preparation to those inmates who will
be transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections from the Weld
County Jail and who request such help."
By 'Counseling and preparation" we refer to a group of functions
performed by counselors which may extend from a simple explanation of what
to expect at a prison up to and including therapy to help the individual
adjust to transferral to such an institution. This type of service is
only provided to those who request it. Individuals are alerted to this
type of service via the Inmate Handbook and the Inmate Orientation Video
Tape.
10. "To establish and/or maintain contact and coordination with State
and other county correctional agencies having similar interests
in the field of classification and inmate services. "
By "contact" we refer to the variety of means of communication such
as letters, telephone calls, and face-to-face visits. By "coordination"
-47-
we refer to the function of bringing together several people or agencies
so that a common goal can be met. An example of such forms of coordin-
ation took place in our jail last year. We are currently receiving
USDA food surplus due to the extent of our Programs services, However,
we were the only jail receiving such surplus, and the Department of
Agriculture was considering cancelling this service to jails due to
lack of interest. By numerous phone calls, letters, and visits to other
jails, we were able to interest several other jails within the state
to apply for and receive the surplus. This saves our jail and others
a considerable amount of money in the process.
11. "To develope inmate involvement in the design and delivery of
services or coordinated by the Programs Unit."
By "Inmate Involvement" we refer to the actual input which consists
of comments, criticisms, and suggestions by inmates concerning the
services offered by agencies from the community working within the jail
setting.
12. "To develop security line staff involvement in the evaluation
of the services offered or coordinated by the Programs Unit."
By "Security line staff" we refer to officers below the rank of
Sergeant who are deputized and work in the Jail as security or cor-
rectional officers. By "Involvement in the evaluation. . ." we refer to
their feedback concerning the programs we offer.

B. Relationship of Project Objectives to the State and Weld county
Program Objectives.
Please refer to the two pages numbered 44B.
-48-
44 B. Relationship of Project Objectives to the State and Weld
County Program Objectives.
1 . State Objective - The objectives of this Project relate to
the State objectives in that we are evaluating existing diagnostice
and classification systemts, and that making recommendations for
improving their effiency and effectiveness. The information devel -
oped in this grant is available to be shared readily with virtually
every other major jail within the state.
2. Weld County Objective - Weld County Project, though not in-
volved in re-evaluation of existing classification systems, will col-
lect and categorize information on existing systems wihtin the state
and, when possible, from outside the state. The project will as part
of an ongoing concern for evaluated excellence, compare itself to
selected other classification systems throughout the state and country.
3. State Objective - Establish screening mechanisms in at least
20% of local jails and state institutions, particularly those which
identify serious drug and alcohol abusing offenders.
4. Weld County objectives - The Weld County Intake/Classification
Project has developed, in concert with the Weld Alcoholic Recovery and
Rehabilitation Center, an intake screening process to identify persons
with alcohol related problems. In cooperation with the Weld Community
Mental Health Center (New Horizons Drug Abuse Program) we have also
developed a screening process to identify persons desiring help with
drug abuse problems. Those identified via the screening process as
having and alcohol or drug abuse problem are referred to either of the
aforementioned programs, to Alcoholics Anonymous, or to one of several
drug abuse centers located in surrounding counties.
5. State Objective - Provide ongoing feedback regarding succes-
ses and failures of diagnostic recommendations so that offenders can
be reclassified.
6. Weld County Objectives - The Weld County Intake/Classification
Project has among it's objectives and evaluation measures several key
areas by which effectiveness can be measured. The system is one which
constantly evaluates itself so that improvements can be made when
problems are identified. In response to various feedback mechanisms
from staff and inmates, and by daily review of classifications, inmate
-49-
status can be changed daily if needed in line with existing standards
and Federal Law. Reclassifications will also be made if deemed nec-
essary to disciplinary action. In Sum, all appropriate standards
and laws concerning "due Process" are followed.
-50-
C. Evaluation Measures
In presenting this information, we will refer to "performance
measures" and "Impact" measures. Performance measures will be num-
bered to correlate with our project objectives. Therefore, perform-
ance measure number one relates to the project objective number one
of "Classify on an ongoing basis an average daily population of
approximately 90 to 100 inmates." This is being done for the sake of
brevity and to avoid repeating objectives again.

from the Weld County Jail by these agencies?
4. - What measures were used to indicate the presence or absence
of Change?
- What changes were identified as being statistacally signifi-
cant in any given group providing treatment services?

44 D DATA NEEDS
1. DATA REQUIREMENTS:
Since the beginninc of this project, the need for baseline data
has been needed greatly. With the advent of the Intake Data Sheet
(Appendix # ), the means of collecting basic demographic data has
been achieved. A tremendous amount of data has been gathered via
the IDS. However, we are still awaiting the use of the Weld County
Computer in order to store the data and be able to analyse it. The
SPSS software program will be ordered in August, 1979. We currently
have approximately 1200 IDS forms completed and are ready for tabu-
lations. We expect tabulation to be completed and updated by October
1979. As a baseline, we are using the VERA data collected on 6/25
1977. Baseline is as shown on the following pages.
VERA

E. Methods of Analysis
In presenting requirements under this sub-section, we will list the
objectives by number without repeating the actual objective. The fol-
lowing are the methods of analysis developed for each objective.
OBJECTIVE 1:
What is the percentage of inmates who remain more than five days?
The total number of classification interviews for a one month
period divided by the total number of inmated in the same period who
remained longer than five days. (The Counselor II is responisble for
this data analysis. )
OBJECTIVE 2:
How many initial intake interviews are completed during the project
period?
To determine the number of initial intake interviews completed each
month sum for the project year. (The counselor II us responisble for this
data collection. )
OBJECTIVE 3:
How many referrals to community agencies providing post-release
services are provided during the project year?
The sum total of referrals to post-release services by all the
counselors, divided by the number of agencies aquals the average number
of referrals to each agency. (The Counselor II is responsible for this
•
data collection. )
OBJECTIVE 4:
How will the effects of services provided by In-House staff and
community agencies to inmates incarcerated in the Weld County Jail
be evaluated?
The post-test scores of various measures (test choice to be final-
ized prior to the start of the evaluation) will be compared to the pre-
test scores in oreder to determine if there is a significant difference.
The statistical method will be an anyalysis of variance. The qualitative
factors include the results of EMG, GSR, skin temperature, blood pressure,
pulse rate, and possibly the following psychological tests: 16 PF, Rokeach
Dogmatism Scale, the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Scale, and the FIRO-B.
(The supervisor of the Classification unit in conjunction with the rest
of the staff will be responsible for the analysis of this objective. )
-66-
OBJECTIVE 5:
How many pre-release planning sessions were performed during the
project year?
To determine the sum total of pre-release planning sessions to dif-
ferent inmates provided by all the counselors during the project year.
(The Counselor II will be responsible for this data collection. )
OBJECTIVE 6:
How many community referrals as stated were made to the families of
inmates?
Determine the total number of referrals supplied to the families
of inmates by all staff members. (The Secretary IV will be responsible
for data collections. )
OBJECTIVE 7:
On how many persons booked into the Weld County Jail was compre-
hensive data collected?
Divide the total number of initial data sheet forms collected by
the total number of persons booked. (This data will be compiled by the
Secretary IV. )
OBJECTIVE 9:
How many inmates who requested such help, received counseling in
preparation prior to their transfer to the Colorado Department of
Corrections?
Divide the number of inmates who received counseling in preparation
by the number of inmates who requested it equals the percentage of
accomplishment of this objective. (This data will be collected by the
Counselor I . )
OBJECTIVE 10:
To what extent has communication improved over the previous time
periods within the grant year?
Using the first month as the data base, divide each suceeding month' s
contacts into the data base month do determine the percentage of increase.
(The Counselor II will be responisble for calculating the data. )
OBJECTIVE 11:
To what extent were the inmates involved in designing and delivering
the services offered or coordinated by the Programs unit?
By using the first month as the data base, based on the survey of
-67-
data - divide each succeeding month into the data base month resulting
in the percentage of increase. (The information will be analyzed and
compiled by the Counselors I and II . )
OBJECTIVE 12:
To what extent was the line staff involved in the evaluation of the
services offered or coordinated by the Programs units?
By using the security staff questionaire, develop a data base on the
first quarter. Each succeeding quarter will be compared to the data base
by dividing the familiarity and subjective evaluation of the staff results
into the data base giving a percentage of familiarity and subjective
approval . The questionaire will be composed of a Likert Scale. (The
Counselor II will be responsible for data reporting. )
The SPSS Program will be used to analyze the data collected by the
project. Standard analysis methods will be used with this program as is
recommended by the Criminal Justice Liason person within the Data
Processing Center of Weld County.

45. EVALUATION OF PAST PROGRESS FOR CONTINUATION APPLICATIONS
The review of this continuation grant will see that over the year we
have realized that the 15 objectives as outlined in the first year grant
needed some modification in order for the project to be more effective
and have a greater chance of success. In presenting an evaluation of our
past acitivites, I will refer to, and quote each objective for ease of
evaluation.
1. "Establish the Weld County Classification/Intake project. "
Although we now have all staff on line, it was not until early April
of 1979, that every staff member was hired. We initially hired Linda
Plasters , the Counselor I , who was at that time working as a Master Control
operator with the Security unite, in October of 1979. Linda did an out-
standing job of helping to start the project, but obviously could not
carry the full load of what was to be a four person section. In January
of 1979, Maria Ketterling, the secretary for the unit was hired. She
obviously was able to help Linda to some degree, but again neither of
the two people could complete all the necessary work. They were able,
however, to establish some basic procedures for the start-up of the section.
We then went through a phase of great difficulty in hiring qualified
applicants for the remaining positions of Supervisor and Counselor II . It
necessitated the County Personnel Office advertising for a period of
several months (and three times) before qualified applicants were availa-
ble for interviewing and processing.
This needless to say, placed the project on a late-start basis and
we did not actually start with a full staff until six months into the
project. Training that was hoped to be offered to all staff members was
only received by Linda Plasters due to problems which caused the dis-
continuation of our excellent and extensive training academy. This
therefor necessitated on-the-job training for all staff members in the
project which of course is a time consuming and not too effective means of
training. However, miracles have occurred, and the project is on firm
ground at this point. We now have a workable classification system and
excellent referral process established. Counselors in the section are
performing services and constantly thing of ways to improve what we are
currently doing. Most equipment and supplies have been purchased for the
first year with the exception of the SPSS soft wear package. That parti-
-69-
cular package is expected to be received sometime in mid-August or early
September of 1979.
OBJECTIVE 2:
"Classify on an ongoing basis an average daily inmate population of
75."
As was seen by our chart on average daily population, this goal has
been readily met. Our main problem at this point however, is the increase
in the average daily population. This has required some operational
changes of a minor nature. For instance, we now have one counselor now
working on Saturdays , and will soon have another counselor working on
Sundays , thereby giving full seven days a week coverage. The objective
is being met 100% in that all inmates that are booked into the jail and
stay longer than 3 to 5 days are classified into a permanent housing pod.
OBJECTIVE 3:
"Complete 1,200 initial intake screening interviews."
Although it is unlikely that we will complete 1,200 interviews this
year, I believe our explanations given under Objective one offer some
clarity as to why this objective will not be met. However, it is rele-
vant to examine the data concerning what level of objective achievement
we are meeting. During the first quarter (when we only had one individ-
ual ) we were achieving 27% of the required number of interviews. During
the second quarter, this percentage rose to 53%, and during the third
quarter we were averaging 76% completion of the objective. With all staff
now trained and now able to complete the necessary interviews, achieve-
ment of our objective is readily available. Our staff is becoming more
proficient each and every day in completing the interviews in a shorter
period of time. We therefore feel that reaching this objective for the
second year is well within our means.
OBJECTIVE 4:
"Provide 120 referrals to agencies other than probation, Public
Defenders and State Hospital ."
This objective was readily obtainable by the Unit during the first
year of operation. In fact, we greatly underestimated our ability to make
referrals . During the first year of this grant, we made a total of 314
referrals to other agencies within the area. With the addition of In-House
referrals, and referrals to Work Release, our total number of referrals
-70-
rose to 590 for the year. With some change in definition of referrals to
exclude services offered totally within the jail , we still will be able
to reach our new objective of 200 referrals for those agencies providing
exclusively post-release services. In other words, referrals will only
count in this category for those agencies who continue services or pro-
vide initial services after the inmate has been released from the jail .
OBJECTIVE 5:
"Provide pre-release planning to 100 inmates."
This has been one of our most difficult objectives to meet and we
have been quite perplexed as to how we can reach it. To date we have
completed only a total of 6 pre-release planning sessions out of the
required 100. There are several reasons for this particular problem.
In the Work Release Section where most of the pre-release planning occurs,
records have not been kept sufficiently by category as to how much plan-
ning has been going on. tie all know that each inmate that goes into the
Work Release Program (with an average daily population of 14 inmates) ,
receives an extensive deal of pre-release planning. However, we have
locked ourselves into four categories or types of planning which were not
being used by the Work Release Section. We also felt that planning done
in the Work Release Section, although very important, did not really add-
ress the problem sufficiently due to the small population that it works
with, that is , only those 14 inmates in the Work Release Program. We
have therefore comeup with the following plan to address this problem
in the future, and feel that it is workable, in that we intend to increase
the number of pre-release planning that we do to 100 inmates to 130 inmates.
This particular program will start as of July 24, 1979, and will consist
fo a structuralized program offered by our In-House Counselor in conjunc-
tion with Public Health Nurses from the Weld County Health Department and
the Counselor I and Secretary from the Classification/Intake Section. This
unit of training is called Life Skills Training. The Life Skills Program
will deal with such issues as presented by the Health Department on Human
Sexuality, Stress Reduction, Nutrition, Exercise and Alcohol Abuse Edu-
cation. We have also ordered and are expecting delivery any day now of
the Coordinated Community Offender Program. This program presents a
structuralized series of lessons on such issues as money management, the
world of work, assessment of skills, and other issues which are important
-71-
to a person coming out of the jail setting. All this pre-release plan-
ning will be handled in group settings , and therefore it is possible
that we may reach objective achievement before the end of this grant
period.
OBJECTIVE 6:
"Provide community referrals to families of 50 inmates. "
Achievement of this objective is moving along at a good pace and we
expect complete fulfillment of this objective. As of June 20, 1979, we
have provided referral services to families of 34 inmates and expect that
we will reach 16 more within the year.
OBJECTIVE 7:
"Develop a comprehensive data base on all persons incarcerated."
This objective has been partially fulfilled to date. Since April ,
1979, we have been completing 100% of the Initial Data Sheets on all
persons booked into the Weld County Jail . As is shown in this form lo-
cated in Appendix # 1 , we are collecting a tremendous amount of demo-
graphic data on all people arrested and booked into the jail . We have
also collected a considerable amount of data on people who stay here
longer, via the various assessment forms and psychological testing devices
currently in use. However, we have experienced on problem concerning
this data. Our computer terminal for the jail has not been operational
for several months. The Jail management package is currently not on line
due to some difficulties experienced between our department liaison person
and the Weld County Data Processing Center. We have been assured by both
parties however, that when the SPSS package is received, we will immedi-
ately be placed on line and have the capacity to store and analyze all
the data collected during the previous year. It is possible that this
data analysis of our population may be available in time for inclusion
in the Close-out Quarterly Report for 1979. We have accumulated some
data concerning the general trends of population which has been presented
in the various charts in discussions contained in Sections 41 and 43.
The reviewer is referenced to those various Sections for information on
average daily population, booking data, and other general population
characteristics.
OBJECTIVE 8:
"Provide counseling in preparation for 25 inmates who will be trans-
-72-
ferred to a State Correctional Institution from the Weld County Jail . "
Success on this objective is quite hard to achieve as we have it pre-
sently set up. To date (July 20) , we have provided services to 12 inmates.
There are several factors to consider when viewing this data: First, our
Fugitive Transportation Section, which is responsible for transporting
prisoners to the various prisons within the State is extremely efficient.
We have found that inmates are usually transferred to the prison within
three days after sentencing. This of course puts somewhat of a strain on
us, in that our collection of data is based on providing the service after
sentencing but before the inmate is transferred to the prison. Although
no supportive data is available, we know that many inmates that eventually
go to prison do receive counseling and other types of preparation during
their pre-sentence stay within the facility. We will address this prob-
lem during the final quarter of the grant by structuralizing our service
delivery to the inmates. Secondly, we have changed the objective for
next year by not attaching a numerical value to how many inmates are of-
fered assistance or helped. Additionally, statistics provided by the
Department of Corrections show that we are only sending approximately
45 inmates to the Department of Corrections each year. Some of these
individuals spend no presentence time in our jail at all due to their
better bonding potential , and therefore it may be impossible to reach a
number of even 25 inmates. Better case management will also help elimi-
nate this problem in the future. •
OBJECTIVE 9:
"Establish liaison with State Correctional agencies."
This objective, one of which numerical values are not readily attach-
able, has , never-the-less, been achieved with excellent success. This
Project Director has been intensely involved with the State organized
Jail Trainers Program -- a program which will provide State-wide stand-
ardized training to all jailers. Secondly, we have also established con-
tact with the Community Based Agencies Program under the Department of
Corrections in hopes of receiving funding to start a community corrections
program within Weld County. As recently as July 19, 1979, this Project
Director attended a meeting with several State officials, local probation,
the District Attorney, the Public Defender, several District Judges , and
a County Commissioner concerning the possibility of establishing such a
program.
-73-
Earlier this year, this Project Director also attended
training offered by the Colorado State Prison in Canyon City,
Colorado, on Crisis Management. We have also shared a consider-
able amount of information with various jails and the prisons
concerning our operational procedures and methods. In sum,
I feel that we have established a firm liaison with many of
the Correctional agencies throughout the State, including
the State Prison System.
OBJECTIVE 10:
"Improved coordination with local Criminal Justice and
Public Welfare agencies".
We have attempted to show numerically on our third
quarterly report how this contact has been either increasing
or decreasing. This data presented on Chart #7 of the third
report which I will summarize. From the months of April ,
May and June, we had eleven referrals made to the Public
Defenders Office, two to the Private Attorneys, eighteen to
the Probation Department, six to the District Attorney, and
five to Social Services, and one to others. These forty-
three referrals were not counted under other categories.
Additionally, we have, with the assistance of the Probation
Services Office in Greeley, made three referrals to the
Larimer County Community Corrections Program. This could
of •only been accomplished through good solid liaison and
cooperation on both agencies part.
Additionally, with the cooperation of the Public
Defender and District Attorney' s Office, we have made several
referrals to POST House, a drug treatment facility located
in Longmont, Colorado. Again, good cooperation has allowed
us to make referrals such as these. It is interesting to
note that there were few if any referrals to drug treatment
centers made prior to the Classification/Intake Section
coming into being. We still , however need to work more close-
ly with local Public Welfare agencies, particularly the
Human Resources Development agency, located in Greeley.
-74-
This agency has expressed an interest in providing services to
inmates, but the harsh reality is that no inmates have been
helped by this agency to date. It is our impressions that
this agency does not want to work with these people until
they are out of jail , and therefore referrals to them will be
made strictly on a post-release basis. The agency has helped
us in the past in securing CETA employees over the past year
and we foresee that further CETA employees may be available
to the Jail Division in the future.
OBJECTIVE 11:
"Develop material both qualitative and quanitative on
the effect of other agencies on the referral process
of the Weld County Jail ".
This objective has been rather difficult for us to achi-
eve due to the unclarity of th way it is written. The pre-
vious Project Director left before explaining this particular
objective. However, as we understand it, the objective asks
us to develop qualitative and quantitative information on
how our referral process is effected by other agencies in the
community. Our best answer is the level of involvement in our
jail by other agencies. A review of our letters of support
shows that many agencies are happy about our services and how
we help them provide treament or other social services to the
inmate population. The various groups coming into Jail such
as Mental Healths' New Horizon Program, Aims College GED
Program, the Greeley Christian Church religious services and
counseling program, the Alcohol Rehabilitation/Recovery Center,
Alcholics Anonymous, and the County Health Department, all
show that agencies are willing and able to come into the Jail
to serve our inmate population. The 147 referrals made to
these in-house programs during our first year gives a good
indication of the level of involvemnt between agencies in the
community and the Weld County Jail . Qualitatively, there are
other factors to be considered:
-75-
1. This Project Director is a member of the Advisory Board
for the Alcoholic Rehabilitation and Recovery Center. This of
course gives good contact on a regular basis with that agency.
2. Dick Wing, the Supervisor of the Section, works quite
closely with Probation Services in providing out-patient groups
on his own time. This of course means that a personal contact
with one of their staff members is continually maintained.
3. Our contract with Community Mental Health brings in a
Consultant twice a month to help us work with our client popula-
tion in therapuetic relationships. This help from Mental Health
is also strengthened by contacts with Dan Dailey, Director of the
New Horizons drug abuse program who spends a considerable amount
of time pre and post group with our staff members. In sum, we
feel that this objective, although not clearly written, has been
met both quantitatively and qualitatively.
OBJECTIVE 12:
"Develop a data base to substantiate the use of referrals by
a community program".
This objective is likewise probably not needed, as it is
felt that the objectives 4 and 6 cover the referral process. We
have as previously mentioned, changed some of the referral objectives
to better indicate the type and degree of service delivery. However,
to reiterate, during the year from October 1978 until June 1979 we
have completed a total of 590 referrals to community agencies
around the state.
OBJECTIVE 13:
"Isolate behavioral problems within certain pods of the Weld
County Jail".
This objective has been met, due almost entirely through the
efforts of the Classification/Intake Section. We have utilized
the classification system to place those inmates who are behavioral
problems within certain areas of the jail to better manage their
behavior and to isolate them from more amenable inmates. The pod
is which behavioral problems appear to be most prevalent is C Pod.
-76-
Although this is classified as a medium security pod, it is felt
that due to the physical location of the pod and the amount of
instability in the pod due to transfers, more behavioral problems
occur than in any other pod. We believe that approximately 50%
of all behavioral problems (such as those requiring disciplinary
action) take place in C Pod; with 25% taking place in B Pod
(minimum security Intake Pod) , and 15% of problems occur in E Pod,
the Work Release Pod. The remaining 10% of behavioral problems
are split evenly between D, A, F and G Pods. It is interesting
to note that in G Pod, our Observation Pod, where severe behavioral
problem inmates are maintained, the level of disruption is quite
low. This is possibly attributable to the fact that a security
officer is present 24 hours a day in the control room which
extends physically into the pod itself. F Pod has a low instance
of behavioral problems, due to it being a Trusty Pod. These inmates
are usually more amenable because they are out of the pod working,
and thereby building up less tension. A Pod, our Female Pod, has
very few inmates, and therefore the incidence of behavioral problems
is quite low. We did go through a phase of having a large number
of problems out of this pod, due to almost exclusively, one woman
who has since clamed down considerably. D Pod, our largest and
minimum security pod has usually functioned quite successfully
with little disruption. This pod has an air access area which does
aalleviate some of the tensions which build up in the jail . The
inmates also have a larger floor space in which to move about, and
therefore problems seem to be at a minimum in this particular pod.
Additionally, our disciplinary procedures have been functioning
more successfully, and those individuals who do cause problems are
disciplined within 72 hours of occurrence. This means that if an
individual does commit some violation which could necessitate his
being moved to another pod, this can take place rather readily
with all due respect given the various laws and standards concern-
ing disciplinary procedures.
-77-
OBJECTIVE 14:
"Develop inmate involvement in the Classification/referral
project" .
This objective was met during the first year in several manners.
Our first and most used manner is the Inamte Request/Complaint Form,
Appendix 10. A form which allows the inmate a means of requesting
or complaining about particular aspects of jail life. The form is
quite useful , andhas instructions printed in both English and
Spanish. Via this form, an inmate can request a classifcation move,
speak to a counselor, or to make a complaint about his classification.
Secondly, inmates once past their initial arraignment are interviewed
by the Classification Team and therefore make their particular needs
or wants known at that time. We are particularly careful to ask
about other inmates in the jail who may be a threat to the particu-
lar inmate being interviewed. This is necessary due to the somewhat
extensive family feuds which take place in Greeley. We are very
careful not to place feuding family members in the same pod, and
thus avoid potential violence.
OBJECTIVE 15:
"Develop security staff involvement in the Classification/
Referral project".
This qualitative objective has been met on several levels. We
have sent the Counselor I as well as one of the Security Sergeants
to the National Institute of Corrections Workshop in November 1978.
All policy and procedures are distributed to Watch Commanders and
Lieutenants in the facility before institution of the procedure
to make sure that we are all working together towards the same end.
We also have a Classification Team Meeting which includes members
of the Security and Medical Staff. This involvement therefore allows
everyone in the Jail to have a say to some degree. Our other measure
of including the Security staff is the use of the Security Observation
Form (See Appendix 4) . This form is used extensively to allow
officers to objectively rate their observation concerning inmate
behavior.
-78-
In summary, I feel that given the late start of this project
(six months) , we have done an outstanding job in establishing the
project and making it operational . The community support we have
received has been surprising and well received. Although not
toatally measurable, but as an example of our progress, we recently
had a visit from Assistant Jail Administrator for the Montgomery
County Jail in Maryland. Herb Hunter was sent to our Jail by NIC
to offer some on-sight consultation concerning our various programs
and operations. At the completion of this two days, in our wind-
up discussions, Herb expressed that he had probably learned more
from us than we had learned from him. He felt that we were doing
an excellent job, especially considering that the entire jail
staff for the most part, ahs only been functioning as a team since
January 1978.
This type of feedback, as well as the non-measurable but
bisible good feelings we all have about the project and our Jail
as a whole, lead us to believe that we have an outstanding
Classification/Intake Program which is part of an equally well
run jail . Our staff is highly motivated and anxious to learn
more about an admittedly vague and not too well explored area -
Classification/Intake. Given the freedom that has developed over
the past year since the coming of our new Sheriff, and the excellent
support that has also developed, I feel confident that our project
will continue to provide outstanding leadership in the area of '
Classification and Intake.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
This letter is in reference to Linda Plasters, .whom I have known
for nearly two years . . . as a friend , and as her supervisor. It
has been a privilege to be associated with her.
Linda began work at the Alcohol Recovery Center on 10-17-74, as
a part-time counselor. She advanced to a senior counselor position
and has always been a definite asset to the program.
Linda is a highly motivated young woman, and attacks problems
programs with energy, honesty, and reality. She has amassed a fine
ability to discover community resources and utilize them in appro-
priate ways. She works without excessive supervision or direction . . .
and is willing to do research to handle situations of which she is
unsure.
Linda is able to handle many types of work . . . counseling,
office organization, record keeping, brochure development, public
speaking, and is exceptionally experienced in public relations. She
has a fine manner in working with other people, including clients,
staff, etc. She is friendly and outgoing . . . yet unafraid to state
an opinion in a most constructive way.
Linda's resignation will be a definite loss for the program, '
and I would recommend Linda highly for any job involving leadership
abilities, organizational work, and interaction with the public.
Sincerely, n /l

Dear Mr. Mannweiler,
Over the past year I have greatly appreciated the assistance that I have
received by the people in the Classification-In-Take office. They have been
very good to give me referrals and have been very cooperative in many ways.
I very much hope that this program can continue in the future, and would
hope that the Grant making it possible would be renewed.
Please convey my thanks and best wishes for continued success to the persons
who work in this office.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Mr. Mannweiler:
The Classification/Intake unit has been very helpful and supportive of the
GED program. The referrals have been vital in acquiring students.
Classification has enhanced the program by screening inmates and selecting
those who are interested in furthering their education. Without the aid
of the Classification unit, the success of the GED program would surely be
limited.

Dear Mr . Manweiler :
The Public Defender ' s office appreciates and supports
the classification-intake personnel of the Weld County Jail
Staff . We believe that they perform a very necessary function
in separating people according to violent propensities and
according to the personal needs of those people in custody .
Without such a service , we feel that we would have many more
incidents of violence and a great deal less harmony than we
now have among those in prisoned at the jail . We feel that
Cody , Dick , and Linda do an admirable job and hope that they
will be able to continue with this important work .
Sincerely ,elettaa

Re: Classification Intake Section
Dear Tom:
This letter is being written to express my appreciation for the
work being done by you and your colleagues at the Weld County Jail. I
have been increasingly impressed with the professional quality demon-
strated by your staff, as well as the degree of committment they seem to
communicate both to inmates and to those of us who are observing your
work.
I am especially pleased with the growing linkage between the services
of your staff and the Probation Department. I look forward to the
continuing development of this bond in the hope that it will more effect-
ively serve those people with whom we are professionally involved.

support for your classification and intake program and urge
that it be continued.
The Post House staff has worked closely with your staff for
the past few months . They have referred appropriate clients
to us for evaluation and treatment . My impression of your
staff is that they are genuinely concerned about finding
appropriate treatment for drug clients and are exceptionally
competent in assessing their problems and needs . I believe
your program serves a vital need in Weld County and strongly
recommend that it be continued.
I would be willing to appear in person to speak in support
of the program if that would be helpful . Please let me know
if I an be of further� assistance .
