Page 2 of 14
see each other at scheduled CCAB meetings.
C: Summary - Briefly summarize the key points of your Community Corrections Plan:
(all fields permit carriage returns)
1. What programs, practices and policies contribute to a reduction of (or maintenance of low) prison commitment
rates: Programs specifically designed to reduce or maintain our low PCR (both overall and in the straddle cell
range) are the Thinking Matters Cognitive Program (jail and community), jail reentry, Step Forward including
targeted group interventions of a Youthful Offender group and Mental Health & Substance abuse
assessments, OUIL Ill specific case management, pretrial services, pretrial supervision (including electronic
monitoring), Career Pathways, Domestic Violence and our residential substance abuse placement program.
These programs along with their corresponding intake units identify and target straddle cell offenders
(offense group 2) and probation violators for programming. All of these programs utilize EBP and target
criminogenic risks / needs which reduce the liklihood that offenders will return to antisocial behaviors or
illegal activities.
a. How do they contribute to reduced/maintained PCRs? The Thinking Matters, OUIL III case
management, Step Forward including targeted group interventions of a youthful offender group and
mental health/ substance abuse assessments, jail reentry, Career Pathways, domestic violence and
the Probaiton Residential Centers target straddle cell offenders thereby reducing the likelihood that
they will be sent to prison. All programs address criminogenic needs as identified through a
standardized risk! needs assessment tool. Addressing criminogenic needs has been shown to reduce
recidivism rates by as much as 30%. This significantly reduces the chance that the offender will return
to criminal behavior in the future thereby reducing the number of violations, both new arrest and
technical, and keeping the PCR low in those categories. The Pretrial Services and Pretrial Supervision
programs help to recduce / maintain the PCR as research shows that defendants detained for their
entire pretrial period are over four times more likely to be sentenced to jail and over three times
more likely to be sentenced to prison. Sentences for those remaining in custody are also significantly
longer — nearly three times as long for defendants sentenced to jail and more than twice as long for
those sentenced to prison. By identifying low and moderate risk defendants for release or pretrial
supervision the prison commitment rate can be affected.
. Explain what data/measures show your PA511 funded programs have contributed to reductions in your
PCR: The OMNI PCR rates for the various SGL categories will be the main indicators of reductions to
the PCRs. Oakland's PCR of 19% is below the statewide average which is 20.6%. The straddle cell
rate of 25% is well below the 30.4% statewide average which is a good indicator that our programs are
targeting the right populations / offenders. The number of technical and new arrest probation
violators will also be used as an indicator to determine if less PVs are being sent to prison.
. What programs, practices and policies contribute to improved recidivism as defined by the State Corrections
Board? The Thinking Matters Cognitive Program (jail and community), Step Forward including targeted
interventions contained within the program such as the youthful offenders group, mental health/ substance
abuse assessments, OUIL III case managment, pretrial services, pretrial supervison, jail reentry, Career
Pathways, Domestic Violence, and our residential substance abuse centers are all programs which target
criminogenic needs through the COMPAS risk / needs assessment. Addressing criminogenic needs has been
shown to reduce recidivism rates by as much as 30%. Addressing the criminogenic needs through a structured
supervision plan reduces the chance that the offender will return to criminal behavior in the future thereby
reducing the number of violations, both new arrest and technical, and keeping the PCR low in those
categories.
a. How do they contribute to improved recidivism? The programs contibute to reduced recidivism by
targeting criminogenic needs. Addressing criminogenic needs has been shown to reduce recidivism
rates by as much as 30%. Addressing the criminogenic needs through a structured supervision plan
Page 3 of 14
reduces the chance that the offender will return to criminal behavior in the future thereby reducing
the number of violations, both new arrest and technical, and keeping the PCR low in those categories.
The Pretrial Services and pretrial supervision programs improve recidivism as research shows that the
longer a low-risk defendant is detained before trial, the more likely he is to commit a new crime
within two years of case disposition. Low risk defendants held for 8-14 days are 51% more likely to
recidivate than defendants who are detained less than 24 hours. Identifying and releasing low risk
defendants through pretrial services does improve recidivism.
b. Explain what data/measures show your PA511 funded programs have contributed to improvements in
local recidivism: The data measures set forth by the State Board including probation violators who
return to prison on either a new arrest or a technical vioaltion will be the main indicators. However,
Oakland County will also be capturing retuns to jail for technical and new arrest violators. This will be
further analyzed by program so that we may determine which programs are achieving harm reduction
and which ones may need additional refining.

SECTION II: ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN
A:. INTRODUCTION .AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR STRATEGIC PLAN:
Strategic Issues, Goals, and Priorities have been established by the Office of Community Corrections in accordance with
Public Act 511 and Key Performance Indicators. CCABs will be required to establish Objectives and Strategies based
upon OMNI Felony Disposition, JPIS, CCIS and local data that will support State Goals and Priorities.
Strategic Issues are identified as Felony Dispositions, Recidivism and Local Priorities.
OCC will provide the CCABs with OMNI Felony Disposition and JPIS data. CCABs shall analyze this data along with local
CCIS data (reports run locally from Case Manager) and develop Key Objectives and supporting Strategies that will lead
toward attainment of Goals and Priorities established by the State Board and OCC, as well as local objectives and
priorities promoted in the comprehensive plan.
A thorough review of the data should include:
• Overall PCRs, rates within sentencing guideline ranges, PCRs within Group 1 and Group 2 offense categories,
status at time of offense and technical probation violation PCRs
• Reference to changes in PCRs compared to prior years
• Other changes in your CCAB/area that influence changes (new stakeholders, policies, emerging crimes, offender
characteristics, etc.)
• Review your past OCC funding proposals for ideas
Example:
For the Strategic Issue of Felony Dispositions, consider the stated Goal and Priority as outlined on the following pages
and complete an analysis of your county's prison commitment rate data provided by OCC. Establish objectives related
to prison commitment rates. For example:
1. Reduce PV commitment rate from 32% to 25%
2. Reduce the Group 2 Straddle rate to from 43% to 35%
Under each OBJECTIVE outline in bullet form those STRATEGIES (steps) to be taken, including continuing, new and
revised programs, or established and revised policies or practices, that will support the attainment of the objectives you
have specified. Identify if these are "new", "continuations," or "modifications," or for short term (this fiscal year) or long
term implementation.
Keep in mind that all of the programs for which you are requesting PA511 funding should be identified as strategies.
Additionally, policies and practices you propose (such as targeting specific populations or characteristics) are also
strategies. Strategies may apply to more than one objective and should be repeated under each objective as
appropriate.
For Example, the objective of "Reduce PV rate from 32% to 25%" may have the following strategies:
1. Initiate structured sentencing with jail followed by RS followed by community Cognitive Behavioral Treatment
program that targets probation violators. (New, FY 2014)
2. Target PVs as priorities for Residential Services. (Continuation)
The same strategies (with modifications) would be appropriate for the objective of reducing the PCR of Straddle Cell
offenders. Further OMNI data analysis may support an additional strategy of:
3. Target CJRP eligible straddle cells, especially those from Group 2 without M DOC status, for local sanctions
including

8: Felony Disposition Analysis
(NOTE: Regional CcABs should complete analysis for each county. Carriage returns are permitted in this section.)
Strategic issue: Felony Dispositions
Public Act 511 of 1988 stipulates that counties shall develop a community corrections comprehensive plan and provide
an explanation of how the county or counties' prison commitment rate will be reduced by diverting non-violent
offenders, and promote recidivism reduction while public safety is maintained. The Act is intended to encourage the
participation in community corrections programs of offenders who would likely be sentenced to imprisonment in a state
correctional facility or jail, who would not increase the risk to public safety, have not demonstrated a pattern of violent
behavior, and do not have a criminal record that indicates a pattern of violent offenses.
Goal: Reduce demand for prison resources and related budgetary requirements.
Priority: Reduce prison commitment of offenders who can be safely and effectively sanctioned and treated in the
community by following the principles of effective intervention (i.e., risk, need, responsivity).
Your analysis forms the basis for your objectives and strategies. A weak connection between data analysis, objectives
and proposed programming (strategies) may result in denial or conditional approval of your plan.
B-1: Using OMNI Felony Disposition data supplied by OCCIar FY 2015 and FY 2016:
1. Are felony dispositions increasing, decreasing, or stable? Decreasing
2. Describe changes within SGL categories. Report rates with detailed explanation: The total felony dispositions
decreased by 347 or 6.7%. The number of offenders within the Intermediate, straddle and presumptive
categories all decreased. Less offenders in each category coupled with fewer being sent to prison resulted in a
Page 6 of 14
2% reduction of the overall prison commitment rate from 21% to 19%. Oakland County's PCRs is lower
t
h
a
n
the statewide average in the intermediate, straddle and the presumptive categories. The SGL N/A cate
g
o
r
y
still remains problematic. In this category there was an increase in the number of offenders (220) and an
increase in the PCR (from 23.9% to 26%). This category is largely comprised of PVs (59%), however it is
unknown what type of offender makes up the other 41% of this category making targeting difficult at best.
3. Can you attribute any changes to strategies/programs in your comprehensive plan? We would like to believe
the strong programs we offer, in conjunction with a good working relationship with MDOC has contributed to
the reduction in PRC.
4. Describe any changes in criminal justice system stakeholders that may have contributed to changes in rates:
N/A
5. Describe any changes in felony populations that warrant a change in your plan: None
6. Provide additional analysis you feel necessary to explain your prison commitment rates: The SGL N/A
category as previously mentioned is problematic. We are trying to determine which offenders are includ
e
d
within that category (only about 60% are actually violators). Not knowing how offenders are picked to be in
this category makes it very difficult to target. It has been suggested that several of these offenders may be
charged with felony firearm which carries a mandatory 2 year sentence. If that is indeed the case, resources
would be wasted trying to target this group.
B-2: Felony Analysis Key Objectives and Strategies
NOTE:
• Objectives should be measurable and provide sufficient detail so progress can be monitored.
• Each objective should be followed by at least one strategy (step, action, policy, and program) that will help you
achieve your objective.
• Your objectives and strategies should be supported by the analysis above. If you did not provide analysis for a
PV or Group 2 population, you wouldn't develop an objective related to that population. )
• Keep in mind that all programs for which you are requesting funding are considered strategies. Be sure to
clearly identify them as strategies.

maintain the PCR at no more than 20%

B-3: Assessment
• Use OMNI data to track changes in prison commitment rates that were identified as objectives.
• Monitor and report on changes in local circumstances or offender populations/characteristics that prevent
attainment of your objectives.
* Use CCIS data to determine the utilization of your programs by your targeted populations.
What steps will you take if you find that you are not meeting your objectives or your strategies are not b

of emergency release occurred in 2016. In total 694 inmates were on the emergency release list and 630 were
actually released. A Circuit Court liaison prepares a list of eligible inmates based on information from the jail
and data warehouse. The list is sent to the Chief Circuit Court Judge for approval. Once approved, the list sent
to OCJ Booking for final release checks. If no warrants or holds are discovered the inmates are prepared for
release according to their new out dates.
. In FY 2014 how many times did the county declare an official (in writing) jail overcrowding state of emergency
(over 100% of RDC for 7 consecutive days) per Public Act 140 of 2007? None in FY16
4. Does your jail submit JP1S data? Yes
If not, please provide a rationale for not submitting JPIS data:
5 What vendor or jail management software is used to report jail utilization? Intellitech
C-1: Using JPIS data (or local data .as available) provide an analysis of local•jail utilizatiori including the average daily
populations/lengths of stay of jail populations including felon and misdemeanant utilization, sentenced and
unsentenced populations, partially sentenced .populations, boarders, and offense categories. (Regionals: use carriage
return [Enter] to separate information by jail)
1. This application uses JPIS Data
2. Are bookings up, down, or stable? Down
3. Describe changes in ADP or AvLOS for the population groups reported above: The number of jail bookings has
continued to decrease for at least the third stratight year. Bookings for FY16 stand at 14,181 as compared to
those from FY15 which were 14,717. Fewer felony arrests is reflected in the total felony dispostions as well as
the felony jail population. The felony popluation fell to 58% in FY16, 8% lower than in FY15. Unfortunatley
Page 9 of 14
the misdemeanor population has continued to grow and currently makes up 42% of the jail population. The
good news is according to JPIS data the overall unsentenced population in the jail is 15%. This is the lowest
the pretrial population has been in memory.
4. Provide additional information to explain your jail utilization here including changes in stakeholders, law
enforcement priorities, bed closures, etc.: SB 13 may impact the felony jail population, although we will just
have to wait and see. It is not known how some jugdes may react to the 30 day cap on technical violations.
Best case scenario, they will understand and respect the intent behind the legislation. Worst case scenario,
probations are revoked and offenders are sent to jail for 365 or prison.
C-2: Describe policies and practices that influence jail population:
1. Does the jail have a "bed allocation plan"? No
2. Does the county have a "jail task force" in place to address jail utilization issues? No
. How are sheriffs good time and trustee credits awarded / forfeited? Sheriffs good time is one day for every
six days served and forfeited only for major disciplinary infractions upon recommendation of the Hearing
Sergeant. Trusty good time is based on one day for every 12 days served and can be forfeited for the same
reasons as Sheriffs Good Time.
. Is the jail "closed" to certain types of offenses/offenders/warrants? Yes •
. Does the jail accept boarders from other counties? Nolf YES, what is the daily rate charged for a boarder?
N/A
. Does the jail have a county-imposed cap on local bed utilization to provide space for boarding? No If YES,
report number of boarders and the % of the RDC for all boarders.
. Does the jail accept Parole Violators on MDOC detainers? Yes
. Does the jail accept MDOC or Federal boarders under contract? No If YES, what is the daily rate charged for
MDOC and/or Federal boarders? N/A
9. What was the revenue from boarders for the previous year? N/A
10. What was the revenue from County Jail Reimbursement for the previous year? $1,688,650.00
11. Does the jail operate a work release program (offenders leave the jail to work and then return to the jail)? No
If YES, how many beds (number and % of RDC) are work release beds? N/A
How much are offenders charged to be on work release?
12. Does the jail accept weekend sentences? Yes
If YES, approximately how many weekenders book in each weekend? The Oakland County Jail does accept
weekend sentences. For year 2016, there were a total of 32 weekenders booked into the jail.
13 Provide additional analysis you feel is necessary to explain your jail utilization:
D: Recidivism Analysis
The updated Public Act 511 mandates that CCABs "Provide improved local services for individuals involved in the
criminal justice system with the goal of reducing the occurrence of repeat criminal offenses that result in a term of
incarceration or detention in jail or prison." As such, CCABs are required to address recidivism within their
comprehensive plan, with a specific emphasis on how the plan is intended to impact the local recidivism rates,
The State Board has defined recidivism as "Probation Violations, either technical or new sentence, resulting in prison,"
and has identified Probation Violators as being indicative of performance in this area
i. Male Probation Violators with a new felony conviction resulting in a prison sentence
ii. Female Probation Violators with a new felony conviction resulting in a prison sentence
iii. Male Technical Probation Violators resulting in a prison sentence
iv. Female Technical Probation Violators resulting in a prison sentence
Based on OMNI Report 3, please use the following table to report the number. of Probation Violators that resulted in a
prison disposition for each listed category. Regional CCABs should list the Probation Violation Data for each County
separately and provide a total, regional rate at the end of each row.

D-3; Recidivism Key Objectives and Strategies
Page 11 of 14
. Objective #1 is intended to impact recidivism by targeting: Probation Violators with a new sentence State
the Objective: To reduce the number of new sentence violators sentenced to prison from 138 to 128 for a 2%
reduction in this PCR to 27% or lower.
Programs in support of Objective #1:
1) Use of Step Forward and affiliated groups (cognitive behavioral therapy, dual diagnosis, anger management, etc)
for new arrest violators
2) The Youthful Offender group to target criminal thinking and attitudes of 18-25 year olds
3)The Career Pathways group to help offenders secure gainful employment
4) Use of probation residential centers as a response for new arrest violators
5) Encourage the use of Thinking Matters—jail for violators
6) Substance abuse assessment to determine the appropriate level of care and to prevent OUIL III offenders from re-
offending
2. Objective #2 is intended to impact recidivism by targeting: Technical Probation Violators State the
Objective: To reduce the number of technical violators sentenced to prison from 158 to 143 for a 2%
reduction in this PCR to 19% or lower.
Programs in support of Objective #2:
1) Use of Step Forward and affiliated groups (cognitive behavioral therapy, dual diangosis, anger management, etc
for techinal probation violators .
2) The Youthful Offender froup to target criminal thinking and attitudes of 18-25 year olds
3)The Career Pathways group to help offenders secure gainful employment
4) Use of probation residential centers for techincal probation violators
5) Mental Health/Subance Abuse assessment in response to continued substance abuse (positive tests) or relaspe
6) Thinking Matters - jail for technical violators
E: COMF'AS Crirninogenic.Needs Profile
Please list the top 3 needs scales as identified within the COMPAS Criminogenic Needs and Risk Profile provided by OCC.
Additionally, resent both the local and OCC strategies that will impact the identified needs scales:
The top 3 need scales for FY16 are the same as were identified in FY14; substance abuse, vocation / education and
non-compliance. Substance abuse is still ranked as the number one need at 50% which is significantly lower than the
61% reported in FY14. Non-compliance is now the second ranking need at 43% which is an increase from its former
31%. Vocation / education rounds out the top three with 35% which is slightly higher than the 33% of FY14. The
substance abuse and vocational / education needs are discussed in F & G below. The non-compliance need is a bit
more difficult to attack. However, the Step Forward program has been using the Briefcase Series by Mark Carey since
FY15. This training series is designed to reinforace EBP skills on the part of line staff. One of the modules is "Effective
Responses to Non-Compliant Behavior". This module deals with a variety of noncompliance issues and helps line staff
to develop techinquesin order to redirect offender behavior.
F: Vocational/Educational Initiatives
Please explain in detail what is being done locally to address the local vocational/employment needs of offenders.
Include both local and OCC funded initiatives.
In order to address the vocational / educational needs, Step Forward added an employment group called Career
Pathways last FY. This group is based on the program used by the Federal Government entitled 'Offender Workforce
Development'. The group utilizes the Holland Code Assessment tool to help the offender identify areas of strength
and interest. it follows a 7 week curriculum which touches on several areas of employment such as; answering tough
questions and interviewing skills. The group also includes a recorded mock interview for each participant.
Participants create short and long term career goals which may include educational requirements or other training. In
order to help offenders more easily find emplyment within Oakland County, we will be adding JobView software to

number of probation violators returned to prison.
3. The detention of low level pretrial defendants is a serious issue which has been linked to prison incarceration.
Often defendants are detained because they cannot afford the bail amount set, not because they are
dangerous. On a local level, we are working to change the Praxis matrix to eliminate financial bail
recommendations. I have been working with a small group of District Court judges (9) on these changes and the
best method(s) for brining them to the rest of the Bench. The C*Star database is also being updated in order to
reflect these changes. Work to the application should be complete no later than the end of July 2017. This is
the time frame we will use for going 'live with the new recommendation scheme.

5. Please explain how the Comprehensive Plan, in coordination with the above Local Strategies, will impact the
State Board Priorities, and ultimately offender success: The Comprehensive Plan coupled with the local
priorities above are working to create a culture of evidenced based programming and recidivism reduction. The
stakeholders within our criminal justice system need to be confident that the programs to which offenders are
being referred reduce recidivism. The programs offered through the comprehensive plan follow the eight
principles of effective interventions or evidenced based principles. Research indicates that when programs
follow these principles that reductions in recidivism will be achieved and offenders will be more successful.
However, it is not enough to just have the programs. There must be continual education, training, and
information about the programs distributed to the stakeholders. If the probation agents and judges are not
using, or referring to the programs then they really serve no purpose. Our local priorities are largely aimed at
information distribution and therefore will help boost referrals to the programs. More referrals to the programs
means lower prison commitment rates. Services aimed at making offenders more sucessful have been adopted
such as additional drug testing, serve safe certification and job seeking software. All of these strategies will play
a part in achieving State Boad Priorities and offender success.

Administration —
Administration is defined as those activities and related costs that have been incurred for the overall
executive and administrative functions of the local office or other expenses of a general nature that do
not relate solely to the operation of a specific program as defined/approved within the local plan. They
are costs that by their nature are administrative in support of the overall duties and functions of the
local OCC. This category must also include its allocable share of fringe benefits, costs, operation and
maintenance expenses, and if applicable, depreciation and interest costs.
NOTE: A SUPPLY has a life expectancy of less than a year (paper, toner, folders, urine testing supplies,
etc.) while EQUIPMENT has a life expectancy of more than a year (fax machine, PBT, leaf blower).

a. Name and title of CCAB manager: Barbara M. Hankey
b. Name(s) and title(s) of clerical and/or administrative support staff: Diana Carver, User
Support Specialist (50% funded), Kimberly Fanning Community Corrections Specialist I
(50% funded under adminsitration)
c. Is there a request for funding of administrative or support personnel such as IT, human
resources, etc.? NO
d. How frequently are CCAB meetings held? Once per month with the exception of the
summer months.
e.
.
Describe what is done to prepare/prepare board members for CCAB meetings and who
(manager, clerical, etc.) does what: The Manger prepares the agenda, generates any
needed reports, Or other information as necessary. The clerical staff emails a reminder
notice about a week prior to the meeting with the agenda and minutes from the
preceeding meeting. Clerical staff takes minutes at all meetings and transcribes for
approval by the manager.
f. Do your CCAB meeting agenda include the following items (please remember to forward
agenda and meeting minutes to our office):
i. Review of prison commitment rates/recent sentencing trends: Yes
ii. Jail utilization/state of crowding: Yes
ill. Program utilization in general and by targeted populations: Yes
iv. Status of contractual conditions (if applicable): Yes
v. Status of contractual objectives: Yes
vi. Correspondence from Lansing Office of Community Alternatives: Yes
vii. Expenditures and reimbursements to date: Yes
viii. What other items are typically on your meeting agenda? Typical agenda items
include: Public Comment; Approval of Minutes; Manager's Report which covers
most of the items in i-vii; Program Updates; Other Business; and Adjournment.
g. Describe how expenditure reports are processed and forwarded to OCC in Lansing: All
Page 1 of 4
All expenditures are tracked within the Oakland County financial management system.
Each expenditure requires a funding code (identifies it as being a grant), division code
(identifies it as a Community Corrections exp), a program code (tracks expenditures by
program; pretrial services for example) and line item code (the type of expenditure;
supplies, salaries, etc). Reports can be generated by fund, program or type of
expenditure. The fiscal analyst assigned to Community Corrections runs these reports
and groups the expenditures within the cooresponding grant line items. The monthly
expendlutres are transferred to the FSR which is then forwarded to the manager with
the necessary backup via email. A hard copy of the FSR follows in the mail with the
analyst's signature. The FSR is reviewed by the manager for any inconsistencies,
overages, or potential problem areas and then signed. A copy is sent via email to MOCA
for reimbursement.
h. How often does the manager meet with, visit, and evaluate contracted programs? As
needed Explain: All vendors of residential services for Oakland County are audited at
least yearly. Even though the state now holds the contracts for the felony offenders, we
still have contracts for misdemeanor offenders. We have contracts with two providers,
who perform their duties within the Community Corrections building. Therefore we
have directly contact with these providers several times per week. Our other vendors
(for electronic monitoring) are evaluated almost daily, as we are constantly reviewing
alarms, etc. for accuracy.
i. Answer the following two questions only if PA511 funds support the CCAB manager's
salary:
I. How many staff does the manager directly supervise?
ii. How much time is spent training, evaluating or disciplining staff?
j. How often does the manager meet with probation supervisors/officers? There is no set
schedule Explain: If there are issues to discuss that is done on an as needed basis.
Community Corrections is being included in trainings for new agents.
k. How often does the manager meet with the prosecutor? As needed Explain: The
prosecutor has assigned the Chief Deputy Prosecutor Paul Walton as the representative
for the CCAB meetings. While his attendance is sporadic, Prosecutor Cooper has
indicated a willingness to meet with Community Corrections whenever necessary,
I. How often does the manager meet with judges? As needed Explain: There is no set
interval although I speak with many of the judges on a fairly regular basis.
m. How often does the manager meet with the sheriff/jail staff? As needed Explain: The
jail administrator is on the CCAB, I talk with her as needed sometimes weekly,
sometimes everyday. It just depends on the issues.
n. How often does the manager meet with financial support staff? Quarterly to review
forecasts, and as needed concerning the monthly FSR Explain: As the manager, I have
full access to financial information and reports for my Division. I am able to run reports
as needed.
o. How often are CCIS data reports run and reviewed for accuracy? The reports are run,
reviewed and submitted on a monthly basis Explain: The accuracy of the reports are
also reviewed against our own database. We have developed an additional COS report
which further breaks out the 122s and COls so a differentiation can be made between
jail and community programs that fail under the same code.
Page 2 of 4
13. How much time is spent reviewing OMNI and jail data? It depends Explain: During
grant application, mid year and end year, I may spend a significant amount of time
analyizing data. During other times of the year I may just look at the PCR or
percentages. This information is reviewed on a regular basis as it helps us to gauge how
we are doing, to identify areas that might need improvement and /or to track
contractual conditions.
q. How much time is estimated to be spent developing the plan and application? Up to 40
hours Describe when and how the plan is developed: The plan and application is
developed by the manager and presented to the CCAB for approval. It involves
reviewing the midyear numbers to estimate projections for the coming year. Reviewing
salary forecasts and expenditure information for budget, and reviewing objectives from
the previous year to determine where changes might be needed. The planning for the
grant application and developing of the plan really occurs all year long. Throughout the
year areas of concern or potential new program areas are discussed and either worked
into the current plan through a budget amendment or included as a new initiative in the
next year's plan.
r. Describe the involvement of other stakeholders or subcommittees in data analysis or
plan/program development. There really is no involvement on the part of the
stakeholders in the data analysis as that is seen as the responsibility of the manager.
However the analysis is shared with the stakeholders to support plan development,
establishment of new programs or changes to existing programs. Stakeholders are
constantly polled for program ideas and /or gaps in service.
s. How are utilization and expenditures monitored? The expenditures are monitored
through the monthly FSR and back up is provided by fiscal services to the manager.
Reports that have the ability to drill down expenditures by program are also available to
the manager if needed. Utilization is reported by the respective progam Supervisors via
their monthly reports (generated from C*Star) and that is checked against the CCIS.
. What actions are taken when programs are under- or over-utilized? Actions may
include meetings with the appropriate stakeholders, appearance at staff meetings,
reminder emails, development of promotional materials, etc. Serious and repetitive
underutilization may result in the termination of a contract or closing of a program and
reassignement of monies elsewhere. Data analysis and trends are also used to
determine root causes of under! over utilization.
u. Who develops the subcontracts for CPS funded services? Oakland County uses a
standard contract. All contracts must be secured through the Purchasing Department
and are subject to REP and /or other rules. The manager develops a scope of work
(usually based on the RFP) which is included within the contract.
v. Who calculates jail bed days saved and how much time is devoted to that task? Within
the C*Star database there is a field which captures direct jail days saved for each client
per program enrollment. This is actual days saved from either a 25% time cut or from an
early release / structured sentence. This field is queried and summed by program code
to give a total jail days saved for each program. The manager calculates indirect jail
beds saved based on the number of successful terminations and ALOS . Given our
automation this task takes very little time.
w. What specific tasks are assigned to clerical support and what is the frequency and
Page 3 of 4
amount of time dedicated to those tasks? The user support specialist is paid 50% under
the grant and is responsible for the maintaining the integrity of the C*star data. She
acts as the liaison between the staff and IT, and has administrative rights to the
database. She also generates all needed reports for the Manager from C*Star,
including midyear and yearend numbers. She is responsible for CCIS data and COMPAS
issues. She produces all public education material, referral forms and templates for all
Communtiy Corrections programs. The community corrections specialist is part-time
and 50% of her time is devoted to the tracking of recidivism data on clients who have
been discharged from our programs.
If there is no clerical support, describe clerical tasks/frequency and time demands if
performed by the manager:
x. Does the county have procurement or purchasing policies for contractual services,
supplies, and/or equipment? yes Describe: Oakland County has comprehensive
procurement and purchasing policies that are available upon request or through the
county website.
. Please describe the county's policies on travel expense reimbursement (mileage, meal
allowance, etc.): The county has comprehensive travel and reimbursement policies that
are available upon request or through the county website.
z. Does your county have the facilities to host training (such as for cognitive programs or
application training)? YES How many can your facilities comfortably accommodate?
Oakland County has several different training facilities; there is a computer training lab,
and lecture space for large or small groups. Each facility has a different capacilty so the
type of training needed would dictate the space availability.
aa. Does your county have a computer lab available for computer-based training? YES
How many can your computer lab comfortably accommodate? 20 Would you be
interested in hosting training? YES

tiMit
a client is not eligible for Step Forward the court and/or Agent is notified immediately
after the intake has been completed via phone and/or in writing.
. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? Once the client has been deemed eligible for
Step Forward, they are entered into our C*Star database. It operates in a similar
fashion as COMPAS case manager, in that each enrollment reuires a program code.
Our codes mimic the CCIS codes. Therefore when a Career Pathways enrollment is
generated it will be saved as an B15 under the P& S funding. We can query the
database at any time for the number of B15s completed for that day or within a
specified time period. All required CCIS information is captured as a comma
delineated file and sent to NorthPointe.

immediate attention is required due to inadequate progress.
I. Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: As part of the
Career Pathways Group we will be offering ServeSafe certifcation to those offenders
who are interested in the food services field. The offender must first complete the
Career Pathways group and will then be eligible to study for and take the test at our
computer lab with no cost to them. This will provide some offenders with an
advantage over other job seekers, as the employer will nto have to pay for the
certification. Other certifications / licensures are being explored as well.

would need to have 3 or more prior misdemeanors or 1 or more prior felony in order to be
considered "high” risk and eligible for services /funding
Describe the program:
a. Based on what your program is intended to address within your targeted population,
what are your eligibility (including exclusionary) criteria? Include requirements for
assessments and assessment results. Eligibility will be based on the offender's
COMPAS score. The offender must score a 3 or above in Risk scales or 3 or above in a
minimum of two needs scales: criminal personality, criminal thinking, criminal
involvement, and/or cognitive behavior on the COMPAS; Probation Violators are
eligible regardless of score.
b. Assessment (not screening) is the foundation of evidence-based practices. Referrals to
treatment programs should be based upon assessed needs. Please describe your
assessment practices below:
i. Is a risk and/or need assessment (includes substance abuse or mental health
assessment) required prior to referral or admission to this program? YES,
Prior to Admission
ii. If an assessment is used, identify the tool: COMPAS
iii. Who completes the assessment? A copy of the COMPAS assessment
completed by MDOC is obtained.
iv. Does the substance abuse assessment result in a recommended level of
treatment per American Society of Addition Medicine (ASAM) criteria? NA
v. Is there a process to ensure that offenders receive the recommended level of
treatment per the assessment? NA
c. Are recommendations for the program made in the PSI or PV sentence
recommendation? Sometimes, it depends on the agent Are required assessments
completed prior to the recommendation? YES
d. How else are offenders identified and/or referred to the program? Offenders can be
sentenced into the program by the courts, reviewing the jail population for eligible
offenders may also find possible candidates that will be forwarded to the court for the
possibility of an amended sentence. Additionally offenders can make requests to
participate in the program through caseworkers working within the jail.
e. identify who is responsible for confirming eligibility and describe the process. The
eligibility is confirmed by a staff of the OCSO who works closely with the program.

r\MIL 4-Mbgla
• log i 1E1 g.
f. Describe your process for addressing referrals not meeting program target/eligibility. If
an offender is sentenced to the program by the courts on an ineligible charge the
offender is notified, and a letter is sent to the court informing the judge that the
offender is ineligible for this program. These offenders may be eligible for other non-
community corrections funded programs offered within the jail by Sheriff's Office
Program Services staff.
g. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? Information on admissions and completions are
compiled and then entered into the C*Star database. Program information is stored
under program code C01. We can query the database at any time for the number of
COls completed that day or within a specified time period. All required COS
information is captured as a comma delineated file and sent to NorthPointe.
h. Describe the program design (programs using this description form should be delivered
primarily through a group or class structure):
I. Name of curriculum (if applicable and please spell out abbreviations). Thinking
Matters
ii. is the group open or closed? Open
ill. What is the minimum/maximum number of participants per group, as identified
in the curriculum? There is a minimum of 3 and maximum of 15
iv. What is anticipated number of groups that will be conducted during the fiscal
year? There are 3 separate open ended groups being run (2 male, 1 female).
Each of these groups meet at least 6 times a week. Therefore it is anticipated
that stated that 900+ groups will be run during the fiscal year.
v. How many sessions will be completed per group? 36
vi. What is the length of each group session? 90 minutes, an additional 30
minutes is needed for transport of inmates to and from group back to their
respective cells.
vii. Identify what skills are taught in this program: The Thinking Matters curriculm
and information on being able to identify anti-social thinking patterns that
lead to repeated, illegal, negative, or destructive behaviors and to develop
new thinking patterns that establish new core attitudes and beliefs through
thinking reports and role rehearsals.
viii. Identify if/how participants transition between various phases or treatment
locations (jail/residential/community) as applicable to your program: Modules
are self contained within one week series. Offenders may enter the program
at the start of a new week and complete the modules in any order. All
offenders enrolled in the Thinking Matters program are also required to enroll
in the Jail Reentry program. This part of the program develops a discharge/
aftercare plan (see program description for Jail Reentry)
ix. Are individual sessions part of the program? YES
x. If individual sessions are part of the program and billed separately, how many
individual sessions are anticipated per participant? Individual sessions will
occur but not be billed separately.
xi. On what basis would individual sessions be used? If additional assistance is
noted within the group sessions the offender will be met with individually to
ensure completion of the module. Additional sessions can also be offered in a
Page 3 of 5
higher score is indicated on the offender COMPAS.
i. Identify the training or credentials held by your service provider qualifying him/her to
provide this service: Caseworkers have received training in the Thinking Matters
programming. Additionally they have received training in Motivational Interviewing.
j. How are delivered services and offender progress and participation documented by the
service provider? All inmates participating in the program are entered into C*star
where their enrollment and completion information is stored. The staff also
maintains an individual client folder containing class and progress notes. There are no
billing issues as Sheriff's Department staff positions are paid by the grant to deliver
this program.
lc How is offender progress/participation reported to the probation officer or referral
source? Include frequency of reporting positive and negative progress and types of
reports provided such as intake, monthly, termination, etc. The IVIDOC agent will be
notified when an offender completes the progam as it often affects the offender's out
date.
I. Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: A
prerequisite for participation in the Thinking Matters Program is approval from the
Courts. With this approval and upon completion, the offender receives a 25%
reduction off their jail sentence. The actual number of jail days saved is entered into
C*Star and can be queried at any time.
4. A program must meet at least one of the following objectives and there should be consistency
between the objectives and strategies identified in Part I of your application, your targeting and
eligibility noted above and your response here.
a. Will this this program reduce prison commitments? YES
i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how this program will impact the PCR: Inmates placed into
the program must score moderate to high risk on the COMPAS recidivism scale
or moderate to high on at least 2 of the following need scales: criminal
personality, criminal thinking, criminal involvement, and/or cognitive behavior
on the COMPAS, These are inmates that could have potentially been
sentenced to prison. The Court opted to have them serve their sentence in
the County Jail and complete the class rather than prison. The program is
cognitive behavioral in nature and is effective in addressing several of the
criminogenic factors that contribute to redicivism.
b. Is this program intended to impact recidivism? YES
i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how recidivism will be impacted: The program is cognitive
behavioral in nature, CBT has been shown to be effective in addressing several
of the criminogenic factors that contribute to redicivism. Research shows
that addressing criminogenic needs can reduce recidivism by up to 30%.
Targeting high risk, high need offenders for this program will reduce the
likelihood of reoffending either with a new crime or for a technical violation.
Page 4 of 5
Recidivism will be measured by # of inmates who successfully complete the
program but are returned to jail within a 6, 12 and 24 month period. This
measurement is possible through the criminal justice data warehouse.
. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT: At Midyear and Year end you are required to report on the
status of the following Key Performance Indicators, at a minimum:
. OCC recommends that 75% of PA511 funded program enrollees are from this program's
primary target population. This discourages net-widening and focuses on populations in
support of your objective(s).
b. Track the changes in OCRs, ADP and/or LOS based upon your program objectives per
Part I. This will reflect status toward achievement of your objective(s).
c. Track jail bed days saved if applicable to your program design.
d. Track successful and unsuccessful terminations from the program.
e. Track the successful /unsuccessful discharge from probation for program
completions/failures.
6. Develop additional performance indicators based on your program design such as newly
acquired or improved skills, tests passed, pre/post test results, etc., as you deem appropriate.
Contact your grant coordinator for assistance if necessary.

3. Describe the program:
a. Based on what your program is intended to address within your targeted population,
what are your eligibility (including exclusionary) criteria? Include requirements for
assessments and assessment results. All particpants will have been been assessed with
the COMPAS prior to being placed in the program. Offenders must have scored
probable or highly probable in the following areas on the COMPAS in order to be
enrolled in the Thinking Matters program; cognitive behavioral, criminal opportunity,
criminal personality, criminal thinking self report, negative social cognitions,
substance abuse, social environment, criminal associates, or socialization failure. All
groups will be gender specific.

placed into this group (and others) based on their COMPAS needs. Offenders must be
a participant of Step Forward, Step Forward was designed to create a comprehensive
supervision / treatment plan that addresses the offender's risks /needs. Not every
offender is ready to start with the Thinking Matters group, some may need to address
other needs first, like housing or substance abuse. Some offenders may not need to
attend the Thinking Matters group at all. Having Thinking Matters a a part of Step
Forward rather than a stand alone program, helps to ensure that the offenders are

an average of 12 weeks. This is an average as each offender will only move on
based on his or her grasp of the program concepts.
vi. What is the length of each group session? 90 minutes
vii. Identify what skills are taught in this program: Participants are taught to
identify anti-social thinking patterns that lead to repeated, illegal, negative,
or destructive behaviors and to develop new thinking patterns that establish
new core attitudes and beliefs through thinking reports and role rehearsals.
viii. Identify if/how participants transition between various phases or treatment
locations (jail/residential/community) as applicable to your program: Offenders
will be able to transition form the jail Thinking Matters program into the Step

a. Will this this program reduce prison commitments? YES
I. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how this program will impact the PCR: Moderate to high risk
offenders are often those within the straddle cell sentencing range. Referring
these offenders to Step Forward, and therefore Thinking Matters, in lieu of
prison will reduce prison commitment rates for this group as well as overall.
In addition many of the offenders coming intop Stpe Forward and enrolled in
the Thinking Matters group are probation violators. Addressing the
criminogenic behaviors that led to the violation reduce the likelihood of
repeat behavior and therefore the likelihood of a prison sentence.

SUPERVISION SERVICES —
• Supervision programs include Day Reporting, Electronic Monitoring, Intensive Supervision and
Pretrial Supervision.
• It may be proposed that Day Reporting be eliminated as a program type since service typically
delivered under DR could be funded under Case Management or intensive Supervision.
• PA511 funds can not be used to provide Electronic Monitoring Services for MDOC
probationers unless it is for pretrial supervision of a probationer with a new charge (call your
grant coordinator for exceptions).
• When developing eligibility criteria, think about what behavior or characteristic in addition to
addressing PCRs or recidivism that the program is intended to address.
• Supervision programs are not intended to simply provide access to substance abuse testing
absent other supervision activities.
• Costs associated with Substance Abuse Testing may be incurred as "supply" costs in this
program's budget if testing is part of the program design.
• OCC requires that an objective pretrial assessment be used before defendants are referred for
pretrial supervision.
ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS USING "NA" IF NOT APPLICABLE TO THIS PARTICULAR PROGRAM.
Copy the objective(s) from your felony and/or recidivism•analysis (Part I) that this program is
designed to address:
a. PCR Objectives:
i. Overall Prison Commitment Rate Objective, which states: Lower or maintain
the PCR at no more than 20%
H. Group 2 Straddle Cell Objective, which states:
b. Recidivism Objectives:
i. Probation Violator New Sentence, which states:

h
o
score 3-5 and are charged with a violent felony may be eligible.
. Describe the program: 1
a. Is an assessment or screen required to determine eligibility? Assessment
b. If an assessment is used then provide the name of the assessment tool: The Praxis risk
score is used to drive the most appropriate level of supervision. However, the judicial
officer always has the option of rejecting the recommendation or ordering a
defendant to EM who has not scored for EM according to the Praxis.
c. Based on what your program is intended to address within your targeted population,
what are your eligibility (including exclusionary) criteria? Be sure to include assessment
scores if applicable. In order to be eligible for EM the defendant must have EM
ordered as a condition of bond. Defendants who have a risk score of 6-9 or and are
charged with a non-violent felony or high severity misdemeanor OR who score 3-5 and
are charged with a violent felony are eligible.
d. Are recommendations for the program made in the PS1 or PV sentence
recommendation? NO
e. How else are offenders identified and/or referred to the program? Defendants are
referred to the program via the Bond Recommendation by the Pretrial Services Unit
and ultimately through an order by the judicial officer.
f. Identify who is responsible for confirming eligibility and describe the process? All EM
cases are handled between 1.5 case managers who are responsible for ensuring a
court order has been recieved. The case managers receive a faxed copy of the court
order. They review the court order to ensure the defendant has been ordered to EM
and for any restrictions, schedule, etc. The case managers coordinate all aspects of
the EM from scheduling hook up at the jail to daily reviewing of points, vioaltions and
alarms.
g. Describe your process for addressing referrals not meeting program target/eligibility. If
there is a judicial order requiring a defendant to receive EM services even though he
does not meet the eligibility criteria, we will still supervise the defendant pursuant to
the court order.
h. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? All supervision cases are entered into our C*Star
database. It operates in a similar fashion as case manager, in that each enrollment
requires a program code. Our codes mimic the CCIS codes. Therefore when an EM
enrollment is generated it is saved as an D08. We can query the database at any
time for the number of D08s completed for that day or within a specified time period.
All required CCIS information is captured as a comma delineated file and sent to
NorthPointe.

extreme cases of 24 hour lock down.
ii. Vendor for equipment/service: Rancillio Home Confinement, and House
• Arrest Services.
iii. Cost assessed by the vendor per unit/offender/day (clearly describe): The costs
associated with the electronic devices are mostly incurred by the defendant.
There is a line item for defedants who qualify for EM under the Praxis but can
not afford it. If the cost hinders their release then Community Corrections will
pay. If a defendnat is on a fixed income, diability or currently has no inclome
• they may qualify for community correctiosn to pay. In some case community
corrections will enter into an agreement with the defendnat oto have half the
cost. Cases are handled on a cases by case basiss. Per Diem rate ranges from
$6.00-$14.00 per day based on equipment. Costs associated with the
automated telephone reporting system are paid by Oakland County
Community Corrections, the'cost is $3.75 per month per defendant regardless
of the number of inbound reporting calls.
iv. Who does the equipment installation/retrieval? Installation/retrieval of
electronic monitoring equipment is the responsibility of the EM vendor.
v. Who sets up schedules and/or monitors compliance? Compliance is monitored
by both the vendor and Oakland County Community Corrections personnel. A
defendant's compliance with schedules, travel restrictions and equipment
issues (le. Battery charging, downloading) is continuously monitored by the
vendor. OCCCD personnel review all alarms and violation to ensure the
vendors are following established protocol.
k. What is the frequency of reporting/contact with the offender? The frequent}, of
reporting is once per week at a minimum. However due to alarms, schedules
changes, etc., the case managers may have more contact with these defendants than
once per week.
I. How is frequency of reporting/contact determined? All defendant's on any electronic
monitoring device are considered "intensive" and are therefore placed on a high level
of supervision. The frequency of contact established by our judges (as part of our
differential levels of supervision) for "intensive" supervison is once per week.
m. What happens during a typical "report" and how long is it estimated to take? A typical
"report' is a 3 minute automated telephone call that is designed to specifically review
the defendant's conditions of bond and provide notification of next appearance.
Additionally, defendants are contacted periodically by their case manager to review
specific EM requirements, violations or alarms.
n. Does the program design include collateral contacts with family, employer, school,
treatment provider, etc.? YES if employment, education, and/or treatment is ordered
Page 3 of 5
.Sl1 i1fr•.
as a condition of release, the program does include collateral contacts with these
agencies. Additionally, if victims are involved, victims are contacted.
o. Does the program assist offenders with securing identification and/or refer to additional
social or supportive services? Yes If Yes, how? The program is designed to assist the
defendant (and family members if necessary) with referrals to community agencies for
supportive services (ie Victim services, alcohol/drug support services, mental health
services).
p. Does the program monitor for new criminal activity? Yes If Yes, how?
q. This program Monitors drug/alcohol testing.
r. Explain involvement in 'p' above including the frequency/cost of testing if provided: if
drug testing is a condition of bond, the casernanagers will make referrals to a testing
program and monitor the defendant's compliance. Compliance is then reported to the
court trhough progress reports.
s. How are delivered services and offender progress and participation documented by the
service provider? A defendant's compliance with his / her reporting schedule as well
as the conditions of supervison are tracked in the C*star database. Since Community
Corrections staff provide this service there is no billing, if a defendant has no income,
is on a fixed income, or is being detained simply because he can not pay for the EM
device and this has been verified by the court or supervision Community Corrections
may pay for the device. The vendor will send an invoice to Community Corrections,
the invoice contains the defendants's name, and dates of of provided EM service.
This is checked against our database for accuracy before being approved.
t. How is offender progress/participation reported to the probation officer or referral
source? include frequency of reporting positive and negative progress and types of
reports provided such as intake, monthly, termination, etc. Prior to each court date an
updated progress report detailing the defendant's compliance with conditions of bond
is sent to the court. However in the instance of a positive drug screen, rearrest or
other egregious technical violation a request for an immediate bond revocation /
hearing is sent to the court. The court decides how to proceed from there. Progress
reports are also sent to the district court and MDOC probation agents prior to
sentencing to add to their PSI reports. All documentation is also available to them
through our C*Star database.
U. Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: The
automated system also makes outbound, court reminder telephone calls to the
defendant. Research has shown that reminding defendants of their court date is the
single most effective thing a program can do to reduce failures to appear.
4. A program must meet at least one of the following objectives and there should be consistency
between the objectives and strategies identified in Part I of your application, your'targeting and
eligibility noted above and your response here.
a. Will this this program reduce prison commitments? YES
i. if YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Overall PCR
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how this program will impact the PCR: A recent study from
Page 4 of 5
the Laura and John Arnold Foundation indicates that defendants who spend as
little as two days in pretrial detention have significantly higher rate of post-
conviction recidivism than defendants not held in custody. Individuals who
do well on supervision are less likely to receive sentences of incarceration or
may receive less severe sentences.
. Is this program intended to impact recidivism? YES
I. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Probation Violators with
a new sentence
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how recidivism will be impacted: Many of the EM options
work to reinforce behavior modification learned in treatment settings. For
instance an EM curfew will help to encourage changing a criminal lifestyle or
antisocial leisure activities. Changing a defendant's behavior patterns and
thinking are the first steps in moving them away from a criminal lifestyle into
a more socially acceptable one. The intense supervision associated with EM
does not allow most defendants the opportunity to reoffend.
5. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT:. At Midyear and Year end you are required to report on the
status of the following Key Performance Indicators, at a minimum:
- a OCC recommends that 75% of PA511funded program enrollees are from this program's ._ . _ -
primary target population. This discourages net-widening and focuses on populations in . .
support of your objective(s).
b. . Track the changes in PCFts,.ADP -and/or LOS based upon your program objectives per
Part I. This will reflect status toward achievement of your objective(s).
c. Track jail bed days saved if applicable to your program design .
d Track successful and unsuccessful terminations from the program.
e Track the successful /Unsuccessful discharge from probation for program
completions/failures. _
. Develop additional performance indicators based on your program design such as securing of
identification, completion of other monitored programs and conditions, etc., as you deem
appropriate. Contact your grant coordinator for assistance if necessary.

or who have an MDOC detainer. We will not assess defendants arrested solely for a
violation of probation or bench warrant for failing to pay fines and costs.
b. What programs (PA511 and/or locally funded) require this assessment to determine
eligibility? A pretrial assessment is not required to determine eligibility for Oakland
County's locally funded programs. However, the risk assessment does determine the
level of supervision for the pretrial supervison unit should the defendant is ordered to
supervised release. The Pretrial assessment may also help identify those defendants
that would benefit from, or are eligible for, substance abuse treatment in lieu of
detention.
c. What assessment instrument is proposed? The Praxis
d. Is the assessment completed during the presentence investigation period (prior to
sentencing)? YES
e. How are offenders identified and/or referred for an assessment? Defendants are
referred to pretrial services by virtue of being arrested. Defendants lodged at the
Oakland County Jail are identified via daily database searches. Defendants in local
police jurisdictions are identified via daily telephone inquiries to the local lockups.
Defendants may also be referred by defense counsel or directly from the bench.
f. is this service contracted to a vendor or does local community corrections staff
complete the assessment(s)? Community Corrections staff complete all pretrial risk
assessments.
g. Describe the training, certification process, or credentials of the person(s) doing the
assessment(s) which qualify him/her to do them — include dates of training/certification
and who conducted the training: Community Corrections Specialists who are
conducting pretrial assessments are trained by their Supervisor and Lead staff on
interviewing techniques, verification methods, criminal history checks, bail statutes,
and the varies standards of Pretrial Release published by multiple organizations.
(National Association of Pretrial Services Agencies, National District Attorneys
Association, American Bar Association, Federal Criminal Code Title 18. Each staff
member is a certified LEIN operator, has completed assessment training, and is a
certified Pretrial Services Professional Level One Practitioner via the National
Association of Pretrial Services Agencies (NAPSA).
h. What is the cost of the instrument itself, per use? It was developed as a public domain
tool, therefore there is no per use cost.
1. How much time is anticipated to complete one assessment (not including subsequent
development of a recommendation or plan)? Assessments on each individual
defendant vary based on multiple factors. The interview with the defendant takes
approximately 15-20 minutes to complete, the verification and criminal record checks
required to complete the assessment process may take up to an additional 30-90
minutes. Additional time may be required to enter all information into the database,
depending on the length of the criminal history, etc.
j. Is the assessment completed through an interview with the offender or would the
offender fill out a questionnaire for later scoring? Each pretrial risk assessment
includes a face to face interview with the defendant.
k. Is subsequent verification of information required prior to making a recommendation or
determining eligibility? YES all information provided by the defendant is attempted
Page 2 of 4
to be verified through a third party for accuracy. The verification of information is
required to score the Praxis correctly.
I. Is the recommendation written? YES
m. How much time is it estimated to take to put all information into a recommendation?
10-30 minutes Explain your response. This time frame has been shortened
significantly with the introduction of our automated report. In the past the staff
wrote a 2-3 page summary of all the defendant's information. Now the computer
generates most of the report, highlighting those factors that are known to be
predictive of pretrial failure. The staff now only add narrative that supports the
recommendation, notes aggravating or mitigating factors or requests an override.
n. Does a substance abuse assessment result in a recommended level of care per ASAM
criteria? Not Applicable
o. How is the information gained from the assessment used in sentencing
recommendations? Probation Agents both MDOC and local, have access to the
pretrial assessment and can review information about a defendant that is relevant to
that defendant's adjust and progress while on supervision. In some instances, a
defendant may plead guilty to a misdemeanor offense and the judicial officer will
immediately sentence him / her. The pretrial assessment provides information to the
judicial officer much like a PSI would. The pretrial assessment captures information
about the defendant that would not otherwise be available to the judicial officer. A
pretrial assessment can assist agents in their PSI process by providing historical
information about the defendant's prior convictions, SGL score, prior supervision
compliance, any violations of probation or parole, failure to appear history, substance
abuse information, treatment history, mental health concerns, employment history,
education level, and housing status. It really is a starting point for the PSI.
p. How is completion of assessment documented by the service provider? Assessments
are created electronically and saved in the Oakland County Community Corrections
web-based database, C-Star. No invoicing is required.
q. How is information about the number of completed assessments entered into Case
Manager and tracked for COS purposes? All pretrial assessments are generated
through our C*Star database. It operates in a similar fashion as the COMPAS case
manager, in that each enrollment requires a program code. Our codes mimic the CCIS
codes. Therefore when a pretrial bond report is generated, it is also saved as an F22.
We can query the database at any time for the number of F22s completed for that day
or within a specified time period. All required CCIS information is captured as a
comma delineated file and sent to NorthPointe.

S.
Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: Defendants
who are unable to post bond and are detained at the jail are eligible for our "second
look" program. Pretrial staff try to dertermine if any circumstances have changed
(reduced charges, verified address, employment) that may impact the release/
detetion decision. An amended report will be sent to the court advising of these
changes. If the person remains in custody they are referred to the jail counseling staff
for consideration / review for other jail programs.

i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Overall PCR
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each. .
II. Clearly describe how this program will impact the PCR: Research conducted by
the Laura and John Arnold Foundation shows that the longer low and

defendants who secure release within 24 hours of arrest. Accurate
identification of low and moderate risk pretrial defendants can assist in the
timely release of these defendants thereby impacting the prison commitment
rate, --,

Based on your objective(s), what is your target population?
ii. Probation Violator Technical, which states:
0 Felons iZPretrial lOther (briefly describe): Misdemeanor
who score 6-9 on the Praix risk assessment. In order to score this high defendants will almost always
have at least 1 prior felony or two or more violent convictions.
. Describe the program:
a. Is an assessment or screen required to determine eligibility? Assessment
b. If an assessment is used then provide the name of the assessment tool: The Praxis is a
Pretrial risk assessment tool built for Oakland County by Luminosity. It is based on the
Virginia model risk assessment
c. Based on what your program Is intended to address within your targeted population,
what are your eligibility (including exclusionary) criteria? Be sure to include assessment
scores if applicable. The Praxis was revised and combined into one grid. The target
poplution for supervision (scores that will genrate a recommendation of supervision)
is defendants that score 0-2 and are charged with a violent felony, defendant that
score 3-5 and are charged with high severity misdemenaor or non violent feloy, and
defendnats that score 6-9 and are charged with a misdemenaor.
d. Are recommendations for the program made in the PSI or PV sentence
recommendation? NO
e. How else are offenders identified and/or referred to the program? Defendants are
identified for the program via the Bond Recommendation made by the Pretrial
Services assessment through the Praxis. Ultimately defendants are placed on pretrial
supervision through an order by the judicial officer.
f. Identify who is responsible for confirming eligibility and describe the process? Eligiblity is confirmed through the Praxis. Overrides to the Praxis' level of supervision require a
Supervisor's approval which is handled by the Pretrial assessment staff, when the
report and recommendation is being completed. Cases that have not been scored
through the Praxis due to unavailability: weekend arraignment, housed in the clinic,
etc., are funneled to one case manger within the supervision unit who scores all the
cases. Once the level of supervision has been determined, the case is assigned to the
appropriate case manager.
g. Describe your process for addressing referrals not meeting program target/eligibility. If
a defendant is ordered to supervision but does not meet the above eligibility criteria
the defendant is simply placed on a "monitoring only" caseload. This caseload
receives court reminder phone calls but nothing else. The pretrial superviison unit
honors all court orders requiring a defendant be supervised.
h. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? All supervision cases are entered into our C*Star
database. It operates in a similar fashion as COMPAS case manager, in that each
enrollment requires a program code. Our codes mimic the CCIS codes. Therefore
when a supervision enrollment is generated it is saved as an F23. We can query the
database at any time for the number of F23s completed for that day or within a
specified time period. All required CCIS information is captured as a comma
delineated file and sent to NorthPointe.

determine in the defendant has ever been involved, or is currently involved, with any
of our programs including supervision. The investigator will then contact the
supervision unit to advise. The defendants are also asked if they have been arrest
each time they report into the system. Anyone who has been rearrested is discharged
from the program under the appropriate termination code which allows us to track
this information.
q. This program Monitors drug/alcohol testing.
r. Explain involvement in 'p' above including the frequency/cost of testing if provided: If
drug testing is a condition of bond, the casemanagers will make referrals to a testing
program and monitor the defendant's compliance. Compliance is then reported to the
court through progress reports. Frequency is determined by drug of choice but
generally involves urine testing once per week and alcohol testing twice per week. The
costs for testing, per Michigan Court Rule 6.106, the cost of drug testing is the
responsibility of the defendant.
. How are delivered services and offender progress and participation documented by the
service provider? A defendant's compliance with his / her reporting schedule as well
as all conditions of supervison are tracked in the Offender Link database. Since
Community Corrections staff provide this service there is no billing.
t. How is offender progress/participation reported to the probation officer or referral
source? Include frequency of reporting positive and negative progress and types of
reports provided such as intake, monthly, termination, etc. Prior to each court date an
updated progress report detailing the defendant's compliance with conditions of bond
is sent to the court. However in the instance of a positiove drug screen, rearrest or
other egregious technical violation an immediate bond revocation / hearing is sent to
the court. The court decides how to proceed from there. Progress reports are also
sent to the district court and MDOC probation agents prior to sentencing to add to
their PSI reports. All documentation is also available to them through our C*Star
database.
u. Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: The
automated system also makes outbound, court reminder telephone calls to the
defendant. Research has shown that reminding defendants of their court date is the
single most effective thing a program can do to enhance court appearance
4. A program must meet at least one of the following objectives and there should be consistency
between the objectives and strategies identified in Part I of your application, your targeting and
eligibility noted above and your response here.
a. Will this this program reduce prison commitments? YES
i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Overall PCR
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how this program will impact the PCR: A study from the Laura
and John Arnold Foundation indicates that defendants who spend as little as
two days in pretrial detention have significantly higher rate of post-conviction
recidivism than defendants not held in custody. individuals who do well on
supervision are less likely to receive sentences of incarceration or may receive
Page 4 of
amigitgaR Smokyas
less severe sentences.
. Is this program intended to impact recidivism? YES
i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how recidivism will be impacted: Pretrial Supervision
monitors defendants closely to ensure they adhere to the bond conditions and
appear for court appearances until they are sentenced. The conditions are
designed to mitigate the risk of reoffendeing while addressing criminogenic
needs which also leads to a reduction in recidivism. Defendants that are not
doing well under supervision may be directed for additional services or may be
recommended for a bond hearing. The hearing could result in dentention
prior to the defedant commiting a new criminal act. Pretrial supervision will
measure recidivism as a function of rearrest during the pretrial supervision
period.
. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT: At Midyear and Year end you are required to report on the
_
status of the following Key Performance Indicators, at a minimum:
a. OCC recommends that 75% of PA511funded program enrollees are from this program's
primary target population: This discourages net-widening and foCiiSehri. populations in '
support of your objective(s).
b. Track the changes in PCR.s,.ADP and/or LOS based upon your program objectives per
Part I. This will reflect status toward achievement of your objective(s).
. Track jail bed days saved it applicable to your program design.
d. Track successful and unsuccessful terminations from the program.
a. Track the successful /unsuccessful discharge from probation for program
completions/failures.
. Develop additional performance indicators based on your program design such as securing of
identification, completion of other monitored programs and conditions, etc., as you deem
appropriate. Contact your grant coordinator for assistance if necessary.

e. Identify who is responsible for confirming eligibility and describe the process. The
intake staff is responsible for confirming eligibility based upon their COMPAS scores
from the intake and assessment (or based on the COMPAS completed by probation).
Questions on eligilbilty are referred to the Supervisor for resolution.
f. Describe your process for addressing referrals not meeting program target/eligibility. If
a client is not eligible for Step Forward the court and/or agent is notified immediately
after the intake has been completed via phone and/or in writing. Additionally, the
offender is provided a list of community resources that may be able to meet their
needs on a less intensive basis.
g. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? Once the client has been deemed eligible for
Step Forward, they are entered into our C*Star database. It operates in a similar
fashion as COMPAS case manager, in that each enrollment requires a program code.
Our codes mimic the CC1S codes. Therefore when a Youthful offender enrollment is
generated it is saved as an GOO under the P& S funding. We can query the database at
any time for the number of GOOs completed for that day or within a specified time
period. All required CCIS information is captured as a comma delineated file and sent
to NorthPointe.
h. Describe the program design (programs using this description form should be delivered
primarily through a group or class structure):
i. Name of curriculum (if applicable and please spell out abbreviations).
Strategies for Self-Improvement and Change (SSC) by Wanberg and Milkman
ii. Is the group open or closed? Open
iii. What is the minimum/maximum number of participants per group, as identified
in the curriculum? There is a minimum of 3 and maximum of 15
iv. What is anticipated number of groups that will be conducted during the fiscal
year? 2.3 groups will be able to be completed at each location per year, for a
total of 4.6 groups
v. How many sessions will be completed per group? 102 sessions per year (22
sessions per group).
vi. What is the length of each group session? Each session is 2 hours in length
vii. Identify what skills are taught in this program: The SSC model focuses on
assisting offenders in developing new thinking skills that will help them to
reorganize drug related beliefs and automatic thoughts that promote criminal
conduct and substance abuse.
Ali. Identify if/how participants transition between various phases or treatment
locations (jail/residential/community) as applicable to your program: This
program is only available in the community.
ix. Are Individual sessions part of the program? NO
x. If individual sessions are part of the program and billed separately, how many
individual sessions are anticipated per participant? N/A
xi. On what basis would individual sessions be used? N/A
i. Identify the training or credentials held by your service provider qualifying him/her to
provide this service: Holy Cross Services is one of the largest private, not-for-profit
providers of children's services in Michigan. The service portfolio includes residential

campuses and group homes, charter schools, foster care homes, supervised
independent living programs, day treatment and a variety of community-based
services. They have been in business for over 60 years. They have worked with a
variety of courts and funding sources (MDOC, Pontiac Parole, Oakland County Circuit
Court, and Office of Substance Abuse Services). They have been providing CBT
treatment to parolees and other criminal justice clients since 1993. The current
facilitator, Lonie Gray, is a CADC-M (Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor) through
MCBAP certification #1-03530, expires 5-1-18. Lonie has also been trained in Stages of
Change, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma informed Services, and Toxic
Relationships.
j. How are delivered services and offender progress and participation documented by the
service provider? Progress reports are submitted after every group to the Step
Forward case manager on the client's participation.
k. How is offender progress/participation reported to the probation officer or referral
source? Include frequency of reporting positive and negative progress and types of
reports provided such as intake, monthly, termination, etc. The Step Forward case
managers report back to the probation department and/or the court monthly on the
offender's participation or lack of progress. A telephone or email contact is made if
immediate attention is required due to inadequate progress.
I. Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: Holy Cross is
reimbursed on a per group basis. There is a flat fee of $250 per group, this includes all
materials for group participants.
4. A program must meet at least one of the following objeaives and there should be consistency
between the objectives and strategies identified in Part•I of your application, your targeting and
eligibility noted above and your response here.
a. Will this this program reduce prison commitments? YES
i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how this program will impact the PCR: Individuals referred to
this group are clearly headed to prison if their criminal behavior continues.
This groups is cognitive behaviorally based and is designed to interrupt that
thinking, and help offenders develop new thinking patterns that will lead
them away from criminal behaviors.
b. Is this program intended to impact recidivism? YES
I. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how recidivism will be impacted: The program is a cognitive
behavior program. These programs have been shown to reduce recidivism by
up to 30%. Targeting high risk, high need offenders for this program will
reduce the likelihood of reoffending either with a new crime or for a technical
violation.
5. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT: At Midyear and Year end you are required to report on the
status of the following Key Performance Indicators, at a minimum:
a. OCC recommends that 75% of PA511 funded program enrollees are from this program's
Page 4 of 5
f D e Sifijpittl01

primary target population. This discourages net-widening and focuses on populations in
support of your objective(s).
b. Track the changes in PCRS, ADP and/or LOS based upon your program objectives per
Part I. This will reflect status toward achievement of your objective(s).
. Track jail bed days saved If applicable to your program design,
d. Track successful and unsuccessful terminations from the program.
e. Track the successful /Unsuccessful discharge from probation for program _ completions/failures.
. Develop additional performance indicators based on your program design such as newly
acquired or improved skills, tests passed, pre/post test results, etc., as you deem appropriate.

igrelons OPretrial DOther (briefly describe):
. Describe the program:
Page of 4
t(_4114:4
a.
,
Describe eligibility criteria, including exclusionary criteria, for an assessment: The
intake process is to determine if the offender will meet the specific Step Forward
eligibiltity criteria.
b. What programs (PA5i1 and/or locally funded) require this assessment to determine
eligibility? The Step Forward program requires an assessment to determine eligibility
into the program.
c. What assessment instrument is proposed? The COMPAS and NEEDS are used as the
assessment tools. The COMPAS is administered to all offenders referred and the
NEEDS is administered to those clients where substance abuse may be a risk / need.
The NEEDS is used to determine the proper level of care (LOC) that is required if the
offender has a substance abuse issue. Not all offenders require residential care to
start, especially if they are employed, this ensures our referral for treatment is the
appropriate intervention. The COMPAS scores are used to determine into which
services/groups the offender will be placed. Groups currently available are: Women
in Crisis Group, Dual Diagnosis Treatment, Young Male Offenders Group, Substance
Abuse Group, Domestic Violence Group (for both men and women), Anger
Management Group, Cognitive Restructuring Group (Thinking Matters), Experiential
Learning Group, Career Pathways. All groups are tied to a COMPAS need and are
considered a "task" in addressing that need.
d. Is the assessment completed during the presentence investigation period (prior to
sentencing)? NO
e. How are offenders identified and/or referred for an assessment? Defendants are
referred either as a condition of bond or offenders are referred by the Probation
Department to fulfill their probationary obligations. Referrals may come directly from
the bench or from defense counsel as well.
f. Is this service contracted to a vendor or does local community corrections staff
complete the assessment(s)? Community Corrections staff are responsible for
performing the assessments. A copy of the COMPAS bar chart is obtained from the
probation agent to determine eligibility. However, a COMPAS still needs to be
preformed in order for a supervision plan to be generated.
g. Describe the training, certification process, or credentials of the person(s) doing the
assessment(s) which qualify him/her to do them — include dates of training/certification
and who conducted the training: All staff have a minimum of a bachelor's degree in
sociology, psychology, social work or criminal justice. Staff were trained in
motivational interviewing and they'received extensive training on how to administer
the COMPAS and NEEDS.
h. What is the cost of the instrument itself, per use? There is no cost by the department
for the COMPAS. The NEEDS costs $6.00 per assessment
i. How much time is anticipated to complete one assessment (not including subsequent
development of a recommendation or plan)? The COMPAS and NEEDS each take
approximately 30-45 minutes per assessment to complete. Appointments are
scheduled for 90 minutes.
j. Is the assessment completed through an interview with the offender or would the
offender fill out a questionnaire for later scoring? The COMPAS is mailed to the client
to review and compile answers prior to attending the interview. We have found this

t

e
interview; such as dates and locations of treatment episodes. The client b

Page 3 of 4
ii. Clearly describe how recidivism will be impacted: Offenders referred to Intake
are at moderate to high risk of reoffending based on their COIVIPAS scores.
The Intake helps establish a supervision plan aimed at the offender's assessed
criminogenic needs. EBPs indicate that interventions targeted at criminogenic
needs of moderate to high risk offenders will result in recidivism reduction.
Thereby reducing the liklihood of future criminal behavior or additional
violations.
. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT: At Midyear and Year end you are required to report on the
status of the following Key Performance Indicators, at a minimum:
a. OCC recommends that 75% of PA511 funded program enrollees are from this program's
primary target population. This discourages net-widening and focuses on populations in
support of your objective(s).
b. Track the changes in PCRs, ADP and/or LOS based upon your program objectives per
Part I. This will reflect status toward achievement of your objective(s).
c. Track the percentage of assessments that result in placement in programming based on
assessed risk and/or need.
6. Develop additional performance indicators based on your program as you deem appropriate.

CASE MANAGEMENT —
• Only Community Based Case Management uses this form. Jail Population Monitor and
Gatekeeper use a different form (Case Management is more of a SERVICE while JPM and
Gatekeeper are more of a FUNCTION).
• Proposed definition of Case Management:
o Problem-solving activity for specific populations to address barriers to successful
completion of probation characterized by assessment, planning, linkage to specific
services, monitoring and advocacy; promotes reduction of barriers to success and
improved outcomes.
• Since this sounds suspiciously like "probation" or possibly "intensive supervision", proposed
use of this program should be for very specific populations (targets) and very closely tied to
your objective(s).
• You will be asked to clearly explain why additional case management beyond what is provided
by probation supervision is necessary to help achieve your objectives.
• Case Management is not used to simply do data entry for offender enrollment and
termination.
• If you have questions about what form to use or if your program really is "case management"
please contact your grant coordinator.

intensive programs are a priority population.
Describe the program --
a.
.
Is an assessment (not screening) required to determine eligibility? YES all referrals
require an asSessment prior to enrollment into Step Forward. The assessment is used
to determine eligibility and to determine a supervision plan, the intake is conducted
by the intake staff.
b. Is assessment (not screening) part of the case planning process? YES The case
managers receive the COMPAS results and bio/psych/social narrative from the intake
staff, this assessment is used to create the treatment plan for the offender. We are
using a case planning section within our Cstar database which assists in a seamless
transition from intake to case planning in order to meet the offender's needs. The
COMPAS scales are used to determine into which services/groups the offender will be
placed. Groups currently available are: Women in Crisis Group, Dual Diagnosis
Treatment, Young Male Offenders Group, Substance Abuse Group, Domestic Violence
Group (for both men and women), Anger Management Group, Cognitive Restructuring
Group (Thinking Matters), Experiential Learning Group, RED1 (for OU1L III offenders) and
Career Pathways. All groups are tied to a COMPAS need and are considered a "task" in
addressing that need.
c. Based on what your program is intended to address within your targeted population,
what are your eligibility (including exclusionary) criteria? Be sure to include assessment
scores if applicable. The client must score a 5 or greater on the Violence Recidivism
or General Recidivism OR under the Criminogenic Need Scales on the COMPAS they
have 7 or more areas in which the score is "probable" or "highly probable" OR they
are a probation violator.
d. Are recommendations for this program made in the PSI or PV sentence
recommendation? YES .
e. How else are offenders identified and/or referred to this program? All potential clients
are referred to the intake unit. Defendants are referred either as a condition of bond
or offenders are referred by the Probation Department to fulfill their probationary
obligations. Referrals may come directly from the bench or defense counsel as well.
f. identify who is responsible for confirming eligibility and describe the process? The
intake staff is responsible for confirming eligibility based upon their COMPAS scores
from the intake and assessment. Questions on eligilbilty are referred to the
Supervisor for resolution.
Page 2 of 6
g. Describe your process for addressing referrals not meeting program target/eligibility. If
a client is not eligible for Step Forward the court and/or agent is notified immediately
after the intake has been completed via phone and/or in writing. Additionally, the
offender is provided a list of community resources that may be able to meet their
needs on a less intensive basis.
h. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? Once the client has been deemed eligible for
Step Forward, they are entered into our C*Star database. It operates in a similar
fashion as COMPAS case manager, in that each enrollment reuires a program code.
Our codes mimic the CCIS codes. Therefore when a Step Forward enrollment is
generated it is saved as an 124 under the P& S funding. We can query the database at
any time for the number of 124s completed for that day or within a specified time
period. All required CCIS information is captured as a comma delineated file and sent
to NorthPointe.
Does Case Management include goal/task setting? YES If yes, explain how
goals/tasks are established and monitored: The case manager establishes a
supervision plan with each client based upon the COMPAS assessment. The case
managers will focus on the four highest RISK/NEED categories and add goals, tasks and
activities which will address those RISK/NEEDS. The supervision plan is reviewed on
a monthly basis during 1-1 sessions or as needed. If changes occur in the offender's
life then the treatment plan will be adjusted so that this 'change' can be addressed.
j. If referrals are made to other programs, they are both PA 511 and non-PA 511
funded.
k. What is the frequency of reporting/contact with the offender? The case managers
meet with the offenders at a minimum of one time per month. However, this can be
increased based upon the offenders RISK/NEEDS. Additionally, offenders attend
groups 1-3 times per week while in the Step Forward program.
I. How is frequency of reporting/contact determined? The frequency is based upon the
offender's initial screening and their RISK/NEED level. Initially, meetings with their
case manager may be more frequent however; the more compliant the offender
becomes, the less they may need to report Case managers will reduce the reporting
requirements as an incentive for compliance or increase meetings if warranted.
m. What happens during a typical session with an offender and how long is it estimated to
take? During a typical session with a case manager the supervision plan is reviewed
and any adjustments are made at this time. The offenders are assigned to any
appropriate groups, theya re given a start date and provided rules of the program. In
subsequent meetings the case managers assist the client by linking them with services
in the community (housing, employment etc). The case managers also target the
needs of the offender and work with them on a 1-1 basis by using the Carey Guides
aimed at specifc criminogenic areas.
n. Does the program design include collateral contacts with family, employer, school,
treatment provider, etc.? YES the case managers work with the offenders on issues
relating to their family relationships, employment, referrals to educational institutions
and finking them with additional treatment providers in the community if required.
The case managers and the providers in the community communicate so that they can
effectively share information arid incorporate the progress, or areas of concern, into
Page 3 of 6
the offender's supervision plan. .
o. Does the program assist offenders with securing identification and/or refer to additional
social or supportive services such as health care or clothing assistance? YES case
managers connect the offender to any services in the community that they need in
order to be successful. The referrals may include assistance in obtaining birth records,
social security cards, State ID or their Driver's License. Additionally, the case
managers utilize community agencies that have clothing assistance, food pantries, or
free medical services.
p. Does the program monitor for new criminal activity? YES Pretrial investigators in the
field will contact the Step Forward program if someone who is enrolled in the Step
Forward is rearrested. This enrollment information is kept on CsStar and is readily
available to all our staff. In addition case managers ask clients during 1-:1 sessions
about new criminal activity. After termination from the program, clients are tracked
periodically to determine if any rearrests have occurred.
q. This program provides drug/alcohol testing.
r. Explain involvement in 'q' above including the frequency/cost of testing if provided as
part of this program: The frequency of testing is primarily based upon the offender's
drug of choice, assessment at intake, length of clean time, and input from the
referring agent. Currently probation is only able to test once or twice per month.
However these tests are not random. Providing additional drug testing for those
offenders who use opiates or cocaine will help us identify individuals who are having
problems or are continuing to use in a more timely manner. The cost of a drug test is
$15.00 per test. Step Forward will only pay for those offenders in which additional
testing is deemed necessary.
s. How are delivered services, offender progress and participation documented by the
service provider? All client participation, progress and notes is tracked within our
Cstar database. Additional paperforms, court referral, releases of information are kept
in a paper file.
t. How is offender progress/participation reported to the probation officer or referral
source? Include frequency of reporting positive and negative progress and types of
reports provided such as intake, monthly, termination, etc. Referral sources receive
an intake status report as well as copies of the treatment plan and COMPAS
assessment. They are also provided monthly progress reports from the case
managers. Additionally, the referral source receives a completion/termination
reports and are notified promptly if the offender is non-compliant.
u. How does this program differ from the services provided by the probation department?
This program is about addressing underlying crinninogenic needs, probation is
still more about enforcement of conditions of probation which may or may not
have anything to do with crinninogenic needs.
v. Why can probation officers not provide this level of service? Probation Agents are not
able to meet with the offenders at this level of intensity primarily due to high
caseloads. The case managers at Step Forward are able to focus strictly on completing
activities related to the offender's criminogenic needs. They are able to tie what is
being discussed within the various groups into the offenders 1-1 sessions.
Page 4 of 6
w. Review your answers above. Summarize other aspects of the program not specifically
identified above that you feel are critical to understanding this program: Case
managers have caseloads of about 70 offenders for which they coordinate supervision
plans. Case mangers are also required to facilitate 3 groups per week and work at
least 2 evening shifts (until, 7:30pm). This allows them to see their clients even more
frequently and allows them to build into their 1-1 sessions lessons from the group.
The DDJR case managers have OUIL III cases only. These case manger visit all clients
prior to being released from the PRC to establish a rapport with the offender.

i. If YES, by targeting which Key Performance Indicator? Both
If "Both," please describe below how your plan will impact each.
ii. Clearly describe how recidivism will be impacted: The Program will
impact recidivism by targeting offenders (violators) that are high risk
high need and developing case plans based on COMPAS criminogenic
needs. Research shows that targeting criminogenic needs will reduce
recidivism by up to 30%. High risk offfenders are often referred to the
Step Forward program as a condition of probation, or as a result of a
technical violation. Having them referred to Step Forward reduces their
criminal activity by targeting criminogenic needs. This significantly
reduces the chance of addition violations or new criminal behavior that
could result in a prison sentence.

CASE MANAGEMENT —
• Only Community Based Case Management uses this form. Jail Population Monitor and
Gatekeeper use a different form (Case Management is more of a SERVICE while JPM and
Gatekeeper are more of a FUNCTION).
• Proposed definition of Case Management:
o Problem-solving activity for specific populations to address barriers to successful
completion of probation characterized by assessment, planning, linkage to specific
services, monitoring and advocacy; promotes reduction of barriers to success and
improved outcomes.
• Since this sounds suspiciously like "probation" or possibly "intensive supervision", proposed
use of this program should be for very specific populations (targets) and very closely tied to
your objective(s).
• You will be asked to clearly explain why additional case management beyond what is provided
by probation supervision is necessary to help achieve your objectives.
• Case Management is not used to simply do data entry for offender enrollment and
termination.
• If you have questions about what form to use or if your program really is "case management"
please contact your grant coordinator.

Oakland County Jail who are convicted of a felony offense, have a SGL in the straddle cell range or are
moderate to high risk for reoffending according to the COMPAS scores. If there is room in the
program misdemeanors (male or female) that are sentenced to more than 50 days in jail and have
been sentenced into the program by the judge so that a time cut can be awarded. Misdemeanors
would need to have 3 or more prior misdemeanors or 1 or more prior felony in order to be
considered "high" risk and eligible for services /funding
. ' ,Des6rIbe the program
a. Is an assessment (not screening) required to determine eligibility? YES Eligibility
will be based on the offender's COMPAS score. The offender must score a 3 or above
in Risk scales or 3 or above in a minimum of two needs scales: criminal personality,

prior misdemeanors or 1 or more prior felony in order to be considered "high" risk and
eligible for services /funding
. Are recommendations for this program made in the PSI or PV sentence
recommendation? YES Sometimes, it depends on the agent and the judge.
. How else are offenders identified and/or referred to this program? Offenders can be
sentenced into the program by the courts, reviewing the jail population for eligible
candidates is also done to find possible candidates Potential candidates are
forwarded to the court for the possibility of an amended sentence for participation.
Offenders can also make requests to participate in the program through caseworkers
working within the jail.
. Identify who is responsible for confirming eligibility and describe the process? This
process is completed and confirmed by staff of the OCSO who works directly with the
program.

Page 2 of 5
an offender is sentenced to the program by the courts on an ineligible charge the
offender is notified, and a letter is sent to the court informing the judge that the
offender is ineligible for the program. These offenders may be eligible for other non-
community corrections funded programs offered within the jail by Sheriffs Office
Program Services staff.
h. How is CCIS data gathered/entered? Information on admissions and completions are
complied and then entered into the C*star database. Program information is stored
under program code 124. We can query the database at any time for the number of
I24s completed that day or within a specified time period. All required CCIS
information is captured as a comma delineated file and send to NothPointe
i. Does Case Management include goal/task setting? YES If yes, explain how
goals/tasks are established and monitored: Goals are discussed and addressed during
one on one contact with each participant. Tasks and goals are established based on
participant's needs, COMPAS information, Intake Assessment, and TCU II Drug Screen.
j. If referrals are made to other programs, they are non-PA 511 funded.
k. What is the frequency of reporting/contact with the offender? Each offender is
required to attend 6 group sessions per week and a minimum of 2 individual sessions
during the 6 week program. The offender attends 3 classes per week of the Thinking
Matters and 3 sessions on reentry related topics. The topics covered are; Addiction,
criminal behavior, employment, stages of change (subsance abuse), social skills,
communication, and support systems. Some topics cover more than one session. The
2 individuals sessions take place at the beginning of the program, to discuss goals, and
at the end of the program to develop a discharge plan.
I. How is frequency of reporting/contact determined? Due to the short amount of time
we have the offenders, the frequency of reporting is the same for all. Offenders are
receiving a minimum of six contact sessions per week.
m. What happens during a typical session with an offender and how long is it estimated to
take? One on one sessions will include, social, family, employment, educational,
medical, substance abuse and mental health history. Additionally participants are
required to attend three session lectures per week. The topics are fixed topics that
cover the following: Substance Abuse, Mental Health, Community Resources,
Employment, Support Systems, and Motivational Interviewing. A plan is discussed
with the participant based on needs and requirements that will be needed upon
release. A follow up contact will be conducted to give referrals and specific
information based on needs. Re-evaluation of goals and tasks to be accomplished
upon their re-entry into the community. Intervention opportunities are available to
participants post lecture if necessary. Total time meeting with individuals on one on
one basis during their time in the program is 60 -75 minutes, in some cases longer
depending on need. Examples of case mangement may include issues like psychiatric
medication, death of a family members, suicidal thoughts and or other related crisis or
non-crisis interventions.
n. Does the program design include collateral contacts with family, employer, school,
treatment provider, etc.? YES Based on goals, tasks and needs, additional contacts
for information may be completed by caseworker. Gathered information would be
given to participant in 2nd follow up contact session.
Page 3 of 5

social or supportive services such as health care or clothing assistance? . YES Limited ID
verification can be provided upon request if needed. Health and Mental Health service
referrals are given if needed and required based on need. If participant is open with
the Mental Health Provider far the county, an appointment is coordinated thourgh
OCSO fird5011, Healthy Michigan information is given to participant. Educational
information is also given upon need for GED classes. Employment resources are also
given at this time.
p. Does the program monitor for new criminal activity? YES clients who complete the
program are tracked 6, 12 and 24 months after discharge to determine if any rearrests
or reconvictions have occurred.
q. This program does not address drug/alcohol testing.
r. Explain involvement in 'q' above including the frequency/cost of testing if provided as
part of this program:
s. How are delivered services, offender progress and participation documented by the
service provider? Documentation is detailed in !MACS Program Services Database
(Sheriffs Office information system), and a hard copy file is also kept. Offender
enrollment and termination dates, codes are tracked in C*star Database. Additional
related information in file include: Intake/Goal Assessment, TCU Drug Screen II, Signed
Program Rules, Completion Certificate, Referal Source Court Order.
. How is offender progress/participation reported to the probation officer or referral
source? Include frequency of reporting positive and negative progress and types of
reports provided such as intake, monthly, termination, etc. Probation is notified of
participant completion of the program so that outdates may be adjusted.
Agents are also sent a copy of the offenders discharge plan for follow up.
U. How does this program differ from the services provided by the probation department?
Probation does not attach until the offender is released from jail. This is a jail
based program and as such the offenders are a "captive" audience and
therefore can participate in groups 1 to 2 times per day. Program Services staff
has a close working relationship with OCSO personnel which is required for
participant placement, transport and release into the community.
. Why can probation officers not provide this level of service? Time does not allow
