ITEM CATEGORY SPONSORED BY Contract Penny Luebs INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO) recognizes that law enforcement capabilities are enhanced by having access to mental health professionals. By utilizing a co-responder model, law enforcement and mental health clinicians respond to calls for service together, providing an improved and immediate response to crisis situations by conducting a more accurate needs assessment on scene for the person in distress, and connecting them and their families to community-based resources. The OCSO is requesting to continue an interlocal agreement with the Oakland County Health Network (OCHN) for a co-responder team program, which consists of a collaborative team comprised of law enforcement with the support of an embedded licensed behavior health clinician. The OCHN full-time licensed clinician responds to calls with OCSO deputies and provides case consultation, crisis intervention, service coordination, and referrals/linkage to resources for individuals. The interlocal agreement is for FY 2024-FY2026, October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2026 and includes a not to exceed amount of $380,975 for salary and fringe benefits of the full-time clinician, technology costs, vehicle/mileage, and supervision.
