Oakland Community He alth Ne twork (OCHN) Tre atme nt Liaison Office r: The OCHN Liaison is our programs the program’s connection to
community mental health and provides evidence-based treatment guidance during team meetings, as well as proper screening and assessment
procedures. Our liaison’s role is multi-faceted. During the screening process, all candidates who meet the basic eligibility requirements and agree
to the program are required to complete an ACCESS community mental health screening and assessment. This can only be completed by a
licensed provider, as it requires a variety of professional assessment tools, including a LOCUS test, NIDA (National Institute on Drug
Abuse) scoring system and ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) trauma assessment. During this ACCESS screening, the candidate is enrolled in
community mental health if they are Medicaid eligible or connected with services if they have other insurance. This allows the participant to be
connected to services before the beginning of the program. The liaison then provides a report to the team detailing the result of the assessments,
the candidate’s risk of harm to themselves and others, the potential for co-occuring disorders, and recommendation for program acceptance. The
liaison is also capable of providing a preliminary diagnosis following the assessment, which is critical for program entry per SCAO Best Practices.
Many candidates may have never had access to treatment and have struggled with mental illness without a formal diagnosis that allows them to
begin services.
During each phase of the program, the liaison assesses the provider treatment plan, maintains contact with providers, and provides treatment and
medication compliance updates to the team during staff meetings. The liaison meets regularly with participants, and provides them with a treatment
perspective and a resource if they are in crisis. Even with their efforts towards compliance, many participants in FY 2023 experienced mental health
crises, including relapses, suicidal thoughts, mania, and self-harming activities. The liaison has provided a more appropriate treatment response to
each individual situation, guided the team and participant through the crisis, and has direct access to crisis providers, such as Common Ground.
Prior to the liaison position, the team had to rely largely on the participant to provide updates on their crisis, which was difficult.
The liaison has access to the wealth of resources offered by OCHN and its affiliates, which also allows the participants access to tools that
encourage them to reach their personal goals. During FY 2023, the liaison shared resources for a community baby shower for expecting mothers,
career fairs and other community connections. The liaison provides training opportunities to the team through OCHN, which allows the team to
ensure the program follows evidence based treatment practices.
Currently the OCHN Liaison position is fully funded by the grant as a full time employee with a FY 2023 salary of $56,165. This salary does not
include the benefits which OCHN figures at 42%. While FY 2024 salary/benefits are not available, we project this costing to be approximately
$87,360. This figure is derived by taking the FY 2023 salary of $56,165 and multiplying it by 9% to account for both a merit raise and cost of living
increase, which equates to $61,220. Then multiplying that by the 42% figure provided by OCHN for benefits would equal a total salary/benefits of
$86,933 or approximately $42/ hour.
Calculation: $56,165 (current FY 2023 salary) x .09% (merit raise & cost of living) = $61,220 x 42% (project cost of benefits) = $86,933 or $41.795

year.
Ele ctronic M onitoring: A GPS tether is often a necessary component of any treatment court. While sanctions are unfortunately a part of every
treatment court, incarceration isn’t always the best answer. A GPS tether is a great tool to keep the individual on track with counseling, and
medications without the disruption of jail, but maintaining safety for the community and teaching them responsibility. There are rare occasions GPS
may be necessary at the beginning of the program but would be reserved for those truly struggling to maintain their treatment and compliance with
conditions while entering the program (i.e. multiple bond violations) or for those that require additional adherence to a no-contact or not-to-return-
to order that is necessary for protecting the participant, victim and community. Additionally, in some instances, this population struggles with
reliable transportation yet still must be monitored for abstinence from alcohol. In these cases having the participant submit to alcohol testing via a
portable alcohol monitoring unit is a very effective and reliable method of testing. It is important for participants to pay for their own sanctions,
however, it is costly and again could be a disruption to focus on treatment. During the period of stabilization during the first phase, many
participants struggle to maintain the cost of testing, but also have a high risk of relapsing before their treatment begins. Therefore we would
request funding to pay for enrollment at a not to exceed $100 amount as well as a month of monitoring at a not to exceed amount of $10 per day
for 30 days. We would like to have enough to fund each of the projected 26 participants for at least 1 month of service throughout the program for
this monitoring to support their success in the critical early stages of the program.
Calculation: $100 enrollment + $300 (30 days x $10/ day) = $400 per participant. x 26 participants = $10,400
Drug Te sting: During a portion of FY 2022 we were able to pay for drug testing for all new participants in the program who were required to
complete daily testing which encouraged many of them to join the program, as they felt this supported them at a time when they had only limited
resources. Participation in this program is completely voluntary, which is typically an indication of their desire to obtain recovery. There are many
factors that may deter individuals from entering or being successful in a treatment court program; however as indicated by past participant survey’s
in our other treatment court programs, the financial burden and stress of testing are significant areas of concern. Many of our participants enter in
the program with active addiction issues as well as mental health issues. The team requires up to daily drug and alcohol testing for those struggling
with addiction to ensure sobriety, encourage pride in each day of sobriety and ensure community safety. Funding this testing as the participants try
to balance this new system financially keeps the participants focused, without adding to the participants’ already high levels of stress and financial
concerns.
We are seeking funding to provide assistance with drug and alcohol monitoring during the first 30 days in the program through a contractor, Drop
Zone. This will provide the participant ample time to concentrate on their stabilizing their medications instead of self-medicating with illegal or other
controlled substances, find employment and build their support system without the increased stress and financial burden of the cost of testing.
Drop Zone currently provides us a discounted rate for our treatment court participants of $8 per test (drug and alcohol). Drop Zone utilizes a
specialized pbt straw that has a built in screen designed to filter out airborne virus’s and partials, including the COVID -19 virus. This filter provides
both the tester and participant a safer and healthier testing environment, which is especially beneficial considering the continued concerns
regarding COVID-19 variants. Drop Zone will provide confirmation testing on disputed tests, but the participant would be responsible for those
service/ confirmation fees. We would like the ability to potentially fund all 26 participants in FY 2024.
Calculation: 26 participants x $240 (30 days x $8 per test) = $6,240.
2/9/24 AMD: Additionally, under Drug Testing we would like to add RESULTS as a testing facility for our participants.
AMD 4/10/24 AMD: We are requesting that we add RESULTS & TAP (Class A Training) as testing agencies to our ‘Drug Testing’ line item.
We would also request that the cost of testing be adjusted to the following:
For Drug Testing Not to Exceed $10 per test.
For ETG testing Not to Exceed $20 per test.

County She riff De puty Ov e rtime : Home Visits are an essential element of the Mental Health Court procedures and are critical to the participant’s
and program’s success. Home Visits offer insight into the participant’s home environment to identify needs not previously communicated or
known to the team, and also allows the team another avenue to evaluate the participants potential for harm to themselves or the community. For
participants struggling to maintain their own basic needs, a view inside their home may be the first time the provider and team are aware of the
need for further treatment intervention. The 52nd District Court, encompasses over 30 jurisdictions, some patrolled by the Oakland County Sheriff
Department and some by municipal police departments. Some of the agencies only have 2-3 police officers on the road at any given time.
Requesting those agencies pull an officer off the road from patrol to assist with home visits creates not only a hardship within the department, but
also the potential of reducing community safety during that time. Additionally, the ability of utilizing an Oakland County Sheriff Deputy for home
visits, has granted the ability to allow participants who sometimes live right on the edge of our jurisdiction, to participate in our program, when they
otherwise would be excluded. Utilizing an Oakland County Sheriff’s Deputy allows us to accept these individuals into our program as we are able to
conduct home visits. This is especially helpful given the limited amount of Mental Health Court availability in Oakland County.
Therefore, we are requesting approximately 8 hours of overtime for a D-II/ Patrol Deputy to conduct home visits on a monthly basis for the entire 12
month period of FY 2022. At the time this grant was submitted, the exact per overtime hour cost of a D-II/ Patrol Deputy was unknown. Therefore
the cost was calculated at the known 2023 cost of $75.60 per hour x 5% increase = $79.38 per hour, but will figure projections at $80 per hour.
Calculation: $80 / hour x 8 hours per month = $640 x 12 months = $7,680. .
Laboratory Drug Te sting: One issue we have discovered this year is the use of Kratom and Fentanyl is prevalent among some of our
participants.This and a few other substances will not register a positive screen on an instant urine drug test cup and necessitates a lab test to
detect and confirm. Additionally some of the positive test results need to be confirmed through a lab to ensure only accurate violations are
pursued. While most of these confirming tests will be the responsibility of the participants, lab testing can be costly. These tests vary in cost from
$20 to $50 as a result we would calculate based on a not to exceed amount of $40 per lab test and estimate 4 tests requiring confirmation per
month.
Calculation: $40 per confirmation x 4 per month = $160 x 12 month = $1,920.
GED Te sting: Education is an important aspect for vocational improvement for participants and to improve their overall quality of life. The program
has approximately four current participants that did not completed high school. Encouraging these individuals to complete their GED would be
paramount to increase future success in finding gainful employment. It is also an accomplishment that is a great source of pride to many
participants to have the opportunity to further their education, and it is not uncommon for this to be one of the personal goals they set out to
achieve during the first stage of the program. Covering the cost of GED testing allows the judge to encourage rewarding this achievable goal.
There are 5 modules to the GED test and they are $37.50 each. Assuming the program will routinely have the same approximate number of
individuals in FY 2024 with this education need, we would ask for the ability to pay for their testing. If factoring in the cost of each element (5) x the
cost of each test ($37.50) is $187.50 cost per client. For all four participants it would cost approximately $750 to fully fund.
Calculation: $37.50 x 5 modules = $187.50 x 4 participants = $750
Eme rge ncy Housing: There are some individuals who enter the program homeless or without safe or proper living environments. In FY 2023, we
had two participants who became homeless during the program and two participants that were homeless or living in a shelter program upon entry
into the program. Although there are shelter and emergency housing options within Oakland County, these options are rarely available for an
extended period of time, may require the participant to be in mental crisis, and often have an extensive waitlist, especially in the winter
months. Emergency housing at a hotel is a great interim solution. While the Oakland County area does not have a great deal of inexpensive
hotels/motels, $100 per night including tax is obtainable, and allows our program to provide basic necessities to protect our participants. There are
very few who should need this option, therefore it is requested for 5 participants, 5 nights at $100 per night equaling $2500.
Calculation: $100 per night x 5 nights = $500 x 5 participants = $2500

2/15/24 AMD: We are requesting to add a line item under Contractual/ Assessment Tools to help partially fund a validated Criminogenic Risk/
Needs Assessment Tool for our Treatment Court Program.
Specifically we are requesting that $1808 be moved from Contractual/ OCHN Liaison Line Item to a Contractual/ Assessments Line Item to cover
the following costs.
The specific criminogenic assessment tool we are planning to implement is the LS-CMI. The specific fees for the LS-CMI are the following:
On Demand Training ($635) and the Training Kit & Manual ($144) for our 2 Mental Health Court Officers. The total for the Training would be $779
($635+$144) x 2 = $1558.
The total cost for the set up, delivery and final implementation of the program is $1000 which would be divided up between our court’s 4 separate
treatment courts, resulting in a per program expense of $250.
Therefore the total cost would be: $1558 (training expenses) +$250 (set up/delivery) = $1808.

Te sting Supplie s: In order to assist participants with any potential inability to pay for testing after the first 60 days, or during random office drug
tests, and home visit testing we are requesting funding for testing supplies. We expect to have maximum participation during FY 2024 therefore
would estimate 26 participants @ 1 test per month x 12 months = 312 tests for the grant period. Tests purchased through Redwood Toxicology
cost $4.40.
Calculations: 312 tests x $4.40 per iCup test = $1372.80.
Ince ntiv e s: Our program is requesting funds to purchase gift cards as an incentive based approach to encourage compliance. Positive
reinforcement of a participants mental health has proven to be extremely useful in getting the participant to want to maintain their treatment
compliance and sobriety. In FY 2023, our program created a new “coin” system , which allows the participants compliance to directly correlate to
the incentives they receive, and allows them to choose an incentive by exchanging their “coins” for the incentive that best supports their interests
and needs. Gift cards are always a favorite option among our participants and allow the incentives to be individualized. Therefore, we would ask to
be able to purchase gift cards, at a note to exceed amount of $20 per card to help encourage sober behaviors. Estimating that each of the 26
participants will receive a gift card each month at a cost of $20 per gift card, for a total of $520 per month. Over a 12 month period the cost would
be $6,240.
Calculations: $20 gift cards x 26 per month = $520 x 12 months = $6,240.
Supplie s for Participants: In several of our other treatment court programs we have at times been able to provided participants upon entry into
the program with a welcome packet which contains a folder or binder, motivational notebook, calendar and writing utensil. When a participant
enters the first phase of mental health court, they increase the amount of appointments, court monitoring requirements and ancillary services they
interact with in a given month. Many participants do not have access to organizational tools, such as a planner, that allows them to take control of
their responsibilities and to ensure proper attendance with treatment and psychiatric care. By providing them with the ability to organize their court
paperwork and appointments, participants have a greater chance of success. We have witnessed that those that do have these items and
that utilized a folder and/or planner were more consistent with court attendance, reliably brought proof of ancillary meetings and treatment
documents to appointments, and were less likely to miss appointments with community mental health that are required to begin medication and
treatment services, such as the screening to complete the Individual Plan of Service. If the participant is disorganized and misses these critical
early appointments, it prolongs their time in the program, discourages them from continuing and delays medication and treatment.
We would like to offer these supplies to our Mental Health Court participants such as folders, workbooks, day planners and motivational/self help
journals. Because the prices for these items vary, we would ask for a not to exceed amount of $30 per participant x 26 new participants = $780.
Calculations: $30 per participant x 26 participants = $780.

Graduation Gift: Each participant that successfully completes the entire program will receive a graduation gift at their graduation ceremony, which
is a token of their commitment reminder of their perseverance as they continue to reach new personal goals. We currently have 23 participatns in
our program and all are projected to graduate in FY 2024. Going on that assumption we would ask for the ability to purchase a gift not to exceed
$20 per participant x 23 would equal a total of $460.
Calculation: $20 per gift x 23 participants = $460.
Zoom Lice nse : We have found that having the ability to allow a participant to zoom in for a court hearing has been extremly beneifical espeically
when the participant is in the later stages of the program and has earned this level of reward, or in those cases where the participant lacks reliable
transportation. We have utilized this ability for montioring appointments as this is a type of reward that the participants can use once they achieve
enough coins. However, there are times where the participant is in crisis and having the ability to meet with them over zoom has help keep their
progress moving forward. During FY 2023, ZOOM was also used to complete the first step of the screening process, as candidates are often in
transitional housing or do not have transportation to complete. This screening takes at least one hour, as the officer has to gather the information
for their file and go over the program, which is not accomodated by the free ZOOM subscription. Additionally, participants are allowed to have their
guardian present for screenings and appointments, and the free version of ZOOM restricts the amount of individuals allowed in the ZOOM
meeting. For some participants, 40 minutes is not enough as as a result they are forced to end their session with the probation officer or mental
health liaison then log back in. We have found this to be extremly disruptive and unproductive to the participants success. As a result, we are
asking to be able to purchase a 12 month Business Zoom License which is $199.90. So would project this expense as a not to exceed $200
amount.

The Michigan Association of Treatment Court Professionals (MATCP)conference is an vital resource for treatment court programs. Not only for
knowledge it offers, but almost more importantly for the networking and learning opportunites it offers from other existing Mental Health Treatment
Court Programs.The estimated cost for the 2024 MATCP conference, which is scheduled to be held on May 8, 2023 & May 9, 2023, at the Lansing
Center in Lansing, MI is registration is $355 per attendee. The Program Director, Mental Health Court Probation Officer and Mental Health Court
Liaison Officer will need to attend as well as the 4 Program Judges as our court serves 4 different court jurisdictions within Oakland County.
2024 M ichigan Association of Tre atme nt Court Profe ssionals Confe re nce : $355.00 per attendee x 7 attendees = $2,485.

Additionally with the changes in allowable expenses, reimbursement for hotel expenses at the State Rate of $85/ night for 2 nights for the Program
Director, Mental Health Court Probation Officer and Mental Health Court Liaison Officer will need to attend.
Rate for lodging is calculated as follows: ($85/ night x 2 nights) = $170 x 7 attendees = $1,190.
Further round trip costs for travel which are estimated to be approximately 60 miles one way from the 52-1 District Court to the Lansing Center in
Lansing. For round trip, estimated mileage would be 120 miles per person x 7 attendees for 840 miles, reimbursed at the state rate of $0.585 per
mile. Total cost would be approximately $491.40
Rate for mileage is calculated as follows: ( 120 miles x 0.585 per mile) = $70.20 x 7 attendees = $491.40
Finally, while most meals are covered through the conference, some are not. The agenda for the 2024 MATCP Conference is not available but
taking the agenda from the 2023 MATCP and assuming the per diem will be the same, the Conference will cover breakfasts and 1 Lunch, which
would mean reimbursements would be submitted for 1 lunch and 2 dinners based on the state rates of $10.25 per lunch and $24.25 per dinner.
Total cost would be approximately $176.25
Rate for meal per diem is calculated as follows: ($10.25 per lunch x 1 lunch = $10.25) + ($24.25 per dinner x 2 dinners = $48.50) = $58.75 per
person x 7 attendees = $411.25
Therefore, the estimated total cost for 7 to attend the 2024 MATCP conference is as follows:
Registration ($2,485) + Lodging ($1,190) + Mileage ($491.40) + Meal Per Diem ($411.25) which will equal $4,577.65.
1/23/24 AMD: Adjust 2024 MATCP Conference Registration fees to $395/ which would create the following budget for 3 attendees: $395 x 3 =
$1,185.00
Adjust mileage rates to $0.440 / mile which would create the following budget for 3 attendees: 120 miles x $0.440 = $52.80/ x 3 attendees =
$158.40
Adjust Lunch reimbursement to $9.75 which would create the following budget for 3 attendees: $9.75x 3 = $29.25.
Adjust Dinner reimbursement to $22.00 which would create the following budget for 3 attendees: $22.00 x 2 dinners per = $44.00 x 3 attendees =
$132.00.
