Approved 8/25/2014 by Monroe County Community Corrections Advisory Board Grant Goals and Objectives Accomplishment For the following goals and objectives please report the status as required by the grant as Meets or Did not Meet as well as providing an Explanation. This is mandatory. A.) GOAL: The agency will ensure all participants have a completed Indiana Risk Assessment (IRAS), a risk and needs assessment tool, upon intake into the grant funded program. Objective 1: At minimum, an IRAS Assessment will be completed on all participants, serving 180 days or longer, within 5 working days of intake into the program. Status: Meets (The new database Quest automatically sets up a 5 day IRAS completion deadline alert from start of Day Reporting (CASP) case begin date. IRAS results are imported from Incite. Quest produces a quarterly audit report for supervisor review. 96% of cases reviewed were in compliance with only 4% late due to delays in file reception.) Objective 2: At minimum, a final IRAS Assessment will be completed within 5 days of release from community corrections, if one has not been completed within the last 180 days. A copy of the assessment will be forwarded to the supervising agency (parole or probation). Status: Meets (As of 1/1/2014 all community corrections, problem solving court and probation are sharing the same data base Quest. The system has an automated deadline alert when 180 days is approaching for each case. This includes cases that are handed off from community corrections to probation. IRAS results are imported from Incite. Quest generates an audit report. ) Objective 3: An IRAS compliance audit on the two objectives stated above will be conducted and documented on a quarterly basis with the final results reported in the annual report. Status: Meets (Our database Quest was customized to automatically generate compliance results. Case files are reviewed by the supervisor for compliance. Results are indicated above. 7 P a g e

8 B.) GOAL: The agency will create and maintain a case plan for each participant in the grant funded program. Objective 1: A case plan will be developed, based on the IRAS, for each participant, excluding Community Service/Restitution participants, within 5 business days from the completion date of the initial IRAS. Status: Did Not Meet Needs Improvement (Quest pulls in IRAS results from Incite. The case plan is created by merging the IRAS domains with appropriate EBP responses known in Quest as requirements. There are some situations that might delay the case plan if the probation first follow-up (after sentencing) has not been completed as quickly as the community corrections program start-up. Officers are now experimenting with a pilot case plan which involves more interaction with offenders. 77% reviewed in Quest quarterly reports met standards, 21% were completed late and 2% were revoked offenders.) Objective 2: The participant s case plan will be consistently updated according to the timeline set forth in the agency s approved case management policy. Status: Status: Meets (Community corrections, problem solving court, and probation all utilize the behavioral objective which updates the case plan progress upon each case manager appointment with the client.)

15 Additional Information & Attachments for Agency Statistics: Historical Highlights 1983 Monroe County Community Corrections began officially on October 3, 1983 with four initial components: House Arrest, Road Crew, Public Restitution, and Victim-Offender Reconciliation Program (VORP). Peggy Welch (past State Representative) was appointed as the first director. The program from the onset has been a division of the Monroe County Probation Department The program was recognized with the Governor s Exemplary Project Award The Job Release component was added through cooperation with the Monroe County Sheriff s Department. Job Release participants were housed in the local jail while not working or attending treatment Indiana University expanded internship opportunities with Monroe County Community Corrections VORP was disconnected as a component House Arrest began using 15 Visitel electronic monitoring units Thomas A. Rhodes was appointed as Community Corrections Director and has continued since that time. Electronic monitoring was expanded to 30 Visitel units. House Arrest and Job Release combined to become the Community Alternative Supervision Program (CASP) The first networked computer and communication systems were installed Expansion and enhancement of electronic monitoring took place with the acquisition of 65 anklets with field officer drive-by scanners Day Reporting began initially with space provided by Workforce Development at 405 W. 7 th Street Monroe County Community Corrections relocated from the Justice Building to 405 W. 7 th Street. Child Support Motivation Program began Juvenile Alternative Management Sessions (JAMS) and Parental Enhancement Program both began The Community Corrections Director attended the first What Works training offered by the Indiana Department of Correction Community Alternative Supervision Program (CASP) was restructured to include programming incentives and sanctions from Work Release, Home Detention and Day Reporting.

17 DAY REPORTING Description & Target Population: Program description During 1999, the organizational structure of Community Corrections was changed when a new program for adult offenders was implemented. The new program, the Community Alternative Supervision Program (CASP), incorporates a continuum of sanctions approach to corrections. This continuum of sanctions allows Community Corrections staff to administratively move offenders through various levels of supervision intensity, allowing offenders to experience immediate rewards for appropriate conduct and immediate consequences for violating program and probation rules. The CASP is comprised of five levels of supervision: Level I Level II Level III Level IV Level V Work release (discontinued but for Greene County Work Release transfers) Home detention combined with Day Reporting and electronic monitoring Home detention with electronic monitoring Transitional Home Detention verified by passive electronic monitoring Day reporting with daily check-ins only, with no movement restrictions Prior to the implementation of CASP, the Work Release Program, Day Reporting Program and House Arrest Program were all separate Community Corrections program components. In 1999, the CASP was created by merging all three components together into a multi-level continuum of sanctions system. The Home Detention program officially began in 1983, although limited forms of house arrest were used prior to that year. The Day Reporting program began in mid Participants on the program must remain at their residences unless allowed to leave for work, school, treatment and/or religious activities. Electronic surveillance (anklets worn by participants) is combined with officer home visits to provide intensive supervision of offenders. Clients report for daily check-ins and must submit to alcohol/drug testing as directed. Clients are to be gainfully employed, attending classes or participating in treatment on a full-time basis to avoid being referred for community service work. Each participant is assessed a $12 per day fee for Level 2 & 3, $9 daily fee for Level 4, and $3 per day fee for Level 5 to help pay expenses. There is also an electronic monitoring enhancement fee of $4 per day if the client is placed on GPS. Target Population Primary target population includes class D felons and some class A misdemeanants. Generally, medium to high risk offenders are placed on this program. A high volume of alcohol/substance abuse offenders receive treatment services as coordinated by a case manager. Monroe County has developed CASP in order to transition offenders through sanction levels, without Court delays, as participants progress in their case plans. 17 P a g e

21 PROBLEM SOLVING COURT Description & Target Population: Program description The Monroe County Drug Treatment Court is a specialized two year problem solving court addressing serious substance abuse problems by utilizing five defined phases: (1) stabilization; (2) treatment; (3) living sober; (4) life plan; and (5) unsupervised. Drug Court participants are initially screened by the Monroe County Prosecutor's office as being potentially eligible for the program. The Drug Court Team determines which referrals will be accepted into the program. Drug Court offers a compelling choice for individuals by providing close judicial supervision to enforce and encourage substance abuse treatment, and other social services needful for rehabilitation. Each volunteer participant is responsible for all costs associated with program participation and achieving successful completion of the program. The Drug Court provides enhanced offender supervision with frequent drug testing, home contacts and intense judicial involvement. Re-Entry Court & Mental Health Court were implemented in the later part of the program year. Target Population Drug Treatment Court: the target population is the chronic and high risk non-violent adult (18 or older) felony offender, residing in Monroe County, with an admitted addiction to a substance, including alcohol, who has previously failed to remain substance-free through treatment and with other community sentencing alternatives such as Community Corrections and Probation. Re-Entry Court: the target population are felons returning from DOC to complete sentence under problem solving court supervision. Offenders must reside in Monroe County and have completed programming while incarcerated at DOC. Mental Health Court: the target population are felons who have been diagnosed with mental illness which impairs their prosocial behavior. Offenders must reside in Monroe County. 21 P a g e

28 Principles of Effective Intervention Compliance For each principle, please write a brief description on how the agency is providing continuous quality improvement Assess Actuarial Risk/Needs Staff has been conducting validated risk/needs screening/assessment on 100% of convicted felony offenders. Staff conducts IRAS on all participants using various IRAS tools as prescribed. Staff has acquired and maintained certification for the IRAS assessment tool. All probation officers are certified in applicable IRAS/IYAS. Fidelity to the assessment instrument will be monitored using a quality assurance instrument. Video review is part of evaluation process.
