EXHIBIT B
SCOPE OF WORK
INTENT:
The objective of this project is to provide Maricopa County’s Correctional Health Services (CHS) with
complementary behavioral health services at 4 Avenue Intake which will maximize opportunities to divert
eligible individuals, designated as Seriously Mentally Ill (SMI), streamline current CHS related intake
processes, reduce jail costs by diversion, improve coordination among the various entities at intake
including Adult Probation Pre-Trial Services, Initial Appearance Court Officials and staff, and the Regional
Behavioral Health Authority, Mercy Maricopa Integrated Care (MMIC) Jail Diversion team. MMIC
currently funds the South West Behavioral Health Services (SWBH) Criminal Justice Engagement Team
(CJET) to meet eligible, consenting individuals (determined to be low risk offenders and designated SMI),
upon release at Initial Appearance Court. Adding agency behavioral health staff within the jail to identify
referrals and offer the program with more in depth explanation and engagement will serve to increase the
number of SMI individuals accepting this diversion opportunity. It will thus improve healthcare delivery
and quality as well as reduce recidivism for the patient population designated SMI.
The goal is to incorporate community behavioral health agency staff experienced in Navigation Services
and engagement with SMI individuals who have become involved in the criminal justice system,
specifically at the earliest opportunity for engagement and possible diversion to community services.
To this end, Maricopa County Correctional Health Services offers this Request for Proposal (RFP) for an
agency to provide these behavioral health services to enhance an existing community funded service that
seeks to divert eligible SMI individuals at the earliest opportunity to promote active engagement with
behavioral health services at a critical time to improve outcomes and to reduce future recidivism.
PROBLEM STATEMENT AND BACKGROUND:
Correctional Health Services provides integrated health screening to the large population booked into the
Maricopa County Jails (95,000 in 2016). In addition, CHS Mental Health (MH) staff, stationed at 4%
Avenue Central Intake 24 hours, 365 days a year, provide crisis intervention services for the population
during the intake process including suicide assessment, placement and monitoring of individuals on suicide
watch until such time as the individual is safe. MH staff must see all individuals who report any history of
mental health treatment and/or symptoms prior to leaving intake within the 24 hour time mandated time
frame. Mental Health staff participate in decisions with the multi-discipline team regarding appropriate
housing placement for individuals who remain in custody after Initial Appearance. For individuals leaving
custody, CHS MH also engages the community crisis team for individuals unsafe for release and works to
identify community navigators who may pick other individuals up who would fare better than being
released directly to the street. The 12 FTE MH staff who must cover all shifts, all days of the week thus
see, face to face, 20 or more individuals on a given shift, making Intake the busiest clinic environment for
CHS.
Maricopa County Justice Steering Committee has authorized its subcommittee, Smart Justice to develop
goals, objectives and strategies to reduce the population and length of stay (LOS) of the Maricopa County
Jails, to reduce recidivism and particularly, to do so for the vulnerable SMI population. Accordingly,
Smart Justice developed goals that were forwarded and adopted by MC Justice, one of which (involving
reducing the number of and LOS for SMI population) was adopted by the Maricopa County Board of
Supervisors. In addition, Maricopa County became one of the early adopters of the National Stepping Up
Proclamation (May 2015) directing resources and efforts to reduce the incidence of SMI in the jail and to
work toward diversion and treatment solutions to reduce LOS and recidivism. The Maricopa County team
was selected as one of 50 Counties to attend the National Stepping Up Summit in Washington DC in April
2016. MMIC was a member to the Maricopa County team. As a direct outcome to this Summit and the
earlier Smart Justice Committee work, MMIC identified funding and developed the SWBH CJET project, a
novel approach to diversion for low risk SMI individuals at the earliest intercept, post booking. Research
conducted in 2016 by Maricopa County Justice Systems Planning and Information confirmed that chances
for recidivism are dramatically increased by stays in jail for as few as 72 hours. Given the vulnerability of
the SMI population, it is apparent that avoiding jail stays beyond 24 hours is a worthy goal.

SERIAL 180007-CI
According to Medicaid rules, services for inmate populations, besides limited case management by an
assigned SMI clinic staff, cannot receive reimbursement. Thus the SWBH CJET arrives at the jail twice
daily to pick up eligible individuals who are identified by either Adult Probation or CHS MH staff and who
consent to participation with CIET. MMIC had estimated that as many as 200 people could qualify for this
diversion program. However, due to the current challenges with MH CHS staff regarding their primary
duties, and the same challenges for Adult Probation Pre Trial Services, on average, only 30-35 individuals
are being identified per month, with a much smaller percentage of individuals providing consent to
participate (typically 40% or less). Notably, for the individuals who do consent, SW BH reports high
retention rates for the 90 days of service available to participants to help them receive necessary services
(health/behavioral health and social supports) as well as support to comply with court processes. It should
be noted that the largest single reason for the SMI population to book into jail is Failure To Appear (FTA),
an atrest which can easily be avoided with services such as those offered by SWBH.
EXPECTED OUTCOMES:
CHS expects that having within jail embedded community behavioral health staff, experienced in
engagement, assessment, community transition and treatment with the justice involved SMI population,
will dramatically increase the following:
0 Identification of individuals eligible for the diversion program
Eligible individuals consent for the CJET program
Individuals leaving intake and going with the CJET pick up team
00000
Individuals participating in the program
Reduced recidivism for participants
Identification and engagement of other individuals with SMI or other serious mental health needs
who may become more receptive to service in the jail and to accept community transition services.
It is expected that the increase in individuals identified for the program will at least triple. If MMIC sees
that the program is not being utilized it is reasonable to expect that funding for the program may not
continue which would be a loss of a valuable service to meet established County Goals.
In addition, CHS expects there will be less duplication of work with Adult Probation and less interruption
of their primary responsibilities involved in assuring safety and medically necessary treatment of the
population while at intake.
SCOPE OF WORK:
The agency will provide trained behavioral health staff, as described above, with expertise in engagement,
assessment, treatment and community engagement of the justice involved SMI population such that they
can operate effectively in a high volume, high acuity and complex environment. These staff will interface
with individuals who have been booked after determining SMI status through the MMIC portal and/or
communication with Adult Probation and/or CHS MH staff. They will focus primarily on the population
determined to be eligible by Adult Probation and/or CHS by virtue of representing low risk in the
community. These staff will interact with the eligible population in between and/or in collaboration with
Adult Probation Pre-Trial services staff during their assessment, CHS MH staff during their patient
assessment and intervention, MCSO officers responsible for transporting and monitoring individuals
through the various intake processes, including the release process, with the MMIC Jail Diversion staff to
avoid overlap and duplication of duties, and finally with the Superior Court judicial officers and staff up to
and including IA court.
a. MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS:
« Agency staff need to have availability and flexibility to be present at Intake at intervals
across the 24 hour and 7 day week cycle, mirroring the times when individuals are
booked.
e Agency staff must have access to the RBHA-MMIC data system portals to be able to
identify their SMI status.
e Agency staff must be able to function in a jail setting, to pass necessary background
checks and to conduct themselves in a high security environment.

SERIAL 180007-CI
e Agency staff must be able to interact with CHS staff, all disciplines, Adult Probation and
MCSO Detention Officers and Superior Court judicial officers and staff.
DESIRED REQUIREMENTS:
The applying agency will utilize at least some staff known as “peers” who have shared and lived
experience either through involvement in the criminal justice system and/or with their own
behavioral health issues. This peer model, endorsed and supported by Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is an Evidence Based Practice that leads to
better outcomes through increased engagement with the targeted population.
IMPLEMENTATION SERVICES:
It is expected that the agency will be able to provide services after mandatory processes such as
CHS orientation and MCSO background check and badging occur.
FACILITIES:
During the course of this Contract, the County shall provide the Contractor’s personnel with
adequate workspace for consultants and such other related facilities as may be required by
Contractor to carry out its obligation.
