Shea Title: Colorado Division of Criminal Justice Evaluation of the Colorado Short Term Intensive Residential Remediation Treatment (STIRRT) Programs Summary: The Short Term Intensive Residential (STIRRT) program is intended to provide 14 days of residential substance abuse treatment designed to stabilize an individual and then provide outpatient, community-based services for six to nine months following discharge from the residential component. The program is offered at one of four Colorado locations: Arapahoe House (Denver), Crossroads Turning Point (Pueblo), Mesa County Community Corrections (Grand Junction), and Larimer County Community Corrections (Fort Collins). The program is considered a “last chance” for offenders who would otherwise go to prison. Those eligible include those referred by probation, parole, Treatment Alternatives to Street Crime (TASC), Denver Drug Court, and community corrections. This evaluation includes 1,324 individuals who participated in the STIRRT program between January 1, 2008 and June 30, 2009. FINDINGS • Most participants (91%) successfully completed the 14-day residential component of STIRRT. • Less than half (42.3%) of successful STIRRT discharges participated in the continuing care component of the program. • Recidivism, measured as new county or district court filing within 12 months of discharge from residential treatment, was approximately 25% regardless of participation in continuing care. This analysis included 296 individuals who participated in continuing care and were at risk of recidivating for 12 months. o In comparison, in FY 2008, 63.7% of community corrections clients (diversion and transition combine) successfully completed the program and 14.6% recidivated within 12 months.

Author: Alvarez, Ada Title: Clinical Programs Evaluation - Phase 1 Summary: I was hired by the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services (NCDS), Research Division, to conduct internal analysis of the programs offered at NDCS. This report uses various research methods to measure the progress and effectiveness of clinical programs offered by NDCS. The process includes three phases. The first consists of evaluating qualitative data. Inmates and staff were interviewed to obtain a holistic perspective of the clinical programs. Phase Two will incorporate quality assurance and data collection. Lastly, Phase Three will be quantitative analyses where I will use statistical modeling to assess effectiveness of clinical programs. Over a six-month period I evaluated the following programs: Violence Reduction Program (VRP), iHeLP (Inpatient Sex Offender Program), oHeLP (Outpatient Sex Offender Program), and Residential Treatment Community (RTC). Throughout this evaluation process I gathered information about topics such as the housing unit, educational level of inmates, intensity of program, training for staff, progress assessment for inmates, and parole readiness. This report encompasses the voice of inmates, clinical staff, and administration on the current status of the clinical programs and aims to identify why the programs are in their current situation and what their goals are. The key recommendations presented in this report include improving the environment for the inpatient programs, decreasing programming waitlist for screening and entering programs, implement strategies to overcome educational barriers, and addressing communication gaps within the behavioral health team.
