The provider will provide Two (2) Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor’s (CADC’s) to perform work inside the Clackamas County Jail (CCJ). The CADC must be able to pass a comprehensive criminal background check performed by the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office. Groups will be conducted in the housing area of CCJ with direct contact with Adults in Custody (AIC’s) without other staff present. The County will provide and/or approve all open-ended curriculum to be used. Curriculum must be evidence-based and widely accepted within the criminal justice / behavioral health community. Fidelity must be followed in all groups and interaction with AIC’s to ensure best practices are being followed. It is anticipated the CADC will facilitate evidence-based groups for three and a half hours per day, to include group preparation and follow-up documentation. Groups will not be co-facilitated and 1 CADC will be assigned to work with the men’s program and the other CADC to work with the women’s program. The provider will provide to the County attendance records which shall include: a record of which groups were facilitated and who attended each group, the number of hours of group facilitation and level of participation by each AIC. Documentation will be recorded daily and submitted to the County monthly or as requested. In addition to group facilitation, the CADC will also conduct one to two American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) assessments per day inside CCJ. ASAM assessments will be assigned by the County and conducted in a private room with the AIC and the evaluator. No other staff will be present during the assessment. Documentation of the assessment will be provided to the County within one to two business days.
