Residential Substance Abuse Treatment Program
Florida Department of Law Enforcement
E. Program Description
1. Begin with an executive-style summary describing the project to be funded with RSA T
funds. Start below.
Problem Identification/Target Group
Over seventy per cent of the inmates currently housed in the Monroe County Detention
center have charges related to addiction. These inmates need help with addiction, anger
issues, domestic violence, job and housing placements, educational and literacy assistance,
parenting skills, life skills, co-occurring mental health problems, psychological referrals, and
pharmacological assessments. The Jail Incarceration Program (JIP) provides this help. It has
a positive impact on the inmates and has reduced recidivism at the Monroe County Detention
Center.
Solution
The Jail Incarceration Program is an in house substance abuse treatment program. It
began in 1997, funded by a Byrne Grant, and has served approximately 900 inmates with an
overall recidivism rate of thirty-five per cent compared to a seventy per cent recidivism rate for
the jail. It provides the administrative and case management services as mandated by Florida
Administrative Code 10-E16.
Under the RSAT grant, the program has been expanded and enhanced. This year, the
program will serve approximately 150 inmates. The inmates (male) are housed in a separate
dorm with its own recreation area. All the inmates in the program are screened to determine
special needs. They have liaison and advocacy to help them get treatment in JIP or another
appropriate program. All participants have individualized treatment plans that plan are
reviewed monthly and adjustments are made if needed. The program includes special
counseling in anger management, domestic abuse, parenting classes, conflict resolution, grief
work, life skills, and job skills. Inmates are screened and referred for mental health counseling,
educational and/or vocational training, transitional housing, aftercare, work release, and
medical assistance. This helps increase success in the recovery process and decreases the
criminal activity associated with substance abuse.
Referrals will be made for inmates that need English as a second language, literacy skill
improvements, and GED classes. Life Skills will address how to find a place to live, how to
open a bank account, how to make a budget, and basic nutrition. Job Skills will address how
to look for work, fill out a job application, interview, and obtain a job (work release if possible).
Educational assistance will help obtain educational assistance, provide basic communication
skills, computer literacy, and how to mentor. The Substance Abuse counseling will continue in
its present form. The emphasis on cognitive behavioral therapy and rational emotive therapy
(RET) is its backbone. The twelve-step approach, life skills, art/music therapy, and group
therapy provide a well-rounded approach.

Section III
SFY 2004

Residential Substance Abuse Treatment Program
Florida Department of Law Enforcement
Enhancement for the existing program will be the additional of "Touchstones."
Touchstones discussion groups are aimed at developing verbal skills, active listening, using
evidence to support an opinion and the development of careful, respectful and yet critical
consideration of the opinions of others. Its central purpose is to enable people who are
products of a technological world to become responsible, thoughtful inhabitants of that world.
The texts are chosen from Western classical thought because they are characteristically
abstract and impersonal and allow the group to bring their own experience to bear.
Touchstones is selected as an adjunct to therapy to see if the inmates could follow the
arguments of the reading, present their own ideas in a logical fashion and deal with conflict in
a dialectical manner rather than using old patterns of behavior involving unsubstantiated
opinions reinforced by acting out behavior. From a therapeutic point of view, it is an excellent
way to reduce aggression and expand cognitive skills.
The Detention center continues to operate a farm and petting zoo that is maintained by
inmates in JIP. They receive a degree in Animal Husbandry. It is very therapeutic to work with
the animals and to give something while getting no tangible reward. This is a concept new to
many of the inmates.
Treatment is a minimum of six months with the possibility of lasting one year. Aftercare
is six months and is provided by the Care Center for Mental Health in Key West.
Objectives
The number of inmates expected to complete the program is 100.
It is also projected that:
70% of the inmates served will complete the Aftercare Program.
95% of the inmates served in the program will remain drug free while participating.
70% of the inmates in the aftercare program will not test positive for drugs/alcohol.
75% of the inmates will not violate probation during aftercare and
65% of the inmates served will not return to jail during the first year after release.
The program will have two substance abuse counselors who serve as
co u nse 10 rs/ coo rd i nato rs.
There will be two additional fulltime counselors and two part time counselors. All staff will have
a strong background in substance abuse counseling with appropriate certification or work
towards certification. Staff expertise has a direct impact on the program efficiency.
Random drug testing is conducted weekly with all inmates being tested at random. The
program coordinators further evaluate the program's effectiveness by tracking the inmates
who have completed the program through probation and checking for any new arrests in
Monroe County and nationwide. For recidivism purposes, a sample of the program's inmates
is compared to a random sample of inmates who received no treatment.
The Program Coordinators will review all the testing and screening of the inmates and make
the final selection of appropriate inmates to participate in JIP.

8. Mental Health Counseling - To help inmates in the program with life problems. This is
provided by the Mental Health Counselors on staff as requested by the inmates or as deemed
necessary by the counselors.

anger and impulsiveness. This is conducted as a series of classes using Rational Emotive and
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to illustrate new ways of behaving. This class is ongoing and
conducted by the Mental Health Counselors who are trained in Anger Management.
11. Work Activities - To help inmates develop a work ethic while saving some money to help
them get established upon release. After ninety days in the program and if they are eligible,
inmates may work when they are not attending the program. They are referred by the staff and
screened by the jail's work release specialist.
12. Job Skills Development - to help inmates develop personally and professionally while
learning life management skills. This is conducted by the counselors and includes computer

13. Job Placement - To help inmates have a job when they are released. Those inmates
already on Work Release will have employment. Others can be referred to Job Services and
Vocational Rehabilitation by the counselors in the program at the time of release.
14. Aftercare Services - These services will be given priority and will be provided by the Care
Center for Mental Health, and consist of group and individual counseling. Aftercare will last
three to six months.
15. Structured Leisure Time - To promote healthy activities and open-mindedness, explore
individual talents and creativity, encourage conversation and social interaction. Counselors
will alternate activities, providing access to clay, painting, origami, drawing, collage, finger
painting, and computer art. Music will be presented ranging from country to classical to rock to
musicals. There will be movies for pleasure and movies about life. Educational board games
will be encouraged. These activities will be weekly and ongoing for the entire twenty four to
twenty six weeks.
16. Leadership Training - to promote growth of a positive, productive identity, to enhance self
image and to promote higher levels of moral reasoning. This will be conducted by counselors
trained to conduct MRT (Moral Reconation Therapy). The groups will meet weekly for the
duration of the program. Inmates will spend the first two weeks reading the introduction to the
MRT Workbook, and then will present a step every two weeks. Once a month a film will be
shown to reinforce the concepts.
17. Mentoring - to help inmates understand that they can change and lead healthy productive
lives. Once a month former successful clients will come to tell their story. There will be weekly
AA/NA meetings to help the inmates connect to outside members of the program. The
Program Coordinator will facilitate.
18. Parenting Training - To help inmates develop better parenting skills and to help them
understand what parenting they may not have received. A Life Skills Counselor will conduct
these ten-week classes, which have been approved by the Department of Children and
Families.

19. Cognitive Restructuring - To help the inmates understand the disease of addiction and
help then see what change they need to make to break their destructive patterns. Rational
Emotive Therapy will be used by all the counselors. The following schedule will apply:
Weeks 1,2,3: Understanding Personal Belief System
Weeks 5,6: Identifying Impairing Thoughts
Weeks 7-16: Changing Our Belief System about emotional ranging from Anger to Grief.
Weeks 17-20Negative Beliefs That Trigger Relapse
Weeks 20-24Building Self Esteem
20. Financial Management - To help inmates manage their income and live within their means.
This will be part of a Life Skills program that incorporates budgeting, balancing a checkbook,
how to open a checking account, how to establish or reestablish credit, as well as other money
issues. This will be a special class conducted by the counselors using videos and workbooks.
21. Criminal Thinking and Addictive Thinking (Other) - To help inmates understand how they
think about the world in general and why they do things that bring them to jail. This will be
conducted using a series of workbooks, videos, and group discussions. This is conducted in a
classroom setting by counselors.
22. Relationship Issues - To help inmates develop healthier relationships. Communication
styles and skills will be emphasized by a Life Skills Counselor who will conduct these group
sessions. Some inmates may receive individual help.
23. Court Liaison - To help inmates receive appropriate treatment that directly addresses their
needs. This is accomplished by assessing the inmates individually and matching the program
to their needs. It also involves advising the court if additional or different treatment is better
suited, and advocating for treatment rather than prison. This is ongoing and handled by the
Program Coordinator.
24. Touchstones will be held weekly in groups of 12 inmates. The groups will have inmate
facilitators after the initial groups. The counselors will serve as observers after the initial
groups.
The inmates will follow the Touchstones format and introduce a topic from the selections
available. The actual participants will change as new inmates come into the program. The
group starts with a reading of the selected text and a second silent reading. The group will
break into 3 or 4 subgroups and are charged with coming up with an opening question. After
the group reassembles, they will choose the question from the several proposed and the
discussion begins. This will continue for the rest of the hour and is then concluded by the
facilitator at a good point to break. The text is followed closely as the aim is to understand the
argument of the author so to substantiate individual arguments pro and con. This format will
help the group members develop their listening skills and learn to respect other opinions

Sole Source Justification for Services and Equipment Narrative
1. Presently, the Jail Incarceration Program (JIP) operates an in-house substance
abuse treatment program. This program began in 1997 with a Byrne Grant that ended
in October 2001. That program served approximately eight-hundred inmates and ended
with a thirty percent recidivism rate as compared to a seventy per cent recidivism rate
for inmates in general.
Under the RSAT grant the program was expanded and enhanced. The inmates (male)
are housed in a separate dorm. Those who volunteer for the program have liaison and
advocacy if needed to help them get treatment either in this program or another
treatment program deemed appropriate. All inmates in the program are screened to
ascertain any special needs and an individualized treatment plan is written for them.
The treatment is reviewed every thirty days and updated as needed. The program
outlined for them will include any special counseling in the areas of anger management,
domestic abuse, parenting classes, life skills, and mental health counseling. They will
also be screened and referred for educational and/or vocational training, transitional
housing, aftercare, work release, and medical assistance. This helps increase the
likelihood of success in recovery and decrease the criminal activity associated with
substance abuse.
The emphasis on cognitive behavioral therapy and rational emotive therapy is the
backbone of the program. The twelve-step approach, life skills, and art/music therapy
provide a well-rounded approach to the treatment of addiction. An outline of the format
is included as well as a schedule for the daily activities.
2. The Care Center for Mental Health has operated a similar program, funded by a
Byrne Grant and matching funds from Monroe County, at the Detention Center for four
years. They have the expertise, personnel, equipment, and procedures in place to
continue this type of program. The only other potential providers are the Guidance
Clinic of the Middle Keys and the Guidance Clinic of the Upper Keys, approximately fifty
and seventy-five miles away, respectively. The funding of the program under the Byrne
Grant was overseen and recommended by the Substance Abuse Policy Advisory
Board, which reviewed program proposals and made funding recommendations to the
Monroe County Board of County Commissioners. No other proposals for this type of
program at the Detention Center were received by the Substance Abuse Policy
Advisory Board in recent years. At the beginning of the first year of RSA T funding,
February 2001, the Care Center was the only provider ready to "hit the ground running"
with this program.
3. The contract period is from March 15, 2004 through March 14, 2005. We believe
that several months would be required to find a suitable replacement contractor to
provide this service, two or three months for that contractor to hire staff, and there is a
good chance that none would be available.
4. The present staff and program coordinator have developed a program designed to
treat each client based on their individual needs. As a result of Substance Abuse, most
of the clients have lost their ability to function in society. This program addresses the
clients' addiction to drugs and alcohol through the Relapse Prevention and Steps. It
also addresses the psychological problems of behavior, personality problems, lack of

socialization, and criminal attitude through the Moral Reconation Therapy, Anger
Management, Parenting Classes, Domestic Abuse Information, and Rational Emotive
Therapy.
Art and Music Therapy help alleviate stress and develop self-esteem. The Life Skills,
Work Relapse, and Farm Detail offer the clients a chance to re-integrate and transition
back into the mainstream of the community. The Aftercare helps the clients overcome
problems as they occur, without returning to their usual coping means of using drugs
and alcohol. This provider has a proven track record of reducing recidivism. The staff is
already trained and in place, as is the program.
The Touchstones program will be added in this coming grant year, and is described in
the application narrative.
5. All relevant points in support of this sole source award have been covered above.
6. Monroe County believes that the award of these grant and matching funds to The
Care Center for Mental Health to provide this program is in the best interest of the
subgrant recipient and the implementing agency.
