Section C – Description/Specifications/Statement of Work

C.1 Agency Background. The mission of the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA) is to increase public safety, prevent crime, reduce recidivism, and support the fair administration of justice in close collaboration with the community. CSOSA is responsible for the supervision of all probationers and parolees held under the authority of any United States or District of Columbia statute, or any other lawful authority and entrusted to the District. CSOSA has been mandated to provide comprehensive sex offender treatment services to offenders (hereinafter referred to as Offenders) who have been ordered to undergo such treatment by the courts, either as part of a sentence or pre-sentence, or as a condition of probation or parole.

C.2 Objective. The objective of this purchase order is to obtain sexual offender assessment and treatment services for Offenders with an order from a releasing authority for sex offense-related assessment and treatment which includes comprehensive, outpatient sex offender screening, assessment, and treatment services.

C.3 Scope of Work. Treatment services may include assessment, individual counseling, group counseling, relapse prevention, maintenance and monitoring polygraph testing, discharge/aftercare planning, and other essential services as required. Sex offender treatment is intended to assist the Offender in managing his/her sexually offensive behavior, and to decrease the risk of re-offending.

Specifically, the Contractor shall:

a. Develop therapeutic interventions specific to the Offender, such as approaches to increase prospect of Offender successfully completing treatment, addressing criminal involvement, and cooperation with criminal justice requirements. This requires establishment of a close working relationship with the Community Service Officer (CSO) responsible for supervising each Offender.

b. Coordinate, cooperate and work with CSOs, utilizing a team approach for case planning, treatment intervention, and case monitoring.

c. Hold monthly case meetings with CSO as well as other meetings and interventions as deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), to include a minimum of one (1) team meeting with all the Contractor's direct service staff and the CSO, Supervisory Community Supervision Officer (SCSO), and Sex Offender Treatment Specialist (SOTS).

d. Comply with sex offender standards of practices and evidence-based approaches such as those published by the Center for Sexual Offender Management (CSOM) and the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers (ATSA). All assessment and treatment services should be evidence-based and specific to meet the unique needs of the Offender.

e. Develop and implement written guidelines and procedures for assessment and treatment services, available for review by CSOSA at the Post-Award Meeting, including:

(1) Referral criteria (including any exclusionary factors such as medical or mental health conditions).

(2) The objectives of the program.

(3) The criteria used to measure Offender’s progress towards attainment of objectives.

(4) A description of the diagnostic and treatment modalities utilized by the program.

(5) A description of all therapeutic activities provided, including individual and group counseling sessions.

(6) Safety precautions and procedures.

(7) Crisis intervention procedures.

(8) Medical emergency procedures.

(9) Patient's rights and rules of conduct.

(10) Personnel policies.

(11) Methods for addressing Offender non-compliance.

(12) Methods for investigating and handling Offender grievances.

(13) Methods for investigating unusual incidents.

(14) Polygraph methods and testing procedures.

C.4 Referral Authorization.

C.4.1 The Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) shall provide a referral authorization to the Contractor for each Offender to be assessed and/or treated. The referral authorization shall contain a billing authorization document; referral date; Notice of Action (NOA) or Judgment and Commitment (J&C) order; Special Conditions; Offender identification information, a summary of the offender’s arrest and conviction history and supervision contact information. The referral authorization packet shall also include the psychosexual assessment and sexual history polygraph examination report, if available. All existing documents used in the assessment and treatment process, such as pre-sentence investigation reports, will be provided to the contractor in the referral packet electronically, as well.

C.4.2 The referral authorization is the only document that makes CSOSA financially responsible for Offender services provided by the Contractor. No verbal or other authorization are recognized or allowed.

CSOSA is not responsible for Offender services provided without a referral authorization, or for any Offender services provided that exceed the treatment duration, or the maximum dollar amount authorized for the treatment duration.

C.5.1.3 The Contractor shall hold an initial meeting with each Offender.
