Background:
The Hennepin County Department of Community Corrections and Rehabilitation (DOCCR) issued an RFP last year for sexual health outpatient treatment services. The RFP sought proposals from qualified providers to deliver a comprehensive treatment program for the priority population: male and female identifying persons, convicted of a sexual offense and under DOCCR’s jurisdiction.
The goals of treatment services are to prevent future sexual abuse and criminal sexual conduct, to have clients successfully adhere to treatment related probation requirements, and successfully complete the treatment program.
Under this Agreement, Alpha Service Industries, Inc., d/b/a Alpha Emergence Behavioral Health (AEBH), will provide client assessment, individual and group counseling, and intensive individual therapy. AEBH also provides an intensive outpatient program treatment five days a week along with case management services that address chemical and mental health needs. Program goals are to improve skills such as distress tolerance, communication, and emotional regulation.
