Type and Scope of services to be performed:

The Crime Prevention and Control Commission (CPCC) has funded the Second Chance Center in the City program since April of 2021. Since that time, the program has served the diverse needs of a rapidly growing client base, always with an eye to balancing empathy with financial efficiency to ensure the most beneficial outcome for our clients and the Denver community. At the end of 2021, the program consisted of:1 Full-time Deputy Executive Director, 1 Full time Lead Care Manager, 2 Full-time Care Managers, 1 Full-time Care Manager/Peer Navigator, 1 Full-time Employment Navigator, 1 Full-time Data Specialist, 1 Full-time Administrative Assistant; Totaling 8 staff.

 

The S.C.C. in the City program has quickly taken root in the City and County of Denver’s incarcerated community, as well as with their families and loved ones who are counting on us to be there to help their fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters, make their transition back to the more comprehensive Denver and Colorado community. From April 7th, 2021, to December 31st, 2021, the Second Chance Center in the City program served a total of 421 unique individuals with a variety of services tailored to their needs. However, housing remains the most consistently urgent of those needs. Some notable achievements include successfully finding employment for 30 of our clients and successfully helping 57 clients avoid homelessness by finding and providing funding for housing. In this time, our program has provided 2,864 individual services for an average of 6.8 services per client. These services amount to 844 service hours, or an average of 2 service hours per client. Additionally, the S.C.C. in the City program distributes donated food and clothing daily, and our staff is trained by H.A.R.M. in Narcan administration so that we can, when necessary, provide emergency drug overdose care until the medical team arrives. The CPCC recommends that the funding continues for this program, with a planned transition to be funded and managed by the Department of Safety.
