Qualifications Behavioral Health Qualifications We design healing spaces that elevate the human spirit . Our leadership is by example, not by resume or personalities. We promote the breaking down of silos and designing as a team where information is shared across disciplines. CPL has the respect of the design and construction communities because of our continued success on projects of this type and size. As a full-service firm, collaboration is at the heart of what we do. We combine the expertise of various disciplines to approach projects from every angle. We will put the right people in the right place for your project’s success. This project requires a team with a track-record of success in working together. You need a team that has the capacity and experience to manage technically complex projects at multiple locations on the same site with different stakeholders and operational organizations; one that keeps your projects on budget and schedule, who are experts in behavioral healthcare designs, and will make your project a priority. Our team has the experience you need. As Principal, Adam Chahulski will see that appropriate resources are assigned and overall project goals are being met. Day-to-day management of projects and communication will be handled by Robin Washco, our designated project manager. All requests and required services will either be completed by Robin or delegated to the appropriate team member. Representation at all meetings will include team members with the appropriate level of understanding and expertise. Project Approach Our experience informs our design approach. Differentiators We are disruptors. We believe the way we work can add meaning and value to the world. Creativity inspires change, and sometimes coloring outside the lines brings a new perspective. The small details matter within the bigger picture. Above all, we believe collaboration is the best way forward. Our healthcare design philosophy is grounded in our commitment to patient-centered design that is operationally efficient, fiscally responsible, and supports the needs of patients, families, and the caregivers that serve them. Patient-centered design is the common thread that unifies our work. Patient-centered design requires a holistic approach that considers the outcomes for patients, the experience of care-givers, and particularly for CDFs...safety and comfort. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 | 5 2. Qualifications Collaboration We are nimble enough to respond quickly and deliver a project that is efficient, cost effective, and in alignment with your expectations. Our dedicated team of 20+ healthcare planners and architects across North Carolina have experience working on Behavioral projects across the state—where we are influencing and changing patient environments through evidence based design. We boast 30+ years’ experience working with DHSR’s planning and construction division, and we understand the rules and regulations under which these projects will be reviewed. Considerations The design of Crisis Diversion Facilities must be flexible and adaptable to acknowledge that our understanding of mental and behavioral health will continue to evolve and change the way we design. From the plan layout, down to the electrical outlets that are specified, the entire design needs to be cohesive. Details matter. In order to offer patients the sense of privacy and security, thoughtful program consideration will need to be given to private versus shared rooms, community areas, accessibility to staff, and openness of the environment. Engaging the community, local hospitals, and law enforcement agencies can go a long way in promoting a successful design of these types of facilities—ensuring care begins before a patient walks through the doors. CPL CREATIVE LABS Our team leverages state-of- the-art technology to better serve our clients. The CPL team utilizes BIM in conjunction with industry standard A/E applications such as 3D Studio Max, Sketch Up Pro, Lumion, Enscape and Adobe Creative Suite in order to generate presentation graphics and renderings. These are used to demonstrate potential design solutions using the same model that will be used to generate the construction documents and pricing documents. These engaging applications allow the client and user to be involved in the creation and development of the project design. We offer programs such as Mixed Reality, Renderings/ Animations and Reality Capturing capabilities. • Mixed Reality – Whether it be virtual (VR) or augmented reality (AR) these tools allow us to immerse our clients into the project early on • Renderings/Animations – As another means of project visualization our team uses a multitude of tools to produce renderings or animations to fit the project needs • Reality Capturing – Whether it be drones or laser scanning, accurately capturing the physical environment of any given site is important to project success.

An indication of your understanding of the project. North Carolina is experiencing increasing numbers of individuals in behavioral health crisis. Local hospital emergency departments (ED) and detention facilities are the most often used resources during these episodes of crisis. Local ED’s often do not have the capacity to treat persons with primary behavioral health needs resulting in individuals being “boarded” for several hours or even days before a placement can be located or the person is safe to be discharged. This ED stay sometimes occurs without effective assessment, treatment or linkage to the ongoing community services and support needed to prevent ED utilization for future psychiatric crises. The availability of other specialized community-based crisis services can assess, treat, and connect individuals more quickly to behavioral health specific resources which support an individual’s path to recovery. A number of individuals who commit crimes typically do so due to their unstable and untreated behavioral health concerns. This is often a direct result of a lack of medication and treatment options and/or lack of suitable community resources, supports or referrals. Charges, usually misdemeanor and nuisance type charges result in incarceration. This puts a strain on the local criminal justice and public safety entities, particularly law enforcement, detention centers and courts in Orange County. This strain has negative clinical, fiscal, and societal affects. In 2019, Orange County participated in a Sequential Intercept Mapping (SIM) exercise to determine current Behavioral Health resources and gaps. The SIM exercise resulted in creating a work group and sophisticated data collection resulting in the identification of needs and solutions. The data, current crisis continuum services, and identified gaps support the need for a robust crisis continuum to: • Provide a safe place for de-escalation and treatment including case management and linkage to the assessed level of care. This will occur as the preferred alternative to the jail or local emergency department. • Provide multiple levels of care within the Crisis Continuum in order to stabilize individuals. • Decreased delays in the initiation of treatment and increased engagement in the outpatient service array. The availability of other specialized community-based crisis services to support an individual’s path to recovery. A partnership and venture to develop crisis continuum services will succeed in paving the path toward creating a crisis center in Orange County to be the first line option and alternative to ED for persons with behavioral health crises. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 | 7 3. Scope and Timeline Guided by the shared mission, vision, and values of PACE—Passion, Accountability, Communication & Ethics—RHA’s service delivery and treatment philosophy are person-centered and focuses on the use of evidence-based practices through screening, assessment, treatments, staffing via credentialed positions, counseling, medications, safety and after care planning, and documentation. Operated by RHA, the proposed Behavioral Health Urgent Care (BHUC) will become the primary access point for children, adolescents, and adults in crisis in Orange County and will become a part of their statewide array of mental health, substance use, and intellectual/ developmental disability services. This BHUC will be co-located among a full continuum of services at the proposed site. The location of this facility is a central component of the proposed plan to decrease ED utilization in Orange County and increase access to and utilization of services for members of the community seeking crisis support, routine care, and/or community-based services. The BHUC will be staffed by a multi-disciplinary team that includes physicians and extenders, licensed clinicians, registered nurses (RN), qualified professionals (QP), certified peer support specialists (CPSS), and administrative support. The use of certified peer support specialists is an integral part of RHA’s successful service delivery and marks its commitment to promoting a recovery-oriented system of care within its service array. Whereas the program will be staffed primarily by RHA employees, contractual relationships may be developed for medical and licensed clinical staff, as well as security officers via an Orange County Law Enforcement agency. Prescriber staff will have routine hours on- site, with 24/7/365 on-call availability. Telemedicine equipment will be available for situations when telehealth is needed; however, clinical services will be delivered face-to face whenever possible. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 | 8 3. Scope and Timeline Everyone who presents at the BHUC, regardless of age or disability, will participate in an initial evaluation to identify their primary needs and establish a preliminary treatment plan. Those who are identified as presenting with routine needs will be offered a Comprehensive Clinical Assessment (CCA), which is the golden thread gateway to diagnosis and level of care determinations resulting in appropriate service referrals and linkages. Outpatient Services will be available on the same day for individuals presenting Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00AM and 8:00PM, or the following business day for individuals presenting after hours or on weekends. Meanwhile, an individual who presents with Urgent or Emergent needs will receive a CCA and/or a Crisis Assessment, a referral to the appropriate level of outpatient care, and/ or will have access to one of the BHUC’s 23-hour observation bays. This portion of the program will not only allow for further assessment, observation, treatment, and safety planning while the individual is working to manage his or her recovery, but also grants the individual access to CPSS staff who can offer additional support, coaching, and connection to recovery and treatment resources. The Facility-Based Crisis (FBC) and Non- Hospital Medical Detox component of the proposed program will be comprised of a sixteen- bed unit for adults with mental health and detox from substances in Orange County. The unit will be co-located with the BHUC, alongside a full array of outpatient services. Following their participation in a BHUC assessment, individuals in need of more intensive residential support will be referred to the FBC as an alternative to inpatient or hospital-based care. Historically, individuals seeking behavioral health crisis services through the ED have encountered long wait times in their efforts to receive inpatient care and have then experienced lengthy hospital stays. The BHUC program, in contrast, enables individuals to not only access FBC/Detox services more quickly, but also engages them in preventative and outpatient services, reducing the need for transfers to the hospital. The immediate linkage option from BHUC to FBC/Detox includes medical clearances to prevent the individual having to enter an ED for behavioral health assessment and treatment. Additionally, due to medical clearance being provided on BHUC site, external referrals to other behavioral health/detox units can be made without the person entering the local ED. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 | 9 3. Scope and Timeline Under the proposed plan, law enforcement will utilize the proposed new location for all behavioral health drop-offs as the facility is proposed to be an IVC designated facility. With the additional expansion of co-located services and continued education and training for law enforcement officers. Supporting individuals in their efforts to remain in the community and out of the hospital ED is a primary objective of the proposed plan. As noted previously, Orange County has identified a clear need for increased behavioral health capacity aimed at the expansion of the crisis continuum to more effectively stabilize and support individual in crisis. The co-location of these programs will allow for increased coordination, communication, and integration, bringing together programs that are now provided at multiple locations throughout the community). RHA has demonstrated success with crisis service delivery, as well as after-care referral and coordination of care with other providers. RHA staff will continue to work closely with other service providers to ensure ongoing communication and collaboration throughout the community to ensure active engagement and successful outcomes for individuals served. 3b. Descriptions of similar projects that the firm has completed. RHA’s C3356 program located in Buncombe County was created and operational in 2016. This center hosts a Crisis Continuum for Buncombe and surrounding counties including a behavioral health urgent care, walk-in crisis services, a Facility Based Crisis and non-hospital detox unit and a peer living room. This center also operates robust outpatient and Community Based services. C3356 has shown a reduction of Law Enforcement and First Responder Drop-offs and an increase in individuals entering Crisis Services as an alternative to emergency departments. RHA’s participation and development of a single facility for Crisis Continuum services has been replicated throughout North Carolina as a solution to community needs. RHA has hosted other behavioral health providers, hospitals, communities and National providers and assisted in the understanding of this model and provided tours as well as informational sessions. RHA’s deep rooted experience in this work has resulted in policies and procedures that support individuals and communities. In 2017 RHA and CPL completed construction and began programming and operating the Foothills Regional Treatment Center in Lenoir, NC targeting Caldwell, Alexander and McDowell counties as priority counties and serving surrounding counties in need. This program houses a Facility Based Crisis and detox units with robust community-based programming and outpatient services including a crisis walk in center in the same building. The program has strong partnerships with local opioid response teams, regional hospitals, and local law enforcement. Since 2010, RHA has operated a Tier II Behavioral Health Crisis Center in Burlington, NC and expanded to a Tier III Behavioral Health Urgent Care and Law Enforcement drop-off center.

All services supported by this Facility are expected to be covered under BHUC-4 and FBC regulations2. This document is organized as follows: A. Front Entrance/Waiting Areas. B. Rear Entrance. C. BHUC Clinical Areas. D. Adult FBC Areas. E. Medical Areas. F. Facility Security. G. Outpatient Service Areas. H. General Purpose Areas. I. Community Partner Offices/Workspace. J. Communications Infrastructure. Note. The text below describes a facility that can be a one story or two-story building. If a two-story building, considerations should be given to separating a BHUC facility on the first floor and FBC/secure space on second floor with direct access to rear entrance. Main pharmacy could also be placed on second floor with a means to support the outpatient pharmacy on the first floor. A. Front Entrance/Waiting Areas • Front entrance provides access point for general public on a 24/7/365 basis. This is the initial point of contact for access to BHUC services. • Reception, waiting areas, and clinical space have a “living room” environment for a calm reception of patients and initial contact with peer specialists and clinical staff. • Beyond front door reception area, path splits into separate routes for adults and minors. Each includes in sequence: o Security check and storage of personal belongings not allowed into Facility. o Triage and central administration. o Waiting rooms, which lead to clinical areas for patients. 1 The April 22, 2021 report prepared by the Orange County Behavioral Task Force Crisis-Diversion Facility Subcommittee contains specific recommendations for needed services. This document describes a Facility physical layout and infrastructure for delivering those services. It has been developed by the Crisis-Diversion Facility Subcommittee and an associated Design Workgroup comprised of subject matter experts in Facility design and operation. 2 BHUC-4: Behavioral Health Urgent Care, Tier 4. FBC: Facility Based Crisis. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 2 • Waiting areas are separate for adults and minors (cohorts of interest: adults, adolescents, children 15 years of age and younger). May need visual separation between adolescents and children under 15 years of age in waiting area for minors. • Adjacent to the public access reception area are outpatient pharmacy (see details in Section E) and resource center (see details in Section G). Access to general office space is also available via front entrance (see Section H). B. Rear Entrance • Rear entrance will require easy access from street for EMS, LE, other emergency services. • Secure rear entrance with two Sally Ports and a separate entry door for access to Facility in lieu of Sally Port. • Supporting security measures include (also see facility security, Section F): o Two seclusion room with restraints. o Area for secure patient handoff to clinical staff. o Search area. o Area for storage of personal belongings and contraband. • Office and break areas for EMS and LE personnel with access to drink and snack food. • Laboratory sample pick up (see Item E). C. BHUC Clinical Areas • Clinical areas for observation, assessment, stabilization (living room/calming environment). • Centrally-located nursing center from which oversight and services support both adult and minors. • Space for non-hospitalization detox. Includes space to initiate emergency SUD treatment/MAT in anticipation of transfer: multi-day stays are anticipated (See Section D). • Area to support sobering services. (Also see G. General Purpose Areas, Multi-use Room.) • Offices for clinical staff to confer with patients and arrange referrals to third-party facilities including open referral to UNC Hospitals. • Specially designed sensory space to best serve IDD or ASD patients. • Space for case managers/peer support specialists to work with patients, arrange for a discharge plan, and follow up after discharge including peer support day area and small group meeting room(s). • Because Facility Based Crisis (FBC) space cannot be used for minors, space is required for patients under age 18 who may be awaiting transfer to third-party services but cannot be transferred within 23-hour service interval. Note: Above assumes detox can be started in BHUC (instead of FBC area) for adolescents in anticipation of transfer to third-party facility. D. Adult FBC Areas • FBC patient rooms (beds) for patients who may require multi-day stays, no patients <18 years of age. Distinct uses include: o Multi-day stays for respite and awaiting transfer to third-party facilities. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 3 o Rooms for IVC patients. (Assume minors will be served in BHUC until transfer to third-party facility, if necessary.). o Patient rooms for short-term services including initiation of services that will be continued after transfer to third-party facilities (e.g. MAT). o Secure patient rooms for patients who are agitated. o Secure patient rooms for justice-involved individuals including adjacent space for LE personnel who may need to accompany these patients 3. Includes those patients awaiting forensic assessments and those transferred from OC Detention Center. • If need cannot be supported in BHUC area and if allowed by regulation, space for holdover of minors who cannot be transferred due to lack of beds in third-party facilities within the 23-hour service interval (See Section C). • Nurses station to serve and observe FBC patient rooms. • Secure rooms are visually separated from other patient beds to maintain a safe and calm environment for patients not requiring higher level of security. E. Medical Areas • Medical Examination and Treatment. Space for examination rooms and small medical staff to provide “urgent care” type medical services, conduct point of service laboratory tests, and take samples for analysis by outside laboratory. Accessible directly from rear entrance area and accessible from clinical areas within Facility. • Inpatient Pharmacy. Pharmacy located in the facility to serve patients and provide medicines upon discharge from Facility. Support outpatient pharmacy (see below). Space for pharmacy staff and secure storage. • Outpatient Pharmacy. Outpatient pharmacy (pick up window) located near and accessible from front entrance to support patients on an outpatient basis. Outpatient pharmacy supported by inpatient pharmacy located elsewhere in Facility (maybe adjacent). • Laboratory Services. Point of service testing and sample collection conducted in medical area. Sample pick up by third-party laboratory courier is located at rear entrance. F. Facility Security • The workgroup believes security personnel located in the Facility is a necessary and reasonable. To the extent that security personnel are present, keeping a low profile to maintain a calming, safe environment for all patients is desirable. • Locate most of security personnel away from eyes of general population entering via front entrance and those in BHUC clinical areas to achieve a balance that provides safety and presents a calming environment for all patients and the public. • Space for Facility security personnel should be located such that security personnel can observe entire space via security video and sound. o For example, this may be space located adjacent to the front desk but not within the front desk area. 3 Details about accompanying LE personnel for justice-involved individuals vs. transfer to Facility security has yet to be determined. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 4 o Located to maintain a capability for immediate response at front desk, waiting areas, clinical areas (open and secure areas), and rear entrance. • Facility staff must have capability to call security for immediate response at all locations. • Area for security staff breaks (with coffee, snack food, and drinks) can be shared with other staff break areas. Security staff space also includes lockers for personal belonging and storage for supplies including weapons storage as necessary. • Direct access to secure space (see Section D) from rear entrance without traverse of other clinical and public areas of the facility. When security personnel are working in the rear entrance area space should accommodate safe transfer of patients to Facility clinical staff in either the FBC or BHUC areas. Note: To date, Facility security staffing and operational plans have not been finalized. In keeping with the idea of having a low-profile security presence in the Facility, maintaining a safe environment will incorporate a peer specialist first approach. That is, using peer specialists who are trained to work with agitated patients and who can employ de-escalation methods. These peer specialists are expected to work closely with patients at point of arrival, during their stay in the Facility, and upon discharge and follow-up. The level of Facility security that will be necessary to back up the peer specialists is yet to be determined. G. Outpatient Service Areas • Separate space to provide outpatient services with a focus on child outpatient services. • Outpatient services may include partial hospitalization program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) services. • These programs are intended to bridge gaps in services especially for minors with a focus on community-based services. Note: Inclusion of outpatient services to augment crisis services have yet to be made final. This space is generally considered to be adjacent to but not within the BHUC/FBC space. H. General Purpose Areas • Multi-use Room. A large multi-use room for general use and to support training programs for Facility staff and other closely aligned stakeholders. Space capable of being partitioned for separate, simultaneous use by multiple groups. Need to be able to convert into space for use as sobering center to handle periodic surge in demand for this service. • Outdoor space or courtyard for patients. • Recreational space for social activities. • Resource Center/Call Center accessible from front entrance and serves as a library/resource center for general public. Resource Center may be staffed by volunteers or paid staff who provide literature and contact information for all BH-related services and support programs that are available to OC residents including County services, UNC Services, private services and clinics, and residential treatment options whether or not they are located in Orange County. Resource center may include access to legal services (e.g., legal aid) regarding insurance, psychiatric advanced directives (PADs), or other matters. • Staff area for breaks, storage of personal belongings, and provides coffee, drinks, and snacks. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 5 • Storage areas for clinical supplies. • Food service and laundry services for FBC patients and others with overnight stays. I. Community Partner Offices/Workspace • General office space for community groups and other stakeholders including, for example, school liaison, DSS, NAMI, FIT program, homeless programs coordination. • Office space for Alliance Health representative(s) for collaboration and to provide patient access to services and insurance. • Shared space for use by multiple groups (office hoteling). • Space for other service providers (e.g., ACT team). J. Specialized Communications Infrastructure • Two secure and private Video Conference Rooms with video conferencing equipment, printers, and fax machines. o One room primarily for clinical use including telemedicine and consultation with other stakeholders and community services. o One room primarily for criminal justice use with courtroom like set up to support criminal justice processes and access to magistrate. • Separate entrances to video conference rooms from both secure and open areas to extent possible. • Secure computer equipment with access to: o E-Warrants (replaces NC AWARE) for criminal justice processes. o OC Housing Helpline for housing assistance as part of discharge plan.

Herein we document our approach to developing these estimates. This report is organized into seven sections: • Executive Summary, • Overview, • Current Episodes, • Deflection Potential, • Results, • Demographic Breakdown, • Uncertainties. Executive Summary The Orange County Behavioral Health Task Force Crisis-Diversion Facility Subcommittee put forth recommendations for a BH crisis-diversion facility for Orange County. The subcommittee has described the services to be provided by the Facility, its alignment with various stakeholders in Orange County, and the number of individuals expected to be served by the Facility. Data have been compiled by the subcommittee working with various stakeholders who currently respond to BH crisis daily. These data have been used to quantify the number of cases expected to be served by the Facility. The current estimate is that the Facility will serve approximately 400 BH crisis cases per month. The facility will serve minors as well as adults and the current estimate is that cases involving minors will be approximately 23% of total cases or about 90 cases per month. While care has been taken to base these projections on hard data, the estimate also relies on professional judgement of subject matter experts where necessary. This report documents the data compiled and the approach used to make these projections. Overview In November 2019 the Orange County Behavioral Health Task Force (BHTF) formed a subcommittee to lead the process of developing a BH crisis center for Orange County. The first step in the subcommittee’s work was determining the scope of services that need to be provided to fill the gaps in Orange County’s current crisis response system. This process involved engaging all stakeholders who currently are involved in crisis response and asking what services are missing and, if available, would enable better responses and better outcomes for individuals in crisis. The subcommittee’s work led to the current plan for clinical and criminal justice services within a new crisis-diversion facility and plans for networking with community treatment and social services providers. The assessment described above asked stakeholders how and when they would use the Facility. To develop an estimate, or projection, of the number of individuals who are expected to be served by the Facility, these same stakeholders were asked to quantify their expectations. That is, how many individuals with whom they engage routinely do they believe could be deflected to the Facility in lieu of the current default approach, which often involves transport to the UNC Emergency Department. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 2 Current Episodes The first step toward determining the potential number of episodes that could be served by the new Facility, is determining how many BH episodes currently occur in Orange County each month. This information is displayed in Table 1. The episode types make up the column headers in Table 1. The term episodes includes various types of BH cases (mental health and substance use disorders) and includes: • Cases involving Mental Health (non-violent and potentially violent episodes), • Cases involving suicide or substance use disorders, • Involuntary Commitments (IVC) pursuant to Magistrate review and issuance of orders, • Nuisance and trespass cases involving homeless individuals, • Cases involving justice-involved individuals (court processes and detention center). Stakeholders make up the rows in Table 1. Stakeholders are the entities currently responding to BH episodes and provide services to help individuals in crisis. These stakeholders are the sources for the data shown in Table 1. These data sources are discussed in the Appendix along with notes about the information provided and how the data are is used to estimate the number of BH episodes currently occurring in Orange County. Table 1. Current Orange County Behavioral Health Episodes per Month (without Facility). Deflection Potential The next step in the process of determining the number of episodes that could be served by the new Facility is estimating the Deflect Rate. That is, of the number of episodes that currently occur, what percent could be deflected to the new Facility in lieu of being transported to the emergency department or magistrate/detention center.

There are two estimates for each stakeholder/episode type: a high deflection rate and a low deflection rate. The high and low values are used to bracket the possible outcomes and account for uncertainty in projecting how the new Facility will be integrated with stakeholder practices. It should be noted that for some stakeholders the deflection rate applies to the total number of episodes estimated to occur in Orange County each month. For other stakeholders, the deflection rate applies to the episodes most likely to be deflected to the new Facility. The notes for Table 2 add some of this explanation to the raw numbers. Figure 2. Deflection Estimates by Episode Category and Stakeholder. Notes 1. The nature of most IVC cases is that many could be deflected to the new Facility. However, of approximately 263 IVC cases occurring in Orange County each month (average of 2020 and 2021), 80% originate from within UNC. This leaves at most about 52 who could be deflected. Other factors further reduce this number (e.g., double counting, multiple orders per episode). Therefore, based on reconciling IVC data with UNC ED/PES data, we estimate that only about 20 IVC cases may be deflected (see Table 1) and of these we assume 100% are deflected to the Facility. 2. Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools and Orange County Public Schools estimated episodes to be 5% and 4% of student enrollment, respectively. So, the 100% represents the 5% value (the CHCCS estimate) and 80% represents the 4% value (the OCPS estimate). The 5% value is shown in Table 1. 3. Routine patients appearing at the UNC Emergency Department do not require a psychological assessment and are discharged from ED without being admitted. Diversion assumption is that they could be provided with a reference to the Facility where they may obtain services in the future. These cases are assumed to be include in the walk-in category and are not counted separately, thus a zero deflection rate. 4. For sobering cases, we only included sobering cases that appear before the Magistrate. Did not include deflections from ED as those likely are included in the EMS/LE categories. See Appendix for more detail. 5. Walk-in cases are scaled from Durham County number to OC population. OC population is about 52% of Durham County (150,000 vs 291,000). So, 100% represent the assumption that OC will experience same walk-in rate as Durham. 110% assumes that OC walk-in episodes in OC will be at a somewhat higher rate than Durham. 6. Of the ED cases not otherwise diverted, a percent could be stepped down to C-D Facility in lieu of inpatient admittance. Data from UNC ED suggest that this number could be as high as 25%.

There is limited analysis of this category at this time, the high and low deflection rates for this category, therefore, are conservatively set at 10% and 5%, respectively. Results The final step in the process of determining the number of episodes that could be served by the new Facility each month is generating a mid-point estimate. The mid-point estimate that results from this process is approximately 400 episodes per month. The mid-point estimate is derived by multiplying the number of episodes from Table 1 by the deflection rates in Table 2. This results in two estimates: a high estimate and a low estimate. Combining these estimates produces a mid-point estimate that is shown in Table 3. It should be noted that the mid-point estimate is not the average of the total numbers. The reason for this is that the high and low deflection rate values are applied to each stakeholder/episode type and the result then summed across all categories. Table 3 presents the mid-point estimates in detail for each stakeholder/episode type. The two right-most columns of Table 3 show the high and low value for each stakeholder. Totals for all stakeholders are presented at the bottom of the columns. Figure 3. Midpoint Estimate Totals and Breakdown by Episode Type and Stakeholder. Demographic Breakdown The above data presents the total number of episodes. It is important to gain an understanding of the demographic breakdown by age, gender, ethnicity, and race. We tried to develop such a breakdown. However, data were lacking or simply required too much analysis for our purposes. The most complete data we could compile was data by age. The age breakdown is critically important to the design of the new Facility because separate accommodations need to be provided for minors and adults.

Of course, for some categories 100% of the projected episodes are minor because the population served by the stakeholder is 100% minors (e.g., schools). Across all categories 23% of possible deflections to the new Facility are expected to be individuals under age 18 or about 90 episodes per month. Uncertainties We have focused on the need to base an estimate of the number of BH episodes that could be served at the Facility on hard data wherever possible. In many categories, data have been extracted from stakeholder databases by subject matter experts who understand the data and its limitations. In other categories, where no hard data exist or where the level of effort required to compile hard data is excessive, we relied on best professional judgement. The sources of the data used is presented in the Appendix to this report. Most of the data available represent BH episodes that currently result in transport to the UNC Emergency Department. Deflection of individuals experiencing a BH crisis from the emergency department is an important part of the Facility’s mission. There is less information about potential diversion or deflection from criminal justice entanglement. This lack of data does not reflect a lack of interest on the part of stakeholders in Orange County, but rather a lack of readily available data. Efforts will continue to develop these data as deflection from criminal justice also is an important part of the Facility’s mission. Finally, the projects are based on 2021/2020 data. Currently, we do not attempt to project growth in the number of cases served by the Facility. Growth in the number of cases will occur due to growth in Orange County population, trends in BH cases requiring services, and increased awareness and, therefore, use of the services available to stakeholders and Orange County residents. DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 6 Appendix Data Sources Used for Projecting Episodes Served at the Facility Previously the Crisis-Diversion Subcommittee prepared estimates of the projected usage of the Crisis Diversion Facility (Facility). A summary of these projections is contained in the subcommittee report provided to the BOCC on April 22, 2021. The Subcommittee updated its estimate of Facility usage in early 2022. This 2022 update is based on: • data for all of 2021, • refining data previously collected, and • adding several new categories not previously included in the projection of Facility usage. Most of the new categories were added because it is now clear that the Facility will provide BHUC services for individuals 4 years old and older. Table 1 presents the data categories and data sources used for the 2022 update of projected Facility usage. Endnotes provide details about sources of data and how the data were used. Exhibit A presents a reconciliation of data collected from various sources with data provided by UNC Emergency Department/Psychiatric Emergency Services (ED/PES). Table 1.

Two types of episodes are included: those coded as MH- nonviolent and those coded as MH-violent. Examination of the potentially violent descriptions suggested that most of these episodes could be addressed at the recommended Crisis-Diversion Facility. Response by LE based on CHPD data indicates that about 80% of the MH calls result in voluntary transport (i.e., transport to the ED without IVC). Data were compiled for the last nine months of 2020 and all of 2021 and included jurisdiction data (e.g., CHPD, HPD, CPD, UNC-PD, OCSO). Few changes in number of episodes were identified between 2020 and 2021, so the 2021 data were used in the projections. Note: DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 7 Most commitment episodes reported for LE agencies are voluntary commitments: that is, voluntary transports to the ED. All IVCs data compiled from the Magistrate’s office are entered separately in our projections under the Magistrate. ii Disturbance/Trespass 911 calls associated with homelessness are recorded separately. Virtually all these calls involve Chapel Hill (87%) and Carrboro (8%). A small percentage of these may be transported to Crisis-Diversion Facility. These diversions may grow as programs to address homeless population evolve. Data were compiled for the last nine months of 2020. No data for 2021 were compiled. The 2020 data are used for the 2022 projections without update. iii In addition to the 911 call data, CHPD records were reviewed: data was compiled from Chapel Hill Police Records Management System (RMS) for 2015 – 2020. Although the RMS records are not designed to support a rigorous enumeration of cases and case types, these records do provide some insight on suicide and SUD episodes. The CHPD data are used to make inferences for episodes in the other Orange County municipalities based on population. Currently, most of these calls result in transport to the UNC ED. Note: Most commitment episodes reported for LE agencies are voluntary commitments or voluntary transports to the ED. All IVCs reported by the Magistrate are entered separately in our projections under the Magistrate. iv EMS 911 calls were compiled from ESO data for three categories: MH-related (includes suicidal ideation), opioid-related, and alcohol-related for 2018 – 2021. Data for 2018, 2019, 2021 were used for the BH category because 2020 data appear to be outliners from the other years on the high side. Most episodes labeled as transported without sirens or lights can be diverted to Facility: less than 3-4% are too agitated to receive care at the Facility. These episodes do not include treated and released or AMA situations. Alcohol (ETOH) cases included data from 2018 – 2021. Opioid data from 2021 are used in the projections instead of 4-year average because cases are increasing year over year. Minors account for about 8.4 percent of BH cases and zero percent of opioid cases. Percent of alcohol related cases that involve minors is not available. v UNC ED data were compiled for the first eleven months of 2021. Cases were categorized as routine and emergent/urgent. These data were not used directly, but served to evaluate data from other stakeholders currently transporting individuals to the UNC ED. vi Requests for clinical assessment and support services provided to individuals and their families involved with Community Resource Courts may result in approximately 5 – 10 cases per month with additional demand from individuals enrolled in Community Resource Court accessing the facility as walk in patients. These estimated are based on best judgement by professionals involved in resource court proceeding. Additionally, various outreach programs (e.g., SORAD, Lantern) may result in an additional 8 patients per month. Also see Endnote viii. Total for this category is estimated to be 10 – 20 patients per month. These estimates do not include any additional deflection efforts by local LE agencies. vii IVCs. Magistrate records were compiled to identify IVCs initiated in Orange County for 2018 – 2021. IVCs have been increasing year over year and this is true for minors as well. The average of 2020 and 2021 is used for the January 2022 projections. The 2020/2021 IVC data also provided breakdown by age and these data are used to estimate the percent of total IVC cases that are under 18 years of age (18.4% – 19.8%). All IVC episodes are included in the Magistrate account and not under law enforcement. Of the approximately 250 IVCs per month, approximately 80% are generated from within UNC Hospital and so are not eligible for deflection to the Facility. Additionally, not all IVCs issued by the OC Magistrate actually involve an Orange County resident. Moreover, do to process issues some individual episodes result in more than one IVC order (e.g., patient cannot be located within 24 hours thus requiring a second DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 8 IVC for the same episode). So, 20% of 250 per month is 50 IVC episodes per month. After accounting for cases that require a higher level of service than provided by the Facility, non-OC residents (40% of UNC ED/PES patients are OC residents), and multiple IVC orders for a single episode, the number of IVC potentially deflected to the Facility per month is estimated to be about 20 per month. This estimate is consistent with a review of UNC ED/PES data. viii Referrals from the Detention Center population for treatment or observation in the Crisis-Diversion Facility are estimated based on best judgement by professionals experienced in providing BH services to this population. Not counting IVCs from Detention Center, approximately 5 patients per month could benefit from Facility to assess and stabilize BH episodes. Additionally, approximately 10 patients per month could be evaluated at the Facility associated with court appearances (e.g., first appearance). These estimates do not account for possible use of the Facility for Safe Keeping, which now requires transfer to Central Prison. No Safe Keeping estimates have been provided. Total for this category is approximately 15 patients per month. ix Best professional judgement is that the number of minors who might be referred to the Crisis-Diversion Facility (Facility) from juvenile justice is 10 – 15 per year (1 – 2 per month). This is represented in the projections as 15 episodes per year with a probability of diversion at 100% for the high value and 67% for the low value. Additionally, based on professional judgement, the number of minors/families who could be diverted to the Facility instead of Secure Custody and involvement in the CJ system is perhaps an additional 10 – 15 cases per year (1 – 2 per month). This is represented in the projections as 15 diversions from CJ per year with a probability of diversion at 100% for the high value and 67% for the low value. x CHCCS provided high level professional judgement and concluded the following. CHCCS population is approximately 11,500 students. Approximately 5% of 11,500 or 575 students a year (about 48 per month) potentially could either have indirect/direct contact with the Facility via staff calling for consultation, safety and risk assessments, substance use/abuse evaluation/assessments, mobile crisis visits to school and/or actual visits. xi Best professional judgement is 10 – 25 students per month diverted to the Facility. Demographic breakdown is estimated to be: 1) 65 – 70% white, 2) 30 – 35% Hispanic/black leaning toward Hispanic and 1) 35% female/65% male (maybe 75% male). For comparison to the CHCCS estimate (see Endnote x) the Orange County Public School system estimate is about 10 – 25 episodes per month represents or 1.6% - 4.0% of total enrollment (7430). xii OC DSS provided data based on 2021 calendar year. Data fall into two categories: 1) In-home and Foster Care cases and 2) work with families not involved in in-home or foster care services. Demographic data provided for first category. xiii Data from Stakeholder Workgroup (22SEP2021) indicated that about 10 – 15 cases per week are transported to ED and same number per week to the Magistrate. The ED cases mostly are covered by EMS data and so are not counted under this category. The magistrate data are additions to the 2021 projection. For the 2022 projections it is assumed that 95 % (high estimate) can be diverted to the Facility based on an assumption that 5% are too agitated for the Facility, which is conservative (the facility is staffed and designed to likely handle 100% of these cases). The low estimate simply reflects the lower end of the range of the estimated number of cases per month. xiv Alliance Health gathered data from Durham’s RI facility. The number of walk-in cases per month is 161 in 2021. Scaling this number to population of Durham County vs Orange County (52%) yields about 84 per month, which is the basis for the value used in the projections. These cases are also assumed to DocuSign Envelope ID: 1920B089-58AA-4E97-8225-7BCF8DEBAAD4 9 account for the routine discharges from UNC ED who may later be part of the walk-in cases served by the Facility. So, no separate transfers or routine cases from UNC ED are counted.
