DATE: November 6, 2018
TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: Kirk Haynes, Chief Probation Officer
SUBJECT: Retroactive Grant Application and Agreement for Juvenile Delinquency
Prevention and Intervention Grant Program Funds
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
1. Retroactively authorize the Chief Probation Officer's previous submittal of a grant application to the State of California's Board of State and Community Corrections for Title II Juvenile Delinquency Prevention and Intervention Grant Program funds; and
2. Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a retroactive grant award agreement with the Board of State and Community Corrections (Grant Number BSCC 414-18) for Title II Juvenile Delinquency Prevention and Intervention Grant Program funds ($300,000); and
3. Adopt resolution authorizing the Chairman to sign the grant application and to execute retroactive grant award agreement and any amendments thereto with the Board of State and Community Corrections for the period October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019, subject to approval by County Counsel and the Auditor-Controller/Treasurer-Tax Collector.
REPORT
There is no Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. A non-competitive Federal funding opportunity was offered by the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) on July 24, 2018 for the renewal (fourth year) of the Probation Department's existing Planned Re-Entry Program (PREP) grant. To meet the filing deadline of August 22, 2018, the grant application was submitted contingent upon your Board's approval. The PREP provides re-entry services to youth committed to and released from the Juvenile Justice Campus (JJC). This item is countywide.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
If the recommended actions are not approved, the submitted grant application will be withdrawn from consideration for funding. This will result in the loss of needed re-entry services to youth committed to the JJC.
