| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The fiscal year 2014-15 State Budget Act appropriated Recidivism Reduction Funds for MIOCR grants for the purpose of supporting appropriate prevention, intervention, supervision, services and strategies to reduce recidivism in California's mentally ill offender population, as well as improving outcomes for these offenders while continuing public safety. Yolo County has been awarded $950,000 for the Yolo County Mentally Ill Offender Crime Reduction (MIOCR) project from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2018.
This grant expands the county's current wraparound services to juveniles involved with the juvenile justice system and who have co-occurring mental health and substance abuse diagnoses. The project will coordinate a team using multiple resources, members from various agencies such as social services, behavioral health providers, and justice partners, and most importantly, the family. The wraparound program will coordinate appropriate services to provide adequate treatment for youth and provide interventions that will improve youth and their family's functioning across multiple life domains to provide a smooth transition for youth back into the community while reducing the likelihood of recidivism. |
| Collaborations (including Board advisory groups and external partner agencies) |
| County Counsel has approved the contract as to form. Probation collaborated with HHSA to coordinate and expand wrap around services. |
