November 10, 2014 - Record of Action

1. WORKSHOP to discuss interaction between Community Based Organizations and County Departments/Agencies related to AB 109 Programming implementation;

2. PROVIDE direction to staff as necessary.

This item was a workshop, no formal action was taken.

The Committee did provide the following direction to staff based on the discussion at the meeting:

1. Central/East County Housing Contract: The Committee directed staff to search for a new housing provider for Central/East County AB 109 returning citizens due to the critical need for housing in that area.

2. CBO Contract Amendments: The Committee directed staff to amend existing contracts with Community Based Organizations (CBOs) to allow for the provision of reentry services to all returning citizens, but maintaining a priority for the current AB 109 population. This will allow CBOs flexibility to provide services to non-AB 109 returning citizens in situations where excess programming capacity is available.

Staff will return to the Committee with updates and to the Board of Supervisors for formal action as necessary.
