4. | To implement the recommendations of the Racial Justice Task Force, staff recommends the Committee:
In implementing this first Task Force recommendation the Committee should also notice the recommendation identified a need for resources to staff and facilitate the work of the RJOB. While the level of administrative support required will depend on the volume of additional subcommittees and amount of work required between meetings of the full RJOB. Notwithstanding this, the Office of Reentry and Justice is able to staff quarterly meetings of the RJOB, as recommended by the Task Force, with current ORJ staffing levels. Inquiries into the cost of outside facilitation and support for the work of the RJOB beyond its quarterly meeting resulted in estimates of around $100,000 per year. In considering any recommendations for funding, the Committee should be aware that no revenue source has been identified to cover any of the costs to implement the Task Force recommendations. |

The Racial Justice Coalition shall select it's own representation on the Task Force. 4. Non ex-officio appointees shall be appointed to two-year terms of office. |
