BACKGROUND:

The County makes payment in support of the activities of certain outside agencies approved by the Board. In order to recognize these contractual agreements and establish the source documents by which payment can be made, Board approval of these Agreements is necessary.

The Center has created an outreach program to assist individuals who have recently been released from a correctional facility in assimilating into society. The program is commonly referred to as Pathways for Change (PFC).

During the July 2017 Budget Workshops Outside Agency discussions the Board allocated the same level of funding as the prior fiscal year to many of our agency partners, including Pathways for Change.

Included in the Budget: $140,000 Program funds and $168,750 Probation/housing totaling $308,750.
Agency Request: $175,000 Program funds and $168,750 Probation/housing totaling $343,750.

This recommendation is necessary to confirm the Board's intent at the appropriate funding levels included in the FY 17/18 Budget.
