Project Narrative
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Fresno County is the sixth largest of 58 California counties covering 6,017
square miles and offering both rural and urban lifestyles in a variety of
landscapes. According to the California Department of Finance, Fresno is the
tenth most populated county with more than 1 million residents. 65% of the
County’s population resides near the center of the county in the densely
populated, adjoining cities of Fresno and Clovis. The balance resides in
suburban, rural and agricultural areas of Fresno County, which include 13 small
cities, 42 towns, and many remote settlements that offer little to no direct
services to residents.
Between 2005 and 2015, Fresno County’s population increased by 10.4%,
nearly twice the statewide growth rate of 5.6%. There are many challenges in
providing services to a growing population with limited resources. Additional
challenges are faced due to the cultural diversity that we enjoy. Fresno County
is home to 112 distinct cultural groups with extensive diversity in languages,
customs and norms. As a result, central valley residents have local access to a
wide range of festive celebrations and foods from far distant lands.
Unfortunately, Fresno County's abundance of cultural diversity presents barriers
to reporting Domestic Violence (DV), Sexual Assault, Dating Violence and
Stalking. In addition, victims in some of these cultural groups are reluctant to
seek help from outsiders. Establishing trust within these cultural communities
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)

requires ongoing awareness training for staff, while translation services and
printed materials that provide an effective means of communication require
additional resources.
The Fresno Police Department reports a dramatic increase in the volume
of DV related calls for assistance within the past three years making the County
the seventh highest in the state in such calls. Fresno County Superior Court
indicates half of all misdemeanor arrests are DV related.
If awarded the Cal OES grant funds, Fresno County will continue to utilize
the Violent Offender Intensive Supervision Endeavor (VOISE) program which
employs a full-time journey level Deputy Probation Officer (DPO) and a full-time
Victim Advocate (VA). The goal of VOISE is to intensely monitor offenders while
minimizing further trauma to victims and families by providing victim protection
and referrals to supportive services and counseling. The DPO will continue to
develop individualized case plans targeting each offender’s needs. Intensive
supervision will encourage the offender to follow the plan. Victims of offenders
enrolled in VOISE will continue to receive supportive services.
A specific protocol of intensive supervision has been developed for this
program. The existing protocol will be further developed as collaborative efforts
result in improved strategies to ensure victim safety and offender accountability.
*Each probationer will have contact with the VOISE DPO at least weekly, with
face-to-face and field contacts preferred, while the person is out in Community
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)

Supervision and is in compliance. If the person returns to custody the provision
would not apply.
*Because the caseload will not exceed 40 probationers, the VOISE DPO will
contact each probationer at a minimum of 40% face-to-face in the field, a
minimum 40% face to face in the office and a maximum of 20% by telephone.
Annually, it is anticipated this will result in: 520 face-to-face contacts in the
office, 240 contacts in the field, and 550 telephone contacts.
*Records of all contacts and attempted contacts will be maintained by the
VOISE DPO.
*Contacts will be collected by the VOISE DPO and VA, tallied and reported
monthly.
*Weekly contact with VOISE probationers will be audited monthly by the VOISE
PSM.
*Monthly contact will be made with the treatment program where the
probationer is enrolled. *Regular checks of police logs will be conducted to
review if probationer is listed.
*Periodic drug and alcohol testing of probationer will be conducted.
* DPO work hours will alternate to allow for evening and weekend field visits with
probationer.
*Periodic court reviews of probationer’s file will be conducted.
*Appropriate sanctions will be requested if the probationer violates any type of
court order.
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)

*The VA will contact victims monthly during the term of the offender’s probation.
The VA will make every effort to locate the victim and document such attempts.
Once contact is established, the VA will discuss the role of the probation officer
and conditions of offender’s probation.
In 2017, Fresno County law enforcement received 8,155 calls for DV calls:
Of those, 5,196 where received by the City of Fresno Police Department; 891 by
the City of Clovis Police Department; 2,068 by the Fresno County Sherriff’s
Office; the overall number does not include calls by the smaller police
departments.
Due to the current Cal OES grant funds, we were able to create the
current VOISE Program and successfully implement the following protocol:
*Each probationer will have contact with the VOICE DPO at least weekly (with
face-to-face and field contacts preferred).
*Because the caseload will not exceed 40 probationers, the VOISE DPO will
contact each probationer at a minimum of 40% face-to-face in the field, a
minimum 40% face to face in the office and a maximum of 20% by telephone.
Annually, we anticipate this will result in: 520 face-to-face contacts in the office,
240 contacts in the field, and 550 telephone contacts.
*Records of all contacts and attempted contacts will be maintained by the
VOISE DPO.
*Contacts will be collected by the VOISE DPO and VA, tallied and reported
monthly.
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)

*Weekly contact with VOISE probationers will be audited monthly by the VOISE
PSM.
*Movement of a VOISE case to inactive will be considered when the offender is
in custody or whereabouts unknown for 30 or more days. At no time shall the
number of inactive cases exceed 20% of the overall cases assigned to VOISE.
(While a case is on inactive status, contact with the probationer will not be
maintained while services to the victim will continue.)
*The VOISE DPO will review STRONG (Static Risk Offender Needs Guide)
assessments updated every 6 months, for risk level, to ensure offenders continue
to meet VOISE criteria.
*The VOISE team will record monthly the number of active and inactive VOISE
probationers. Various totals and statistics will be determined at the end of each
reporting period.
In addition to the above activities implemented by VOISE, the
Department utilizes the DV caseloads of: sex felony supervision, mental-health,
gang, and misdemeanor.
Due to the large number of DV cases and insufficient number of personnel
to manage them, without the continuation of VOISE, existing DV caseloads will
increase thus, negatively impact the victims and their children.

2) Describe the criteria for probationer case assignment(s) to the unit.
All new probation felony DV cases will be assessed by the VOISE PSM.
Those representing the greatest risk to reoffend Static Risk Offender Needs Guide
(STRONG) scores, as well as the greatest risk to the victim and/or public, will be
referred to VOISE. Currently, all cases assigned to the VOISE caseload are High-
Risk/Violent felony cases.
The following priority will be used to accept cases for VOISE. Offenders
convicted of
•a violent felony crime
•a violent misdemeanor crime when the case was originally filed as a
felony
•a misdemeanor crime where there is an established pattern of crime
related to DV, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking
3) Provide projected statistics for the following:
•Number of probationers during the reporting period 60
•Number of field contacts made with victims 25
•Number of in-person office contacts made with victims 25
•Number of telephone contacts made with victims 350
•Number of contacts with victims 400
4) Firearms prohibition:
•Automated Firearms System (AFS) to search project-specific probationers to
identify those probationers possessing firearms
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)
8
The number of projected-specific probationers searched using AFS will be
reported. Each probationer assigned to the VOISE caseload will generate a
search using the firearms registration databases, including the AFS. We
anticipate approximately 30 searches will be made by the VOISE DPO. The
results of AFS searches will be kept in individual VOISE probationer’s case files
and reported annually to Cal OES.
•Facilitate the removal of any prohibited firearm(s) from probationer and
subsequent violation charges
The VOISE DPO will ensure the following:
*The number of Probationers found in possession of firearms will be reported and,
if applicable, the removal of a firearm from a probationer’s possession will be
described.
*Each positive result from an AFS search for weapons registered to a VOISE
probationer will result in Probation initiating a residence search. Searches and
resulting confiscated contraband will be noted in VOISE probationers' case files.
*Each residence search where presence of weapons is suspected will involve
local law enforcement partners, who will confiscate any firearms and generate
new law violation reports as appropriate.
*All weapons in possession of, accessible by, or surrendered by VOISE
probationers will be confiscated or received through our partnership with local
law enforcement in compliance with DOJ regulations.
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)
9
*The number of VOISE probationers found in possession of firearms and the
details of removal of firearms will be reported to Cal OES annually.
•Contact probation caseload by telephone or by mail to ensure each
probationer understands the provisions of the firearm prohibitions
Upon entering Probation, each offender is given "Probation Instructions,"
which include prohibition to acquire or possess a firearm, pursuant to Sections
1202 1 and 29800 of the Penal Code. Each offender must sign, acknowledging
that he/she has received a copy of the conditions of probation. In addition,
each assigned offender will receive an in-person explanation of firearms
prohibitions.
•Distribution of educational materials on firearm prohibitions and confiscation
laws to: (at a minimum) probationers, firearm dealers, law enforcement, the
courts, community-based victim advocates, and victims of DV
The VOISE DPO and VA will work in partnership with DOJ to identify and
distribute educational materials on firearm prohibition and confiscation laws to:
victims, probationers, firearms dealers, law enforcement agencies, the courts,
victim advocates, and service providers.
5) Proposed training schedule/plan to ensure probation officer(s) assigned to
the project receive Program-specific training.
The Fresno County Probation Department will send the VOISE DPO and/or
the VA to training when appropriate and as required by Cal OES.
Subrecipient: Fresno County Subaward #: PU20 03 0100
Project Narrative – Cal OES 2-108 (Revised 3/2019)
10
6) Describe how the monthly probation caseload is determined and maintained
at a reduced level.
Cases are assigned to the VOISE caseload by the VOISE PSM. Cases are
added to the caseload due to attrition by the expirations of probation and
probationers that are committed to California Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation. Movement of a VOISE case to inactive status will be considered
when the offender is in custody for longer than 30 days or has fled with
whereabouts unknown for 30 or more days. At no time shall the number of cases
on inactive status exceed 20% of the overall cases assigned to VOISE. While a
case is on inactive status, weekly contact with the probationer will not be
maintained. However, services to the victim will continue to be provided.
At the end of each month, the number of active VOISE probationers on the
caseload will be recorded. The monthly totals will be summed at the end of the
contract period and divided by twelve to produce the average number on the
caseload. It is anticipated that there will be an average of 30 probationers
intensively supervised under VOISE during the reporting period.
