funds) to pay for audit costs. For purposes of this grant award grantee is required to check one of
the boxes below to indicate how they will meet the audit requirement.

Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and
the California State Controller's Accounting Standards and Procedures, Chapter 23, Grant
Accounting Index, the identified grant will be included in the City/County Single Federal Audit
Report, which will be submitted to the BSCC within 30 days of the Grantee's receipt of the
report or within nine months following the end of the audit period, whichever is earlier.

records and make them available for review or audit by appropriate officials of the Federal
agency, pass-through agency (i.e., the Board of State and Community Corrections) and
Governmental Accountability Office.

JAG Application for Funding.
8. TERMINATION
A. This Grant Agreement may be terminated by the BSCC at any time after grant award and prior
to completion of project upon action or inaction by the Grantee that constitutes a material and
substantial breech of this Grant Agreement. Such action or inaction includes but is not limited
to:
1) substantial alteration of the scope of the grant project without prior written approval of the
BSCC;
2) refusal or inability to complete the grant project in a manner consistent with Attachment 1:
2022 JAG Request for Proposals, and Attachment 2: 2022 JAG Application for Funding
3) failure to provide the required local match share of the total project costs; and

EXHIBIT D: SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
instructions listed in Exhibit D: Special Terms and Conditions, Number 8. Settlement of
Disputes.
9. SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES
A. The parties shall deal in good faith and attempt to resolve potential disputes informally. If the
dispute persists, the Grantee shall submit to the BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant
Programs Division Deputy Director a written demand for a final decision regarding the
disposition of any dispute between the parties arising under, related to, or involving this Grant
Agreement. Grantee's written demand shall be fully supported by factual information. The
BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division Deputy Director shall have 30 days
after receipt of Grantee's written demand invoking this Section "Disputes" to render a written
decision. If a written decision is not rendered within 30 days after receipt of the Grantee's
demand, it shall be deemed a decision adverse to the Grantee's contention. If the Grantee is
not satisfied with the decision of the BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division
Deputy Director, the Grantee may appeal the decision, in writing, within 15 days of its issuance
(or the expiration of the 30-day period in the event no decision is rendered), to the BSCC
Executive Director, who shall have 45 days to render a final decision. If the Grantee does not
appeal the decision of the BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division Deputy
Director, the decision shall be conclusive and binding regarding the dispute and the Contractor
shall be barred from commencing an action in court, or with the Victims Compensation
Government Claims Board, for failure to exhaust Grantee's administrative remedies.
B. Pending the final resolution of any dispute arising under, related to or involving this Grant
Agreement, Grantee agrees to diligently proceed with the performance of this Grant Agreement,
including the providing of services in accordance with the Grant Agreement. Grantee's failure
to diligently proceed in accordance with the State's instructions regarding this Grant Agreement
shall be considered a material breach of this Grant Agreement.
C. Any final decision of the State shall be expressly identified as such, shall be in writing, and shall
be signed by the Executive Director, if an appeal was made. If the Executive Director fails to
render a final decision within 45 days after receipt of the Grantee's appeal for a final decision,
it shall be deemed a final decision adverse to the Grantee's contentions. The State's final
decision shall be conclusive and binding regarding the dispute unless the Grantee commences
an action in a court of competent jurisdiction to contest such decision within 90 days following
the date of the final decision or one (1) year following the accrual of the cause of action,
whichever is later.
D. The dates of decision and appeal in this section may be modified by mutual consent, as
applicable, excepting the time to commence an action in a court of competent jurisdiction.
10. WAIVER
The parties hereto may waive any of their rights under this Grant Agreement unless such waiver is
contrary to law, provided that any such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the party making
such waiver.

2020 JAG Federal Award Conditions
The Grantee hereby assures and certifies compliance with all federal statutes, regulations, policies,
guidelines and requirements, including the following:
1. Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements
The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any
assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during
the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award.
Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOX) may
determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise
applicable to the award. Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such
exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of performance)
set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal Notices: Special
circumstances as to particular award conditions" (ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices-
AwardRegts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the award.
By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official
accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed
by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the
recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance.
Failure to comply with one or more award requirements --whether a condition set out in full below,
a condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct
during the award period — may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient
and the award. Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend
or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this
award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution
(including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead
to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including
under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its
terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum
effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or
unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this award.
2. Applicability of Part 200 Uniform Requirements
The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements in 2 C.F.R.
Part 200, as adopted and supplemented by DOJ in 2 C.F.R. Part 2800 (together, the "Part 200
Uniform Requirements") apply to this FY 2020 award from OJP.
Rev 10/2022
Fresno County
BSCC 1202-23
Page 2 of 59
The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY
2020 award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number (e.g.,
funds awarded during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform Requirements apply with
respect to all funds under that award number (regardless of the award date, and regardless of
whether derived from the initial award or a supplemental award) that are obligated on or after the
acceptance date of this FY 2020 award.
For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to OJP
awards and subawards ("subgrants"), see the OJP website at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Part2000niformRequirements.htm. Record retention and access: Records
pertinent to the award that the recipient(and any subrecipient("subgrantee")at any tier)must retain
-- typically for a period of 3 years from the date of submission of the final expenditure report (SF
425), unless a different retention period applies -- and to which the recipient (and any subrecipient
("subgrantee") at any tier) must provide access, include performance measurement information, in
addition to the financial records, supporting documents, statistical records, and other pertinent
records indicated at 2 C.F.R. 200.333.
In the event that an award-related question arises from documents or other materials prepared or
distributed by OJP that may appear to conflict with, or differ in some way from, the provisions of
the Part 200 Uniform Requirements, the recipient is to contact OJP promptly for clarification.
3. Compliance with DOJ Grants Financial Guide
References to the DOJ Grants Financial Guide are to the DOJ Grants Financial Guide as posted
on the OJP website (currently, the "DOJ Grants Financial Guide" available at
https://ojp.gov/financialguide/DOJ/index.htm), including any updated version that may be posted
during the period of performance. The recipient agrees to comply with the DOJGrants Financial
Guide.
4. Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S. Code
were editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled "Crime
Control and Law Enforcement."The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory provisions
pertinent to OJP awards (that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including many
provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision
that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that
statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes
references set out in award conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference
through award conditions, and references set out in other award requirements.
5. Required training for Point of Contact and all Financial Points of Contact
Both the Point of Contact (POC) and all Financial Points of Contact (FPOCs) for this award must
have successfully completed an "OJP financial management and grant administration training" by
Rev 10/2022
Fresno County
BSCC 1202-23
Page 3 of 59
120 days after the date of the recipient's acceptance of the award. Successful completion of such
a training on or after January 1, 2018, will satisfy this condition.
In the event that either the POC or an FPOC for this award changes during the period of
performance, the new POC or FPOC must have successfully completed an "OJP financial
management and grant administration training" by 120 calendar days after-- (1) the date of OJP's
approval of the "Change Grantee Contact" GAN (in the case of a new POC), or (2) the date the
POC enters information on the new FPOC in GMS (in the case of a new FPOC). Successful
completion of such a training on or after January 1, 2018, will satisfy this condition.
A list of OJP trainings that OJP will consider "OJP financial management and grant administration
training" for purposes of this condition is available at https://www.ojp.gov/training/fmts.htm. All
trainings that satisfy this condition include a session on grant fraud prevention and detection.
The recipient should anticipate that OJP will immediately withhold ("freeze") award funds if the
recipient fails to comply with this condition. The recipient's failure to comply also may lead OJP to
impose additional appropriate conditions on this award.
6. Requirements related to "de minimis" indirect cost rate
A recipient that is eligible under the Part 200 Uniform Requirements and other applicable law to
use the "de minimis" indirect cost rate described in 2 C.F.R. 200.414(f), and that elects to use the
"de minimis" indirect cost rate, must advise OJP in writing of both its eligibility and its election, and
must comply with all associated requirements in the Part 200 Uniform Requirements. The "de
minimis" rate may be applied only to modified total direct costs (MTDC) as defined by the Part 200
Uniform Requirements.
7. Requirement to report potentially duplicative funding
If the recipient currently has other active awards of federal funds, or if the recipient receives any
other award of federal funds during the period of performance for this award, the recipient promptly
must determine whether funds from any of those other federal awards have been, are being, or are
to be used (in whole or in part) for one or more of the identical cost items for which funds are
provided under this award. If so, the recipient must promptly notify the DOJ awarding agency (OJP
or OVW, as appropriate) in writing of the potential duplication, and, if so requested by the DOJ
awarding agency, must seek a budget-modification or change-of-project-scope grant adjustment
notice (GAN) to eliminate any inappropriate duplication of funding.
8. Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements
The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award
Management (SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable
requirements regarding registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information
in SAM.
The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first-tier
subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not
acquire and provide (to the recipient) the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration.

BSCC 1202-23
Page 37 of 59
of the award. As of the first day of the period of performance for the award (October 1, 2020),
however, the recipient may choose to incur project costs using non-federal funds, but any such
project costs are incurred at the recipient's risk until, at a minimum-- (1)the recipient makes a valid
acceptance of the award, and (2) all applicable withholding conditions are removed by OJP (via an
Award Condition Modification (ACM)). (A withholding condition is a condition in the award document
that precludes the recipient from obligating, expending, or drawing down all or a portion of the
award funds until the condition is removed.)
Except to the extent (if any) that an award condition expressly precludes reimbursement of project
costs incurred "at-risk," if and when the recipient makes a valid acceptance of this award and OJP
removes each applicable withholding condition through an Award Condition Modification (ACM),
the recipient is authorized to obligate (federal) award funds to reimburse itself for project costs
incurred "at-risk" earlier during the period of performance (such as project costs incurred prior to
award acceptance or prior to removal of an applicable withholding condition), provided that those
project costs otherwise are allowable costs under the award.
50. If award funds are used for DNA testing of evidentiary materials, any resulting eligible DNA profiles
must be uploaded to the Combined DNA Index System ("CODIS," the DNA database operated by

to fund (in whole or in part) a specific project or program (such as a law enforcement, prosecution,
or court program) that results in any court dispositions, information, or other records that are
"eligible records" (under federal or State law) relevant to the National Instant Background Check
System (NICS), or that has as one of its purposes the establishment or improvement of records
systems that contain any court dispositions, information, or other records that are "eligible records"
(under federal or State law) relevant to the NICS, the recipient (or subrecipient, if applicable) must
ensure that all such court dispositions, information, or other records that are "eligible records"
(under federal or State law) relevant to the NICS are promptly made available to the NICS or to the
"State" repository/database that is electronically available to (and accessed by) the NICS, and --
when appropriate -- promptly must update, correct, modify, or remove such NICS-relevant "eligible
records".

7. Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements
The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any
assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during
the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award.
Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOX) may
determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise
applicable to the award. Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such
exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of
performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal
Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions"
(ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices-AwardRegts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the
award.
By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official
accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed
by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the
recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance.
Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full
below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to
conduct during the award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the
recipient and the award. Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs,
or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as
appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this
award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution
(including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead
to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including
under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its
terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum
effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or-
unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this award.

21. Restrictions and certifications regarding non-disclosure agreements and related matters
No recipient or subrecipient ("subgrantee") under this award, or entity that receives a
procurement contract or subcontract with any funds under this award, may require any employee
or contractor to sign an internal confidentiality agreement or statement that prohibits or otherwise
restricts, or purports to prohibit or restrict, the reporting (in accordance with law) of waste, fraud,
or abuse to an investigative or law enforcement representative of a federal department or agency
authorized to receive such information.
The foregoing is not intended, and shall not be understood by the agency making this award, to
contravene requirements applicable to Standard Form 312 (which relates to classified
information), Form 4414 (which relates to sensitive compartmented information), or any other
form issued by a federal department or agency governing the nondisclosure of classified
information.
1. In accepting this award, the recipient--
a. represents that it neither requires nor has required internal confidentiality agreements or
statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise currently restrict (or
purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as
described above; and
b. certifies that, if it learns or is notified that it is or has been requiring its employees or
contractors to execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to
prohibit or restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately
stop any further obligations of award funds, will provide prompt written notification to the federal
agency making this award, and will resume (or permit resumption of) such obligations only if
expressly authorized to do so by that agency.
2. If the recipient does or is authorized under this award to make subawards ("subgrants"),
procurement contracts, or both--
a. it represents that--
(1) it has determined that no other entity that the recipient's application proposes may or will
receive award funds (whether through a subaward ("subgrant"), procurement contract, or
subcontract under a procurement contract) either requires or has required internal confidentiality
agreements or statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise
currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from reporting waste,
fraud, or abuse as described above; and
(2) it has made appropriate inquiry, or otherwise has an adequate factual basis, to support this
representation; and

that receives funds under this award is or has been requiring its employees or contractors to
execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to prohibit or
restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately stop any
further obligations of award funds to or by that entity, will provide prompt written notification to the
federal agency making this award, and will resume (or permit resumption of) such obligations only
if expressly authorized to do so by that agency.
22. Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S.
Code were editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled
"Crime Control and Law Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory
provisions pertinent to OJP awards (that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including
many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision
that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that
statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes
references set out in award conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference
through award conditions, and references set out in other award requirements.
23. All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
requirements for authorization of any subaward. This condition applies to agreements that-- for
purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and
therefore does not consider a procurement "contract").
The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site
at https://omp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All subawards
("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by reference here.
24. Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements
The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award
Management (SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable
requirements regarding registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information
in SAM.
The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first-tier
subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not
acquire and provide (to the recipient)the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration.
The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are posted
on the OJP web site at https://o'p.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition: System for
Award Management (SAM) and Universal Identifier Requirements), and are incorporated by
reference here.
Rev 10/2022

This condition does not apply to an award to an individual who received the award as a natural
person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or
operate in his or her name).
25. Restrictions on "lobbying"
In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the
recipient, or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or
oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any
level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal
statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.)
Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the
recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a
federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them)
with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract,
subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any
such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including an exception that
applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations.
Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or
subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact
OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.
26. Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement
contract that would exceed $250,000
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
requirements to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any
procurement contract that would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently,
$250,000). This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants
administrative requirements -- OJP considers a procurement "contract" (and therefore does not
consider a subaward).
The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a
procurement contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at
https://omp.gov/funding/Explore/NoncompetitiveProcurement.htm (Award condition: Specific post-
award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract (if contract
would exceed $250,000)), and are incorporated by reference here.
27. Requirements pertaining to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons (including reporting
requirements and OJP authority to terminate award)
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
requirements (including requirements to report allegations) pertaining to prohibited conduct
related to the trafficking of persons, whether on the part of recipients, subrecipients
("subgrantees"), or individuals defined (for purposes of this condition) as "employees" of the

28. Requirement to report potentially duplicative funding
If the recipient currently has other active awards of federal funds, or if the recipient receives any
other award of federal funds during the period of performance for this award, the recipient
promptly must determine whether funds from any of those other federal awards have been, are
being, or are to be used (in whole or in part) for one or more of the identical cost items for which
funds are provided under this award. If so, the recipient must promptly notify the DOJ awarding
agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) in writing of the potential duplication, and, if so requested
by the DOJ awarding agency, must seek a budget-modification or change-of-project-scope Grant
Award Modification (GAM) to eliminate any inappropriate duplication of funding.
29. Reporting potential fraud, waste, and abuse, and similar misconduct
The recipient, and any subrecipients ("subgrantees") at any tier, must promptly refer to the DOJ
Office of the Inspector General (OIG) any credible evidence that a principal, employee, agent,
subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, or other person has, in connection with funds under this
award-- (1) submitted a claim that violates the False Claims Act; or (2) committed a criminal or
civil violation of laws pertaining to fraud, conflict of interest, bribery, gratuity, or similar
misconduct.

30. FFATA reporting: Subawards and executive compensation
The recipient must comply with applicable requirements to report first-tier subawards
("subgrants") of$30,000 or more and, in certain circumstances, to report the names and total
compensation of the five most highly compensated executives of the recipient and first-tier
subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees") of award funds. The details of recipient obligations, which
derive from the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA), are
posted on the OJP web site at https://omp.gov/funding/Explore/FFATA.htm (Award condition:

Page 51 of 59
$30,000, or (2) an award made to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e.,

48. Expenditures prohibited without waiver
No funds under this award may be expended on the purchase of items prohibited by the JAG
program statute, unless, as set forth at 34 U.S.C. 10152, the BJA Director certifies that
extraordinary and exigent circumstances exist, making such expenditures essential to the
maintenance of public safety and good order.
49. Authorization to obligate (federal) award funds to reimburse certain project costs incurred on or
after October 1, 2021
The recipient may obligate (federal) award funds only after the recipient makes a valid
acceptance of the award. As of the first day of the period of performance for the award (October
1, 2021), however, the recipient may choose to incur project costs using non-federal funds, but
any such project costs are incurred at the recipient's risk until, at a minimum-- (1) the recipient
makes a valid acceptance of the award, and (2) all applicable withholding conditions are removed
by OJP (via an Award Condition Modification (ACM)). (A withholding condition is a condition in
the award document that precludes the recipient from obligating, expending, or drawing down all
or a portion of the award funds until the condition is removed.)
Except to the extent (if any) that an award condition expressly precludes reimbursement of
project costs incurred "at-risk," if and when the recipient makes a valid acceptance of this award
and OJP removes each applicable withholding condition through an Award Condition Modification
(ACM), the recipient is authorized to obligate (federal) award funds to reimburse itself for project
costs incurred "at-risk" earlier during the period of performance (such as project costs incurred
prior to award acceptance or prior to removal of an applicable withholding condition), provided
that those project costs otherwise are allowable costs under the award.
50. If award funds are used for DNA testing of evidentiary materials, any resulting eligible DNA
profiles must be uploaded to the Combined DNA Index System ("CODIS," the DNA database
operated by the FBI) by a government DNA laboratory with access to CODIS. No profiles
generated under this award may be entered or uploaded into any non-governmental DNA
database without prior express written approval from BJA. Award funds may not be used for the
purchase of DNA equipment and supplies unless the resulting DNA profiles may be accepted for
entry into CODIS. Booking agencies should work with their state CODIS agency to ensure all
requirements are met for participation in Rapid DNA (see National Rapid DNA Booking
Operational Procedures Manual).
51. Recipients utilizing award funds for forensic genealogy testing must adhere to the United States
Department of Justice Interim Policy Forensic Genealogical DNA Analysis and Searching
(htti)s://www.0ustice.gov/oli)/page/file/l204386/download), and must collect and report the metrics
identified in Section IX of that document to BJA.
52. Submission of eligible records relevant to the National Instant Background Check System
Consonant with federal statutes that pertain to firearms and background checks -- including 18
U.S.C. 922 and 34 U.S.C. ch. 409 -- if the recipient (or any subrecipient at any tier) uses this
award to fund (in whole or in part) a specific project or program (such as a law enforcement,

prosecution, or court program) that results in any court dispositions, information, or other records
that are "eligible records" (under federal or State law) relevant to the National Instant Background
Check System (NICS), or that has as one of its purposes the establishment or improvement of
records systems that contain any court dispositions, information, or other records that are "eligible
records" (under federal or State law) relevant to the NICS, the recipient (or subrecipient, if
applicable) must ensure that all such court dispositions, information, or other records that are
"eligible records" (under federal or State law) relevant to the NICS are promptly made available to
the NICS or to the "State" repository/database that is electronically available to (and accessed by)
the NICS, and -- when appropriate -- promptly must update, correct, modify, or remove such
NICS-relevant "eligible records".
In the event of minor and transitory non-compliance, the recipient may submit evidence to
demonstrate diligent monitoring of compliance with this condition (including subrecipient
compliance). DOJ will give great weight to any such evidence in any express written
determination regarding this condition.
53. Prohibition on use of award funds for match under BVP program
JAG funds may not be used as the 50% match for purposes of the DOJ Bulletproof Vest
Partnership (BVP) program.
54. Certification of body armor "mandatory wear" policies, and compliance with NIJ standards
If recipient uses funds under this award to purchase body armor, the recipient must submit a
signed certification that each law enforcement agency receiving body armor purchased with funds
from this award has a written "mandatory wear" policy in effect. The recipient must keep signed
certifications on file for any subrecipients planning to utilize funds from this award for ballistic-
resistant and stab-resistant body armor purchases. This policy must be in place for at least all
uniformed officers before any funds from this award may be used by an agency for body armor.
There are no requirements regarding the nature of the policy other than it be a mandatory wear
policy for all uniformed officers while on duty.
Ballistic-resistant and stab-resistant body armor purchased with award funds may be purchased
at any threat level, make or model, from any distributor or manufacturer, as long as the body
armor has been tested and found to comply with applicable National Institute of Justice ballistic or
stab standards, and is listed on the NIJ Compliant Body Armor Model List. In addition, ballistic-
resistant and stab-resistant body armor purchased must be made in the United States and must
be uniquely fitted, as set forth in 34 U.S.C. 10202(c)(1)(A). The latest NIJ standard information
and the NIJ Compliant Body Armor List may be found by following the links located on the NIJ

include, at the appropriate phase to prevent any violation of constitutional rights, at minimum,
notice, the right to an in-person hearing, an unbiased adjudicator, the right to know opposing
evidence, the right to present evidence, and the right to confront adverse witnesses; the right to
be represented by counsel at no expense to the government; pre-deprivation and post-
deprivation heightened evidentiary standards and proof which mean not less than the protections
afforded to a similarly situated litigant in Federal court or promulgated by the State's evidentiary
body, and sufficient to ensure the full protections of the Constitution of the United States,
including but not limited to the Bill of Rights, and the substantive and procedural due process
rights guaranteed under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United
States, as applied to the States, and as interpreted by State courts and United States courts
(including the Supreme Court of the United States). The heightened evidentiary standards and
proof under such programs must, at all appropriate phases to prevent any violation of any
constitutional right, at minimum, prevent reliance upon evidence that is unsworn or unaffirmed,
irrelevant, based on inadmissible hearsay, unreliable, vague, speculative, and lacking a
foundation; and penalties for abuse of the program.
56. The recipient agrees that no funds under this grant award (including via subcontract or subaward,

Proposal Narrative Section I: Project Need
1.1 In Fresno County, the need continues to be reduction of gang
activity. The established `Prevention and Education Program' with a
`Gang Initiative', the Adult Reentry Planning Program (ARPP), which
offers job training, referrals, substance abuse, life skills, mental
health, etc. alternatives to gang life, is being provided. According to
the Fresno County Sheriff's Department, the risk a person will commit
a new crime is highest not in the few months after release from
custody but in the few hours after. The immediate timeframe post-
release is critical to recidivism. Based on this evidence, addressing
the individual's stabilization and criminogenic needs are the key
factors in reducing the likelihood the individual will recidivate.
Increased gang activity affects public safety with increased crime,
graffiti, drug, and human trafficking.
1.2. The US Census Bureau reports 1,013,581 residents as of July 1,
2021, making Fresno County the tenth most populated of California's
58 counties. From 2020 to 2021, the annual growth rate of .5%
represents an annual increase of 10,947 residents. In comparison,
California's population decreased .8%at the same time. The US
Census details California's poverty rate as 11.5% in 2020. Individual
county poverty rates ranged widely, from a low of 5.5% in San Mateo
County to a high 18.5 % in Del Norte County, with Fresno County
ranked 8th highest at 17.1%. In 2021 nearly one in five Fresno County
residents lived in poverty. According to the latest data from the U.S.
Census Bureau, Fresno's poor population has shrunk considerably,
but with a 2020 poverty rate of 17.1% it remains high.
1.3. In Fresno County there are 177 identified street gangs with
approximately 25,871 members. In 2021, the Fresno City Police
Department, which is the largest metropolitan city in Fresno County,
reported criminal gang activity included 45 homicides, 653 shootings,
697 gang Parole/Probation searches, 160 search warrants, 301 gun
seizures, and 521 felony arrents.
1.4. Incarceration has a significant impact on the inmate's family and
children as well as the cost to the public. In 2022, there were 89
individuals in Fresno County Jail, 18-30 years of age, serving a
minimum sentence of 60 days, affiliated or previously affiliated with a
gang, identified at a high-risk to reoffend, non-AB 109 offenders; in
2021 there were 91, and in 2019, there were 279.
1.5. When released from custody, these individuals return to the
same neighborhoods and friends because they have nowhere else to
turn to, no access to education or income, and no support and are
not able to escape the gang lifestyle. To support those involved or
previously involved in gangs when released from the Fresno County
Jail, the Probation Department has developed case management
services for the targeted population that will assess and address the
above referenced needs in order reduce the likelihood of the
individual committing new crimes. Each year an average number of
447 adults 18-30 years of age, affiliated with a gang, identified at a
high-risk to reoffend, and has a minimum in-custody sentence of
sixty days are released from Fresno County Jail in the community.
Immediately upon their release, these individuals face challenges, not
the least of which are finding and sustaining housing and meaningful
employment. Recognizing these challenges can hinder successful
transition from custody to the community. The Probation
Department, in collaboration with our criminal justice partners,
County departments, and community-based organizations, is seeking
continued funding the Adult Reentry Planning Program (ARPP). This
recidivism-reduction plan has established a comprehensive set of
pre- and post-release case management services and assessment-
driven referrals. The goal continues to be to achieve successful re-
entry for each of the participants into their community.
Section II: Project Description
2.1. The ARPP is an evidence-based case management program with
the goal to prepare the individuals in the target population for life
after incarceration so that they can lead productive lives and not re-
enter the criminal justice system. The goal of this project is to
continue to provide evidence-based case management services that
address the stabilization and criminogenic needs of the targeted
population to prevent them from recidivating and to improve public
safety. Through the case management the ARPP will assess
participants needs using Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Effective
Practices in Community Supervision (EPICS). From the results of the
risk needs assessment, case managers use Risk Needs Responsivity
(RNR) techniques to develop individualized case plans
corresponding to the risk to re-offend, to target the individual's
criminogenic needs, reduce recidivism, and address the participant's
abilities and motivations. Services start as soon as possible after the
individual begins serving their sentence at minimum sixty days prior
to release from jail and for up to six months post release.
This project links to the `Prevention and Education Programs' JAG
PPA and `Gang Initiatives' Area of Need because the program
responds to an increase in gang related crimes in Fresno County and
is designed to reduce the incidence of gang crime by assisting
individuals to leave the gang lifestyle and effectively transition into a
safe, productive lifestyle.
2.2. The target population of the program are individuals committed
to Fresno County Jail, 18 — 30 years of age, affiliated or previously
affiliated with a gang, at a high-risk to reoffend, and are non-AB 109
offenders. The ARPP is currently the only program that provides pre-
or post-release case management services specifically to this
population. The ARPP uses the following strategies:
• Deputy Probation Officer (DPO) obtains a list of individuals from the
Fresno County Sheriff's Office having 60 or more day sentences and
recruits and screens those individuals meeting the target population.
Individuals with more serious charges such as arson or sexual
offences are ineligible.
• Case managers collaborate with the DPO, to conduct evidence-
based needs assessments and develop a case plan for those
participating in the program. This identifies the stabilization (housing,
food, etc.) and criminogenic needs to be addressed. If case workers
are restricted from entering the jail, the DPO enters the jail and
conducts the assessments.
• Once the stabilization and criminogenic needs have been identified,
the case manager prepares a case plan to address those needs
through referrals to programs within the community and public
agencies. The highest priority is to arrange for housing and other
stability issues for the participants prior to release from custody.
• Pre-release services are offered to participants of the program
including mentoring, family reunification, and pro-social behavior
programs. Case managers work with the participants to obtain any
essential documents (i.e., valid identification, driver's license); and
address any other issues such as record expungement.
• A multi-disciplinary team including, but not limited to, the case
manager, DPO, family member, and mentors meet every two weeks
prior to release to review the transition plan and make any necessary
changes.
• Post-release, the case manager makes any necessary referrals for
services that were not completed during pre-release. For up to six
months, the case manager monitors the progress of the participant
and address any issues that are hindering the participant from
completing their goals. This includes working with the agencies that
are providing services to the participant.
• A DPO is assigned to this program and works with the case
managers in addressing participants' needs. Meetings are held with
the DPO and case manager to ensure any issues are addressed to
help ensure the progress of the participants.
2.3. The proposed intervention will provide case management
services and probation supervision using Risk, Need, Responsivity
(RNR) principles. Both the case managers and DPO assigned to this
program will be trained in Effective Practices in Community
Supervision (EPICS) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). EPICS and MI
have been proven methods in providing RNR principles to the
targeted population. These principles are evidence-based using
interventions corresponding to the risk to re-offend, target the
individual's criminogenic needs, which have proven to reduce
recidivism, and use interventions that address the participant's
abilities and motivation. The objectives of the program are to meet
each participant's needs as specified by their individualized case
plan. Studies have shown, if these objectives are met, the program's
overall goal to reduce recidivism will be achieved.
The Washington State Institute of Public Policy has identified the
(RNR) principles as an evidence-based practice based on the results
of studies completed on medium to high-risk participant populations.
Maryland's Proactive Community Supervision (PCS) model was one
of the first to implement the RNR approach in their supervision
program. Faye S. Taxman, George Mason University, completed a
research study on this program titled "No Illusions: Offender and
Organizational Change In Maryland's Proactive Community
Supervision Efforts". The study concluded that participants that
where supervised with the RNR model were less likely to get
rearrested (30%for the PCS participants compared to 42%for non-
PCS participants) and less likely to have a warrant issued for a
technical violation (34Fd.7%of the PCS participants compared to 40%
for the non-PCS participants).
According to the Washington State Institute of Public Policy, the RNR
approach, which is proposed in this program, has been shown to be
effective for those individuals identified as medium to high-risk
populations. The proposed target population is the medium and high-
risk participants based on an evidence-based needs assessment
tool. The proposed target population for this program will be medium
to high-risk participants that have gang affiliation or previous gang
affiliation.
The Probation Department has been using evidence-based practices
in their supervision of medium and high-risk participants for many
years. The evidence-based Static Risk and Offender Needs Guide —
Revised (STRONG-R) assessment tool has been used to identify an
individual's risk to reoffend and develop a case plan to identify the
criminogenic needs of the individuals. In addition, all supervision
staff are trained in the assessment tools and case plans. Currently,
EPICS is being implemented throughout the Probation Department
and MI training is offered to all Officers.

2022. To form the Steering Committee, Probation contacted its
traditional criminal justice partners and other County departments,
provided an overview of JAG, explained the role of the Committee,
and invited them to participate. To recruit non-traditional members,
such as faith-based and community-based agencies,
recommendations were requested from the traditional criminal justice
partners. Next, Probation invited the recommended members to
participate. It was announced and agreed upon by the Steering
Committee that each agency would have equal say in the decision-
making process. In the end, commitment was secured from all
invited.
3.3 Partners include a balanced representation of both traditional and
non-traditional stakeholders. The Local JAG Steering Committee is
comprised of criminal justice stakeholders such as the Public
Defender's Office, the District Attorney's Office, the Sheriff's Office as
well as a chaplain, faith-based and community-based organizations,
county departments such as Social Services and Behavioral Health.
All has years of experience advocating and supporting individuals to
be self-sufficient and empowered to live a more productive life. The
Steering Committee is comprised of 14members and includes
traditional criminal justice stakeholders (Sheriff's, Public Defender's,
and District Attorney's Offices, Probation, Fresno Superior Court),
other County departments (Behavioral Health and Social Services),
and non-traditional stakeholders such as educators, advocacy
groups, and community-based (Community Justice Center) promote
the development of cooperative dispute resolution and justice
programs within the institution of church and society; California State
University, Fresno's Project Rebound assists those formerly

La Familia offers social service and education programs in rural and
urban areas; Cultural Brokers addresses concerns related to
d is proportionality and disparities of the child welfare system; Fresno
Housing Authority helps low and moderate income households afford
safe, quality housing).
3.4. Every committee member was notified in advance and in the
same manner of meetings and was given equal voting rights. Each
agency, regardless of number of representatives present, was given
1 vote. At the end of the group discussion, a vote was taken, and the
project need and services to be provided to address the community
need were identified and unanimously approved.
3.5 At the request of the Probation Department, committee members
were provided the opportunity to recommend a community need that
is related to one or more of the five JAG PPA, offer solutions, and
seek out a detailed resolution. Based upon the Department's existing
and productive collaboration with the committee members, the
Committee came together in two meetings. At these meetings the
Committee identified priorities and community needs, determined the
intervention type needed to address the need, developed the
strategy to address the need, and identified the project and services
to be provided to address the community need. After group
discussion, the project need, specific target population, and project
strategy were determined.
3.6. Probation collaborates with the members regularly in a myriad of
ways such as: With the District Attorney's Office to advocate in the
courtroom for community safety and the rehabilitation of youth in
delinquency proceedings; to provide accurate records of law
enforcement contact and court outcomes.
With the Departments of Behavioral Health (DBH) and Social Services
(DSS) to approve/deny cases due to mandates of Short-Term
Residential Therapeutic Program (STRTP) placements; to screen
cases for SB 163 Wraparound services, which are intensive services
that help support the family and avoid out of home removal.
With DSS, DBH, and Centro La Familia to collaborate on cases
regarding youth at risk or identified as victims of human trafficking.
With DSS to jointly supervise a youth on Deferred Entry of Judgment
(DEJ) probation, where the minor remains a 300 dependent, under
the care, custody, and control of DSS but is supervised; to share
information sharing regarding the youths' social, emotional,
educational, and physical history.
With DBH to discuss the youth's mental health (MH) prior to making
the appropriate recommendation in MH Court, which is designed to
serve human trafficking victims. With the Fresno Superior Court to
identify issues impacting youth and services needed for the minor's
rehabilitation, to enforce the Court's orders and bring any violations
to the Court's attention, to provide in-depth social study reports to
the Court, to provide feedback during hearings for the Court, District
Attorney's, or Public Defender's Offices, to support Youth Court, a
diversion program for participants designed to redirect their paths,
involve victims, and offer mediation.
With Community Justice Center to provide restorative justice
services to juveniles.

3.7. The Committee's ongoing role throughout the project will be to
review the progress of the project and provide oversight. Therefore,
the Committee plans to meet quarterly the first year and quarterly or
twice a year the two subsequent years.
Section IV: Capabilities and Qualifications
4.1. Fresno County Probation has been utilizing evidence-based
practices in their supervision of medium and high-risk participants
for many years. Probation utilizes the evidence-based STRONG-R
assessment tool to identify individual's risk to reoffend, to identify
the individual's stabilization and criminogenic needs, and to develop
a case plan. Our supervision staff are trained in evidence-based
practices as well as MI. The Department is currently in process of
implementing EPICS.
4.2. Turning Point, the contracted case management service
provider, was chosen through a Request for Proposal process in
accordance with Fresno County Purchasing requirements. The
provider has a proven track record of providing case management to
individuals in the criminal justice system as well as with those
involved or previously involved in gang activity. In addition, the
provider has demonstrated success in providing case management
services designed to address the stabilization and criminogenic
needs of these individuals.
A wide range of services are used to meet the needs of participants
identified through the evidence-based needs assessment. There are
many agencies in the community as well as County departments that
have a strong history in providing services to the target population.
Specifically, the services from existing County of Fresno contracts
will include the following:
• Transitional Housing is currently provided by Turning Point of
Central California. Turning Point currently provides transitional
housing and supportive services to individuals on ARPP and AB 109
supervision within Fresno County. Turning Point has provided
transitional housing services to Fresno County for approximately 10
years. In addition, the ARPP Program will issue vouchers for
extended stay motels to provide a less restrictive environment for
participants.
• Re-entry Employment Readiness Services is provided by B.I., Inc.
The services include Employment Readiness Track consisting of
Employment Skill Curriculum and Vocational Track to prepare
individuals for the workplace. Once this training is complete, B.I., Inc.
uses developed relationships with employers in the area to provide
job placement for participants.
• Construction Apprenticeship Program is currently provided by
Fresno Economic Opportunities Commission, Inc. This is a 12-week
program for adult offenders that was developed using input from
various trade unions and evidence-based material with the aim of
preparing and placing participants in various construction industry
jobs. The cognitive behavioral therapy program "Thinking for a
Change" is incorporated into this program.
Participants in need of mental health and substance abuse services
will be referred to the County's Behavioral Health Department. The
Behavioral Health Department will provide services at both pre- and
post-release.
The Fresno Housing Authority has reserved eleven housing
vouchers annually to provide rental assistance enabling recipients to
secure affordable, quality, permanent housing in diverse
neighborhoods throughout Fresno County.
A variety of other community programs, including mentoring,
educational outreach, and interactive journaling, are used to obtain
the needed services for the participants in the program. These
services will be chosen based on the ability of the agency to meet the
needs of the participants.
4.3. The Probation Department chairs the Community Corrections
Partnership's Executive Committee, to implement AB 109, and is
comprised of the Sheriff's, District Attorney's, and Public Defender's
Offices, Department of Behavioral Health, Fresno Superior Court, and
Fresno Police Department. To provide educational services for
incarcerated youth in the Juvenile Justice Campus, Probation has an
excellent and productive relationship with Fresno County Office of
Education, Focus Forward, Boys and Girls Club, school districts and
police departments of the cities nearby.
4.4. Case management services will be contracted based on a plan to
provide one manager per 40 participants. One DPO will be assigned
to this program to supervise the individuals and work with the case
managers to meet the goals of the program.
4.5. The Project Manager has been with Probation for more than 30
years. As a Deputy Chief Probation Officer (DC) the last 11, she has
overseen the Adult/AB109 Realignment, Juvenile, Juvenile Justice
Campus (JJC) Detention Facility, Personnel Development and
Research Division, and the Adult Divisions, and is currently
responsible for 101 employees.
The Manager who will oversee this program has been with Probation
for more than 25 years. As an Assistant Deputy Chief Probation
Officer (ADC) the last nine, he has supervised the staff in the JJC
Detention Facility and oversaw the Department's training for its
peace officers as the Training ADC, while also functioning as the JJC
Personnel ADC. As the supervisor for the Adult Field Special
Services Unit, he currently supervises 15 staff. This unit supervises
high-risk and specialized caseloads.
The DPO working directly with the participants and partners has been
with Probation more than 25 years. For the last two years he has
been assigned to the ARPP, prior to this assignment he worked with
the JJC Detention Facility as a Senior Group Counselor, DPO
assigned to school campuses, Adult AB109 Realignment, and the
Adult Field Services Domestic Violence Unit.
4.6. The DPO is responsible for day-to day oversight of the program
with the assistance of the ADC. The ADC is consulted and approves
extraordinary cases requesting assistance beyond standard needs
for service expenditures.
4.7. This proposal is requesting funding to support the ARPP
program developed and implemented in the prior grant cycle. If
awarded funding, the Fresno County Probation Department is
prepared to resume providing services. All contracts are in effect,
except for the motel vouchers for extended stay transitional housing
and the Batterer's Intervention Program. These are new interventions
we are proposing and would require the appropriate
purchasing/acquisition method to be determined and applied.
Section V: Project Evaluation and Monitoring
5.1. Assessing whether the identified needs from the case plan are
met will determine the effectiveness of providing case management
services to the participants. Caseworkers will be required to utilize a
case management system and document all services provided to
each participant and all activities conducted for each participant to
meet his/her stabilization and criminogenic needs as identified on
their evidence-based assessment. Probation utilizes a case
management system to track individuals on probation and their
progress. It is proposed that observations (i.e., assessments of each
of the stabilization and criminogenic needs being tracked as
described in Section 5.2) be taken at four time points every 12
months. Those time points will be Point 1- Baseline before Treatment
(i.e., at time of initial pre-release assessment), Point 2- 3 months,
Point- 3- 6 months, and Point 4- 12 months. The DPO assigned to this
program will be dedicated entirely to this program.
The DPO will be funded by this grant and all duties performed by the
DPO will be for this program. The DPO will monitor the services
provided in the case management contract and collaborate with case
managers to meet the goals of the program.
Our contracted research partner, California State University, Fresno
Criminology Department, will utilize the Mixed Methods and Quasi-
Experimental research designs to conduct the Local Evaluation Plan
and the Final Local Evaluation Report. It is not expected that random
assignment to conditions is either feasible or appropriate; thus, the
need for adopting a quasi-experimental design. A Mixed Methods
design integrates both qualitative analyses and quantitative
statistics. The qualitative component will be comprised of
Triangulation and/or Explanatory techniques, surveys, semi-
structured interviews and focus groups with clients, Case Managers,
and persons with direct involvement in the program from the various
criminal justice and service provider partners (i.e., generally, those
departments and agencies represented on the local JAG Steering
Committee). These assessments will be repeated for every year of
the program's existence. Pre and multiple post-data points will
increase the likelihood of detecting the effects of changes in
criminogenic needs on recidivism. Further, such an observational
strategy provides important statistical benefits by increasing the
number of data points and thus increasing the power of subsequent
statistical analyses. These data point observations are largely for
statistical and evaluative purposes (i.e., to detect individual level
changes); they are independent of any schedule that may be
instituted by Case Managers, Deputy Probation Officers, and other
service providers for purposes of monitoring individual clients. There
will also be participants who recidivate, "drop-out", or no longer fall
under the jurisdiction of the program (evaluation of some of these
individuals may require their voluntary participation). Data from these
qualitative sources will pertain to areas such as program satisfaction,
perceived program success, program strengths and weaknesses,
etc. Results of the qualitative data collection may also contribute to
the quantitative analyses. The quantitative assessment will include
descriptive statistics and, where appropriate, multiple regression
analyses, calculation of Pearson's correlation coefficients (the
degree to which two variables are linearly related), Cohen's Kappa
coefficient and/or Intraclass correlations (to assess interrater
reliability, i.e., a measure of quality assurance, if needed). Finally, a
number of cognitive and psychometric assessment tools will be
considered for inclusion in the evaluation. These may include such
tests as the Level of Service Inventory-revised, Psychological
Inventory of Criminal Thinking Styles, the Criminal Thinking Scale,
and the Criminal Cognition Scale.
5.2. The goals of the ARPP are to reduce recidivism and improve
public safety. The assessment and case plan will result in the
identification of such critical factors as Job Training/Employment,
Education, Substance Abuse Treatment, Life/Coping Skills, Mental
Health Services, Antisocial Cognitions, Family/Marital Relations,
Leisure/Recreational Activities, Housing, and Food Security, among
others. These critical factors will comprise the program objectives
(i.e., specific measurable accomplishments intended to advance
program goals). The following criminogenic and stabilization needs
will be tracked: 1) Education 2) Community Employment 3) Friends 4)
Residential 5) Family 6) Alcohol/Drug Use 7) Mental Health 8)
Aggression 9) Attitudes/Behaviors 10) Coping Skills.
5.3. Addressing the participant's needs as identified in the
assessment and the designed case plan will determine the
participant's success/failure in the project. During and after
completion of the program, the individual's recidivism will be tracked.
Achievement of the objectives will be by measuring, for example, the
extent to which we are able to provide housing for those who do not
have it, employment, or job training for those who need it, coping
skills for those who have none, and so on. Ultimately, we will
determine which of these needs, and in what combination, are most
important in reducing recidivism.
