Monterey County Community Corrections A. Data Collection Action: Received the AB 109 Statistical Report for the fourth quarter of FY 2013-14, April to June 2014. Director Nancy Hatton presented the AB 109 Statistical Report. Comments made by CCP members regarding the AB 109 Statistical Report: Sheriff Miller reported that the population at the jail had been in the mid-900, but it had increased recently to 1,010. Chief Edmundo Rodriguez indicated there had been a spike in gang violence that could have contributed to the increase. Assistant District Attorney (ADA) Berkley Brannon recommended collecting data on the cumulative total, from the start of realignment, of successful terminations for Mandatory Supervision and Post Release Community Supervision (PRCS) cases. Department of Social Services (DSS) Director Elliott Robinson suggested adding an annual cumulative total for all categories listed in the report. Director Hatton reported that the AB 109 report for the second year of realignment will be provided in the near future.
Public Defender James Egar recommended collecting additional data on the Adult Day Reporting Center (ADRC) program: 1) number of clients at the end of the month; 2) number of clients referred by Probation; 3) number of parolees participating; and 4) number of monthly terminations. PD Egar also reported that the number of inmates housed in out-of-county facilities was increasing.

Receive the final report on the pretrial assessment from the Crime and Justice Institute (CJI) Action: A motion was made by Director Robinson, seconded by Sheriff Miller to: 1) receive the final report on the pretrial assessment from CJI; 2) authorize Probation to establish a workgroup, including staff from the Courts, District Attorney, Public Defender, and local law enforcement agencies, to review and categorize recommendations by short, mid, and long-term implementation, and/or explain what could not be implemented; and 3) provide a follow-up report to the CCP at the next meeting. Vote: Passed 6:0 (Abstained: Minnie Monarque) Comments made by CCP members regarding the pretrial assessment report: ADA Brannon reported that CJI has a particular vision for pretrial releases (i.e.: conducting riskassessments and no bail) that does not align with California State law; all counties are required to have a bail schedule. He inquired about the usefulness of conducting risk-assessments in defining bail which is based on offense. Public Defender James Egar recommended pursuing enhancing pretrial releases, and researching other risk-assessment tools that are culturally competent. Chief Rodriguez indicated that the risk-assessment tool might also help reduce the number of bookings from police agencies. Public comments regarding the pretrial assessment report: A public comment was received from Tom Lee, MacGregor Eddy, Gary Karnes, Michelle Welsh, and Taina Vargas-Edmond. 4.

The additional deputy would transport and supervise inmates needing medical treatment outside of the County Jail.
Public Defender James Egar expressed concerns with: 1) lack of transparency in the process; 2) irregular procedure for a large amount of funding request; 3) urgency, and 4) lack of data to support the funding allocation. PD Egar suggested saving the funds for other critical realignment matters, such as: alternatives to incarceration, substance abuse treatment, housing and employment services, and Probation supervision. Assistant District Attorney Berkley Brannon indicated that the BOS had unanimously approved the funding allocation to the Sheriff s Office, and that the Sheriff s Office had been conservative in spending the AB 109 funds already allocated to them.

SUMMARY OF KEY FINDINGS AB109 REPORT YEAR 2 - MONTEREY COUNTY PROBATION DEPARTMENT OCTOBER 2014 Introduction, Methodology and Limitations Introduction California s Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011 transferred supervision and funding for managing lower-level offenders from the State to local counties. Monterey County implemented the provisions of the Act on October 1, 2011. Beginning on October 1, 2011, the Monterey County Probation Department began post release community supervision (PRCS) of offenders entering the County from State prison, and the Superior Court of California, Monterey County, began sentencing under the provisions of 1170(h) of the California Penal Code. Methodology Offenders released from prison and sent to Monterey County from October 1, 2011 - September 30, 2012 were identified and individually tracked for one year to determine if they committed a violation, were re-arrested, were convicted of a new crime, or returned to prison during the first year of their supervision. Individuals arrested and convicted under 1170(h) and sentenced to County Jail were also tracked during this same period. In addition, demographic, assessment, and service utilization data were tracked on an individual level for this time period. Analysis was limited to the data on events occurring from 10/1/11 through 9/30/2013 for the PRCS and 1170(h) cohorts. Data included sentence, charge and case data from the Courts; demographic, violations, warrant, Ohio Risk Assessment Scale (ORAS), and mandatory supervision data from Probation; conviction dates and type from the District Attorney; and service/program data from Behavioral Health, Turning Point, Department of Social Services, Office of Employment Training, the Day Reporting Center, and from Introspect and jail programs. This second report describes the first year experiences of individuals who were released/sentenced under AB109 from 10/1/11 through 9/30/12. An individual s status as an AB109, 1170(h) individual is based on the date his/her case was sentenced to 1170(h)-Jail, lower, middle or upper term. For 1170(h), information from the case files, whose file dates may predate this status determination, have been included. An individual s status as a PRCS participant is based on the date Probation begins supervision of those assigned to its jurisdiction. For PRCS, case file data post-dates start of supervision. Counts of relevant events including but not limited to filing dates, violation dates, petition dates, conviction dates, and sanction dates which occurred beyond the twelve month period post-start of PRCS or 1170(h) determination (sentence date), are not included in this report. It should be noted that data for 38 PRCS individuals were not included in the analysis due to an operational definition process that took place before analysis was conducted. This definition is based on the assumption that the PRCS individuals who died, were dismissed, or were transferred to another county within 3 months of start of supervision are sufficiently different 1 P a g e
from the rest of the PRCS cohort in terms of length of time supervised and engagement in services, that they are significant outliers and should not be included. The three-month cut point was also supported by the State Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR), in consultation between Kevin Gaffle and Monterey County Probation. Limitations Analysis was limited by the completeness and accuracy of data available from all sources for the time period. An individual s status as an AB109, 1170(h) individual may be based on information that pre-dated the start of AB109. In order to capture this information, the data search was set to count events (violations and filing dates from the Court data) six months before the start of AB109. Counts of relevant events which occurred before this cutoff are not included in this report. Post Release Community Supervision (PRCS) Demographic/Characteristic Information A total of 329 individuals were released from prison to Monterey County during this reporting period. The majority were male (87.5%), Hispanic or Latino/Latina (53.9%), between 30-39 years of age and without a high school diploma. Caucasian males made up the second largest demographic group. Nearly three-fourths had at least three prior felony convictions. Approximately 6 in 10 scored high on their risk assessment, indicating the need for a higher level of supervision. 1 Although more than twothirds were released to permanent housing, a substantial number (26.2%) were released homeless or in a temporary housing situation and would need some type of housing services. 1 The Ohio Risk Assessment System (ORAS) utilized by Monterey County Probation allows classification of risk groups based on their likelihood to recidivate, identifies dynamic risk factors that can be used to prioritize programmatic needs and identify potential barriers to treatment. The percentage is necessarily based on the N having the ORAS (230), and though smaller than the total N (329) in descriptions, is a representative sample of all PRCS. 2 P a g e
Arrests and Convictions Within One Year of Release: 27.1% had at least one arrest resulting in a court action. 26.4% had at least one revocation. 27.7% were convicted of a new felony or misdemeanor crime. 16.4% were convicted of one or more new felonies. 7 in 10 of those who were convicted of a new felony were assessed high risk. Cases Closed 20.1% had their cases closed within one year of supervision. 2 Services Nearly half of the population was served by Monterey County Behavioral Health. 7 in 10 of those served by Behavioral Health were assessed high risk and the majority were diagnosed with substance abuse. During the first year, 16.4% participated in the Day Reporting Center. 1170h Local Community Supervision Demographic/Characteristic Information A total of 304 individuals were sentenced to a term of imprisonment in county jail pursuant to 1170(h) PC for this reporting period. The majority were males between 20-29 years of age. Most were for property or drug convictions. Only 4.4% of the total received a split sentence. One-third of those sentenced (106) were released from jail during the first year. Approximately one-third received programs in jail related to Substance Use/Abuse. 2 Anyone on PRCS continuously for one year with no violations that resulted in a custodial sanction shall be discharged by operation of law. 3 P a g e
Convictions Post Release 2 in 10 were convicted of a new crime within one year following their release from jail. Of those released from jail, 23.9% that experienced no programming in jail had convictions after release, whereas 14.3% of those with programming in jail had convictions after release. Convictions were lower for individuals who received programming while in the jail. 4 P a g e

Monterey County Community Corrections Partnership Quarterly Report: July 1, 2014 - September 30, 2014 -Revised Post Release community Supervision (PRCS) active cases each month: The active Mandatory Supervision caseload continues to increase each month In the last quarter 29% of all 1170(h) local prison sentences were Mandatory Supervision sentences. When inmates are released with Mandatory Supervision, they have an opportunity to participate in all AB109 related rehabilitative services as well the additional support and supervision provided by their Probation Officer.
AB109 Demographic Data All data submitted represents Mandatory Supervision and PRCS people who had an open case during the quarter. N=350 n=291 N=350 N=350 Probation utilizes the ORAS (Ohio Risk Assessment System) to calculate an individual s risk to re-offend. Effective probation supervision utilizing evidence based practices indicate that those with a score of moderate to high are most likely to benefit from rehabilitate services. The individuals who score in the very high range for re-offense are closely supervised and monitored by a team of 2 probation officers, whose positions are dedicated to assuring compliance with terms and conditions and searching for those who have absconded.

Final Report to Monterey County re: Technical Assistance March September 2014 Background COCHS was contracted by Monterey County for a 7- month engagement beginning in March 2014 to provide technical assistance to county agencies on leveraging allowable federal health care dollars for health coverage and treatment for justice-involved populations in Monterey County. The desired result was for county general funds traditionally spent on health care for vulnerable, uninsured justice-involved individuals to become available for reinvestment in additional justice, safety, and health care services that would further improve outcomes across these sectors. Scope of Work Over the life of the contract, COCHS provided technical assistance and facilitation to the Monterey County Probation Department, Sheriff s Office, Department of Social Services, Health Department, and Administrative Office to develop strategies to enroll arrestees and jailed individuals in Medi-Cal in order to increase access to health care services for those individuals upon release from custody and to allow the County to claim Medi-Cal reimbursement for qualified, jailed individuals who require in-patient hospital care during the period of their incarceration. COCHS met monthly with County leadership (5 in-person meetings and numerous conference calls); presented information about the Affordable Care Act and new healthrelated opportunities for the county and jail-involved individuals at two public meetings subject to the Brown Act; conducted site visits to the jail, Probation Reentry Center, and the Day Reporting Center; conducted key informant interviews with local service providers, and provided regular updates on the progress and process of our work.
