Introduction

In an effort to enhance local community corrections planning and align local funding opportunities with the state fiscal year, the DCJS’ Office of Probation and Correctional Alternatives (OPCA) has developed a two- step strategy. The first step was to provide continued funding for all probation and ATI programs through June 30, 2012. To accomplish this, funding notices were sent to jurisdictions and new contracts (extensions) were developed where required. Probation Departments and ATI Programs were notified that their 2011 plans/applications were extended for six months to June 30, 2012 to provide the basis for the funding for the period January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012.

The second step in this strategy is for localities requesting continued probation and/or alternative to incarceration funding to develop plans and applications for the period July 1, 2012 – June 30, 2013. This preserves the integrity of both plans and the separate allocations of state resources to probation and alternatives to incarceration programming. As part of the planning process, counties/City of New York are requested to review and consider important juvenile and adult criminal justice data in order to better plan and coordinate interventions and the effective use of local and state criminal justice resources and funding, with the goal of reducing offender re-arrest, effectuating offender behavioral change, reducing unnecessary reliance on incarceration, and reducing victimization. This new plan contains seven (7) sections including: Instructions, Criminal/Juvenile Justice Data, Local Program Inventory, Planning, Training Inventory, Annual Probation Plan and Application, and Annual ATI Plan and Application.

All of the questions in this Application must be answered and submitted together as part of the planning process.

Section A: Plan and Application Instructions

1)  Plan Time Period – The developed plan and related probation and ATI applications will cover the time period July 1, 2012- June 30, 2013.

2)  Planning Structure- The planning process may include the expansion of a current County/City planning committee or structure to include responsibility for planning for both the juvenile and criminal justice processing systems. At a minimum, the planning committee should include the the Probation Director/Commissioner, all of the members of the ATI/Criminal Justice Advisory Board, and any other individuals deemed essential by the Mayor, County Executive, or Chairman of the Board of Supervisors or Legislators. Localities may wish to include their local commissioners of social services and/or mental hygiene or other juvenile justice professionals. Attachment A should represent the members of the ATI/Criminal Justice Board, and additional representatives involved in the planning process.

3)  Section B: Local Criminal/Juvenile Justice Data – This section should be completed by the jurisdiction prior to any meetings which are scheduled to discuss the jurisdiction’s 2012-2013 criminal/juvenile justice strategy. It is intended that this data will inform planning and the development of the local strategy as reflected in Section D entitled Planning. All of the data required will be provided in County/City Tables as directed in each data question. The answers to these data questions should be submitted as part of your plan. All questions should be answered.

4)  Section C: Local Program Inventory – This inventory should be completed in two stages. The first stage is completion of information pertaining to programs available during 2011 which should be completed BEFORE the planning outlined in Section D: Planning occurs. The second stage is completion of the programming to be maintained, expanded, eliminated, or developed during 2012 based on the data and questions addressed during the planning process. It is intended that this program inventory will enable the locality’s to determine whether or not appropriate services are available to support the localities identified criminal/juvenile justice 2012-2013 strategy. This section should be completed in its entirety and submitted as part of your plan.

5)  Section D: Data Reviw and Planning – Once the data section and first part of the local program inventory are completed, the planning committee should meet to discuss and answer the questions provided in the Planning Section. This section includes conclusions reached by the committee regarding the criminal/juvenile justice strategies the locality will focus on during the period July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013 and a program gap analysis. This section should be completed and submitted as part of your plan.

6)  Section E: Local Training Inventory – This section identifies the specific types of training probation and ATI programs have attended in the prior year and the areas in which training is needed in 2012-2013 in order to support the localities criminal/juvenile justice strategy. This process will enable localities to pursue and consolidate training opportunities where appropriate. This section should be completed and submitted as part of your plan. Attachment B, which lists current staff members who have received training in Thinking For a Change, Motivational Interviewing, and Offender Workforce Development Specialist programs should also be completed and sent as part of your plan. This information is also to inform DCJS/OPCA’s annual training program.

7)  Section F: 2012-13 Annual Probation State Aid Plan and Application – The Annual Probation State Aid Plan application should be completed by the Probation Director/Commissioner and submitted to the County Executive, Chief Elected Official as part of the locality’s Plan.

8)  Section G: 2012-13 Annual ATI Service Plan and Application – The Annual ATI Service Plan and Application should be completed and approved by the ATI Advisory Board and submitted as part of the locality’s plan. The ATI Annual Plan should be in line with and supportive of your criminal/juvenile justice strategy.

The certification pages may be scanned and attached to the electronic document or sent to OPCA at DCJS/OPCA, 4 Tower Place, Albany NY 12203 via U.S. Postal Service.
