Use separate sheets in place of this form, if necessary. <br />Pre-Trial Release Program of Orange and Chatham Counties <br />The Orange- Chatham C, PP Advisory Board established a pre -trial release program in FY 1005-96 <br />with the initial fundma received from'the Department of Correction. This program is provided <br />through contractual arrangements with Orange - Chatham Alternative Sentencing, Inc.. a local non- <br />profit agency. <br />During FY 1997 -98, the third year of operation, the Pre -Trial Release Program increased the links <br />Of facilitating information through the 15 -B judicial district. Recognition and familiarity ,%ith <br />program services by criminal justice partners, such as the staff of the District Attorneys, Office and <br />Magistrates, increased significantly. A major focus for the year was troubleshooting and rennin) <br />the process for listing the inmates being only held in the Orange County jail for misdemeanor <br />offenses. Releases also increased in the Chatham County jail. <br />Pre -Trial Release Services moves inmate- related data expeditiously through the criminal justice <br />system- As a result, the program facilitates criminal justice processes, 'inmate release, the well <br />being of inmates and the overall jail population. Examples of such services include: <br />• securing the paycheck of an inmate from an employer so that the inmate might post bond; <br />• checking the courthouse records to ascertain whether. a court case was disposed of and <br />discovering that a warrant was mistakenly listed as outstanding which resulted in an inmate <br />being mistakenly jailed; <br />• calling the Office of the Public Offender to inquire about the arrangement of bond hearings; <br />• as an officer of-the court, reporting requested information to the judges; and <br />• offering therapeutic interactions to inmates struggling w7th adjustments to inmate life or <br />needing referrals to rehabilitation resources. <br />The daily flow of incoming inmates dictates the particular tasks required of the program evaluator. <br />Addressing these special needs is in addition to conducting the daily standard screening and <br />interviewina. Because this is the only service of its kind serving the county jails, the pre -trial <br />release program makes a significant impact on the criminal justice system. The professional and <br />expeditious nature of the work accomplished also adds to the success of this program. <br />
