30 <br /> and 1 juvenile on electronic monitoring for 6 days. The number of school related offenses is <br /> relatively high and about 5 were truancy related. There was also a good number of school <br /> related offense complaints being made by parents and not SROs. If an SRO decides not to make <br /> a complaint,the parent(s) is informed that they are able to make the complaint directly to DJJ if <br /> they would like. <br /> March: 3 distinct juveniles, 4 complaints, 3 approved for court, 8 put on a plan or contract, and 1 <br /> school related offense. Electronic monitoring is often used in place of commitment to a YDC or <br /> when a youth is transitioning out of YDC and back home. <br /> JCPC Business <br /> Funding Committee Recommendations—School Liaison chose not to seek funding for FY 16-17 <br /> and did not submit an application. Their program model is case management and does not fit <br /> within the JCPC program model guidelines. Going forward they will use other funding sources <br /> to make up what JCPC was funding. <br /> Reintegration Support Network did request funding; however,the Funding Committee is not <br /> recommending their program for funding because the mentoring model the agency was <br /> presenting does not fit within the JCPC mentoring model guidelines. The JCPC would strongly <br /> encourage the agency to apply for funding next year and are willing to work with them <br /> throughout the year to see if there is a way to design their program to fit the JCPC model without <br /> losing the integrity of the program. <br /> The committee then looked at what each program was asking for in increased amounts and chose <br /> to fund approximately 40% of the increased amount. Because there is not a quorum, we cannot <br /> vote on the recommendations but the floor is open for any questions and comments. We will <br /> look to do an email vote within the next week. <br /> Conference/Training Requests—A call was sent out to the programs and board members to <br /> submit requests for financial assistance to attend conferences and trainings. Usually the trainings <br /> and conferences come down from the State and are related to the JCPC and the work we are <br /> doing within our state. This time we have the funds available to be able to offer programs and <br /> board members the opportunity to attend something that is particular to their area of interest and <br /> expertise. We received a number of requests and are able to fund all opportunities for the <br /> requests amounts. <br /> Rebekah will coordinate with each program/person the payment or reimbursement of the <br /> approved expenses. Additionally,there is an expectation that the programs will present at the <br /> next meeting what they learned and how it will be applied to serving our youth. <br /> Membership Update—We have three board members who have not come to meetings and <br /> according to our bylaws they are no longer in good standing. Meg will reach out to those <br /> individuals, or the person who initially was the point of contact getting them on the board,to see <br /> if they are still interested in serving. The positions Meg will contact are the Orange County <br /> School Superintendent, Chapel Hill Police, and Juvenile Defense Attorney. The Member of the <br /> Faith Community representative isn't out of compliance yet; however,he has yet to attend a <br /> meeting. Jay Bryan will follow-up with him to determine his continued interest in serving. <br /> Continuum of Services Update —Rebekah emailed the Continuum of Services out to everyone <br /> and got some feedback and updates back. There are now just a few areas left that we can <br />
