<br />
<br />Minutes Review and Approval
<br />The Council reviewed the minutes from December 2018. Donna King motioned for minutes to be
<br />approved and was seconded by Carol McClelland. Motion carried unanimously.
<br />
<br />JCPC Business
<br />Risk & Needs Committee – Subcommittee met, reviewed juvenile justice data for FY 17-18, and identified
<br />recommended program funding priorities for FY19-20.
<br />
<br />RFP Review & Vote – RFP FY date needs to be updated from 2018-19 to 2019-20 (Denise will correct
<br />and send to Rebekah). The anticipated county allotment is $277,731 with a 30% local/county match and
<br />projected advertisement date of February 4, 2019 and deadline of March 11, 2019. As you look down the
<br />announcement, the targeted program types are identified, and a supplemental sheet with program
<br />descriptions are attached.
<br />The county allocation amount remains the same as previous years. Any funding for Raise the Age (JCPC
<br />Tier II) expansion will be outside this RFP and county allocation.
<br />Amanda Farris motioned for the RFP to be adopted with one identified correction (update FY to 2019-20)
<br />and was seconded by Donna King. Motion carried unanimously with Carol McClelland and Stephanie
<br />Jones abstaining from the vote).
<br />
<br />“Raise the Age” – Every JCPC must submit an Annual Plan to their County Commissioners that
<br />addresses specific work of the council (Risk & Needs, Funding, etc.) and some of the documents that
<br />Denise will review are part of the Annual Plan. The “Continuum of Services – At a Glance” provides an
<br />overview of services available within Orange County for all youth, from at-risk to post-release youth.
<br />Please review the Continuum and bring updates/suggestions to the next meeting.
<br />The “Orange County Plan Addendum” is new this year to help each county start thinking about how
<br />“Raise the Age” will impact their community and programming. Counties and programs are encouraged
<br />to start thinking about where gaps in services may be and what the needs of this new population are. The
<br />addendum will serve as a “wish list” to help the Council identify where expansion should happen. When
<br />counties receive the Tier II (aka “Raise the Age”) funds, they can either expand programs that are
<br />currently funded under the RFP or they can go through another RFP process. With North Carolina being
<br />the last state to raise the age, we have learned a lot from the others and are hearing that restorative justice
