30 <br />CJPF Community Corrections Plan <br />Application for Continuation of Implementation Funds <br />_ (See reverse for detailed instructions) <br />1. Executive summary, continued. Use separate sheets in place of this form, i£ necessary. <br />Pre-Trial Release Program of Orange and Chatham Counties <br />The Orange-Chatham C1PP Advisory Board established apre-trial release program in FY 199-9E <br />with the initial funding received from the Department of Correction. This pro~?r'am is provided <br />through contractual arrangements with grange-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 Attome~~'s Office and <br />lYfagistrates, increased significantly. A major focus for the year w'as troubleshooting and relining <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. A statistical analysis of programs <br />outcomes is included as ATTACHIYZENT I. (l~iOTE: Due to the earlier grant submission date, the <br />statistical analysis reflects on a shorter reporting period than prior years.) <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 overaJ.l jail population. Examples of such services include: <br />• securing the paycheck of an inmate £rom 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 intrate <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 with 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 />interviewing. 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 />
