Tina Sykes introduced her son Austin. He is <br /> a senior at Orange High School and plays varsity football and baseball and wants to go to NC <br /> State for college . <br /> Discussion of New Monthly Reporting — All the consultants statewide use some type of form for <br /> program providers to report out to JCPCs . This report is NOT a required state report. Gave all <br /> her counties a few months to use and report out on how well the format is working. Would like <br /> to hear thoughts from the program providers on the use of the form and from JCPCs on whether `ri <br /> I <br /> the form is beneficial to hear reports from the providers (is the information on the form helpful) . <br /> Some counties have tweaked the form to suit their needs, one county voted not to use the form at <br /> all, and another decided that the form was only to be seen by the funding committee . <br /> • The most time consuming part is listing problem behaviors/risks and reasons why youth <br /> were admitted. Not time consuming but feel like I am reporting again on information that <br /> is already entered in NCALLIES and feel like it is duplicated effort. Denise stated that <br /> NCALLIES will be able to report out on a lot more but right now it is just the <br /> measureable objectives report. <br /> • Suggested by a board member that JCPC come up with a list of 5 , or so , items to be r <br /> reported out on instead of requiring the use of form. <br /> �s <br />
