She said there <br /> 11 were no 0-18 in any category in diversion, and it seems the focus is on re-entry. She asked if <br /> 12 there are no 0 to 18-year-olds involved and what is the plan to service the strategy of early <br /> 13 intervention. <br /> 14 Cait Fenhagen, Criminal Justice Resource Director, said there is a separate youth <br /> 15 diversion program and that it was funded by the county. <br /> 16 Commissioner Richards said she was interested in the plan for early intervention for the <br /> 17 future. <br /> 18 Cait Fenhagen said it is a priority overall. She said it is one of the listed priorities so they <br /> 19 will be looking for applicants from the community. She said there will be more intervention <br /> 20 proposals in the future. <br /> 21 Quintana Stewart said there are representatives from the schools on the committee. <br /> 22 Commissioner Hamilton said she would be interested in the community assessment and <br /> 23 hearing from people not involved with the justice system. <br /> 24 Quintana Stewart said they want to use the sequential intercept mapping system. She <br /> 25 said they are in the process of finalizing that system specifically for opioid mitigation strategies <br /> 26 and they have been in touch with a facilitator that uses that system. <br /> 27 Commissioner Greene said the recommended projects are a responsive process to the <br /> 28 community. <br /> 29 Chair Bedford asked if anyone from Housing is on the committee. <br />
