Background and Discussion:
On February 8, 2021, Commissioners Court approved Justice Administration Department budget request which allocated funds for the creation of the Youth Justice Community Reinvestment Fund. This fund will provide support to build local capacity for non-profit organizations to provide prevention and intervention services to youth at risk or who are involved in the juvenile justice system. This is an amendment to correct the Limit of Appropriation.
Expected Impact:
The Youth Justice Community Reinvestment Fund will build sustainable capacity in home grown community organizations that provide resources to youth, and their families, at risk or who are involved in the juvenile justice system. The intermediary organization will identify community resources and gaps in services then select prospective grantee organizations. The intermediary will support grantees with coaching and infrastructure development. After a period of time to build grantee capacity, the intermediary will then assess grantee performance. The intermediary is essential in developing capacity in areas of Harris County historically and currently underserved by a robust network of service providers to families in need. As youth are diverted from juvenile justice systems to community-based care, the fiscal impact will be a reduction in the expenditure of resources to detain, provide case management, and other county expenditures to youth involved in the justice system.
