Background and Discussion:

Under the authority of the Harris County Juvenile Board, these grants provide for salaries, fringe benefits, residential services, community based programs, and mental health services that enhance Juvenile Probation programs. A total of 251 staff will have either all or a part of their salaries and fringe benefits paid for by these grants.

 

 

Expected Impact:

These funds allow the department to continue providing probation services to juveniles placed in county operated juvenile facilities and juveniles in the community into the 2022-2023 year.

 

 

Alternative Options:

Without these funds, other funds, and/or local funds would have to be used to carry out juvenile probation operations.
