Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request by the Sheriff for approval of match contributions in connection with the FY 2023 Jail Diversion Grant Program. The Sheriff is providing a match contribution of $1,366,285 for jail diversion, and $3,555,840 for community mental health.

Background and Discussion:
The Jail Diversion Grant is administered by the Harris Center for Mental Health and IDD. The Sheriff’s Office helps to provide the required match through contributions related to the 24-bed jail diversion pod, JPC property valuation, and the costs of personnel assigned to certain mental health-related tasks.
Expected Impact:
The contributions from the Sheriff help to meet the grant’s match requirements.
Alternative Options:
Not providing these contributions would make it difficult for Harris County to meet the grant’s match requirements.
