SUBJECT: JUVENILE ACCOUNTABILITY GRANT PROGRAM
CAO RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant (JAIBG) Application Submittal to
the State Office of Criminal Justice Planning.
2. Renew participation in the JAIBG program by accepting the JAIBG grant award in the
amount of$7,870
3. Authorize the Chief of Police to execute all grant related documents.
DISCUSSION
Annually, since 1999, the City Council has approved participation and matching funds in a
Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant (JAIBG) program. The grant available to the City
of San Luis Obispo this year is $7,870. The Juvenile Diversion Program areas funded by this
grant are a part-time program coordinator through Family Care Network and diversion services
including mediation, counseling,esteem building, and family skills training within the city.
The base annual cost to operate the City's.Juvenile Diversion Program is approximately $19,000.
The Police Department budget currently includes $10,000 for this program. The JAIBG award
will fund the remaining program costs. For the City to continue to benefit from this grant
program, matching funds in the amount of$874 are required.
To date, the Juvenile Diversion Program has exceeded all expectations. It was originally
estimated that program services would be provided to 20-30 youthful offenders per year.
However, the need is much greater with over 80 at-risk youth or first offenders processed
annually.
FISCAL IMPACT
Matching City funds in the amount of$874 are available in the Police Department budget.
ALTERNATIVES
Decline to renew participation in the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant program and
do not apply for JAIBG funding. Staff does not recommend this alternative, as it would
negatively impact the Juvenile Diversion Program and significantly reduce the juvenile services
provided within our community by the San Luis Obispo Police Department.
