Executive Committee of the Community Justice Collaborating Council – Special Meeting – August 6, 2019 12:00 PM Minutes of August 6, 2019 were accepted as presented. RESULT: ACCEPTED PUBLIC COMMENT BUSINESS ITEMS 1. CJCC and Treatment Alternatives & Diversion (TAD) Financial Reports Mike O'Keefe, CJCC Coordinator, discussed the CJCC and Treatment Alternatives & Diversion (TAD) grant budgets. Both budgets are within established guidelines. The 2020 TAD grant application will include a funding request for an Intoxicated Driver's Intervention Program (IDIP). This request will fall under TAD Program Expansion funding added through the Governor's budget and counties not currently receiving TAD funds will have the first opportunity to receive assistance. St. Croix County is in the fourth year of a five year non competitive grant cycle so we should continue to receive$154,500 annually for each of the next two years. RESULT: DISCUSSED 2. Review November 14, 2019 CJCC Meeting Date Mike O'Keefe, CJCC Coordinator, states he attempted to move the November 14, 2019 CJCC meeting to another day and time to accommodate the proposed domestic violence training but was unable to do so given the judicial calendar. Discussion was held and a decision was made to cancel the November CJCC meeting. RESULT: DISCUSSED 3. Review CJCC Subcommittee Progress Discussion was held on progress by CJCC Subcommittees. Judge Needham announced St. Croix County was not selected for the Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) grant. He also announced he will appoint Judge Waterman to the CJCC Substance Abuse Subcommittee. RESULT: DISCUSSED 4. Review Intoxicated Driver Intervention Program (IDIP) Goals & Objectives Discussion was held on the need for an Intoxicated Driver Intervention Program (IDIP) in St. Croix County (SCC). This issue has been reviewed by the CJCC Substance Abuse Subcommittee and it was determined there is a need for intervention strategies for OWI 2nd, 3rd, and eligible 4ths in our County. Mike O'Keefe, CJCC Coordinator reported there is a potential for start up funding through the TAD Grant. He states Governor Evers has set aside additional diversion funding for new programming and this would be an appropriate use of these monies, but this would be a very competitive process. O'Keefe states they will submit a grant to support a staff position in the District Attorney's Office as a program like this would be under a diversion agreement. Kate Avoles asked about finding a way to start a community service component for this program. RESULT: DISCUSSED 5.
