  3. State Community Corrections Board Priorities • The State Community Corrections Board adopted priorities to strengthen the focus on State and local community corrections policy, practice and programming. • Reduce prison admissions for: • Straddle Cell Offenders • Probation violators • Emphasis on the use of community-based sanctions and services for straddle cell offenders. • Creative use of jail time in conjunction with other community-based supervision for priority offenders.

  4. Community Corrections ProgramsFY 2010 • Comprehensive Plans and Services • 53 CCABs comprising 74 counties were awarded grants. • Funds were awarded to support nearly 300 local programs and services. • Probation Residential Services • 53 CCABs were allocated residential services in 63 counties. • Drunk Driver Jail Reduction & Community Treatment Program • Grants were awarded to 40 CCABs • Since the inception of the program in January 2004, the number of drunk driver offenders in programs on a monthly average has increased from 285 to 1,301 through September 2009.

  5. Community Corrections Program Options • Work Crews • Risk/Needs Assessments • Educational/Vocational programs with linkages to local school districts, mental health agencies, and Michigan Works! • Outpatient substance abuse counseling • Residential substance abuse treatment • Intensive Supervision • Drug and alcohol testing programs • Electronic Monitoring for misdemeanants • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy • Mental health services • Pretrial screening and supervision

  6. Community Corrections Program Utilization • In FY 2009, there were 43,091 offenders enrolled into community corrections funded programs. • 27,228 Felons (Discharged: 85.5% Successful) • 15,863 Misdemeanants (Discharged: 85.5% Successful)

  7. Impact on Prison Commitments • MDOC Statistical Reports indicate that in 1989 the prison commitment rate (PCR) was 34.7% (11,825 offenders) and decreased to 25% in the mid 1990’s and remained relatively stable through 2003. • During 2003, the Department placed renewed emphasis on the use of community corrections sanctions/services for specific offender populations. As a result, the rate steadily declined to 20.6% through FY 2005. • In FY 2006 the rate climbed back to 21.7% as a result of some highly publicized crimes earlier in the year. In the past few years the rated has steadily declined - 18.8% through FY 2009. • If the PCR in 2009 was similar to the 1989 PCR (34.7%), MDOC would have had incarcerated nearly 9,000 more offenders at a cost of well over $250 million.
