Resolution No. 18-06-01 for Probation Department's participation in the FY 2018-2019 Family Counseling Program

Background Information

For the past seventeen years, Gila County has been providing a matching fund requirement for the Gila County Probation Department to participate in the Family Counseling Program through the Arizona Supreme Court, Administrative Office of the Courts, Juvenile Justice Services Division.

Evaluation

As provided for in A.R.S. §8-264, a county may elect to participate in the family counseling program by resolution of the county's board of supervisors. The supreme court shall then certify a list of counties which have elected to participate and shall inform those counties of the amounts of funding available to them.

Conclusion

The monies for this program provide services for strengthening family relationships and prevention of juvenile delinquency.

In the past, when the Board of Supervisors has adopted this resolution the County Finance Department has allocated the cash match requirement to be taken from the Probation General Fund under line item 4340-45 -Miscellaneous matching funds expense.

Recommendation

The Gila County Probation Department recommends the adoption of Board Resolution No. 18-06-01 certifying that the Board of Supervisors will provide $1,954 in matching funds for the participation in the Family Counseling Program.

Suggested Motion

Approval to adopt Resolution No. 18-06-01 authorizing Gila County Probation Department's participation in the FY 2018-2019 Family Counseling Program through the Arizona Supreme Court, Administrative Office of the Courts, Juvenile Justice Services Division, and certifying that a matching fund requirement of $1,954 for the Program will be provided by the County.
