BY: HEALTH AND HUMAN RESOURCES - John H. Peterson, Chairperson
IN RE: ALTERNATIVES TO SECURE DETENTION OF STATUS OFFENDERS SECOND YEAR
CONTINUATION GRANT APPLICATION - JUVENILE COURT
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, numerous referrals are made to the Juvenile Court each year for
offenses related to the person's status as a juvenile rather than for criminal-
type violations; and
WHEREAS, these status-type offenses include such offenses as truancy from
home or school and incorrigibility at home or school; and
WHEREAS, the Juvenile Court presents the need to find alternative methods
of dealing with "status-type" offenders other than through secure detention; and
WHEREAS, to accomplish this goal there was established an Alternatives to
Secure Detention of Status Offenders program; and
WHEREAS, the Juvenile Court proposed to continue that program with three
staff members presently classified as Child Welfare Worker Trainees to be
reclassified as Child Welfare Worker I's; and
WHEREAS, the juvenile Court has indicated the program has been functioning
successfully during the period since it was implemented; and
WHEREAS, funding for the year of 1979 is available at 100%; and
WHEREAS, there is no obligation on the part of Oakland County to continue
funding in a third year.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Alternatives to Secure Detention of
Status Offenders extension be approved with no commitment on the part of Oakland
County to continue the program at County expense in future years, except as may
be approved by the Oakland County Board of Commissioners.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Juvenile Court make quarterly reports to the
Health and Human Resources Committee which will give this Committee a measurement
of the effectiveness of this program.
The Health and Human Resources Committee by John H. Peterson, Chairperson,
moves the adoption of the foregoing resolution.

FISCAL REPORT
TO: FINANCE COMMITTEE, PAUL E. KASPER, CHAIRPERSON
IN RE: ALTERNATIVES TO SECURE DETENTION GRANT
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Finance Committee has reviewed the proposed grant and finds:
1) The grant is for second year funding in the amount of $276,559,
2) Of the $276,599, 100% or $276,599 is Federally funded,
3) The grant covers a period of January 1, 1979 through December
31, 1979,
4) Three and one-half additional positions are called for in the grant.
Application or acceptance of this grant would not establish these
positions. Personnel Committee approval is still required.
5) The grant as applied for is $84,247 greater than the current program.
A complete cost breakdown and comparison is provided in the attached
schedule,
6) Funding beyond the second year is not anticipated. Should the County
wish to continue this program, it would have to do so at County
expense. (It is possible 50% of County expense would be reimbursed
under State Child Care Subsidy, however such cannot be confirmed at
this time.)
7) Acceptance of this grant does not necessarily bind the County to
fund the program after the second year, however a letter of intent
to continue this program if successful is requested.
The Finance Committee, by Paul E. Kasper, Chairperson, recommends
acceptance of the foregoing report, and the referral of the information con-
tained therein to the Public Services Committee in accordance with Miscel-
laneous Resolution #8145 - Revised Federal and State Grant Application Pro-
cedures.
