The team members paid by the court funding unit (Oakland County) are the probation supervisor/DTC coordinator, 50% of one full-time probation officer, 5% of the time of another full time probation officer and assistance from clerical positions. The grant application requests two positions: one full time Probation Officer I and the continued general clerical. A site visit at 52-4 District Court DTC was conducted by SCAO was conducted April 30, 2014 and found the program to be in full compliance with the 10 Key Components. They did recommend, as quoted from the completed review May 27_ 2014, "Generally, best practices indicate a 50:1 ratio of drug court participants to case manager. Due to a growing caseload, SCAO recommended creating a full-time position for the case manager..." Our caseload has continued to expand and as of 4-29-16, there are 105 participants in the program. With FY2015 grant we were able to add a part-time probation officer. With the combined hours, it still leaves the program at a 52:1 ratio, but with only 40 hours per week total between two officers. This is twice what is recommended by SCAO. With the increased caseload there is also increased clerical work that would fall on the probation offier, who is already at a deficit for case managment time. We are requesting additional funding to make the current SCAO funded Probation Officer full time, therefore bring the estimated ratio to 70:1 (estimated 105 participants/1.5 positions).

scheduled for October 1, then funds may not be used to fund the personnel until October 1, the date of
the scheduled lay-off), and maintain documentation showing the date(s) and reason(s) for the lay-off.
[Please note that as long as your agency can document the date that the lay-off would occur if the grant
funds were not available, it may transfer the personnel to the grant funding on or immediately after the
date of the lay-off without formally completing the administrative steps associated with a lay-off for

Dear Mr. Gingell:
I am providing information about Assurances #3 in State Court Administrative Office
(SCAO) grant application materials. The assurance states that applicants must provide assurance
of the intention of the jurisdiction to continue program operations if funding through the SCAO
is no longer available. This intention may include pursuing local funding, or other state or
federal grant funds. This assurance is also required to apply for and accept federal program
fi-mding for problem-solving courts programs. This should not be construed as a mandate for
futuredunding of a program through your funding unit.
If you have questions, please contact me by telephone at 517-373-6285, or by e-mail at
parksj@courts.mi.gov .
