16. APPLY AND ACCEPT THE 2013 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE GRANT Accept $750,000 on behalf of The Maricopa County Education Service Agency (MCESA) from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention for Second Chance Act Prisoner Reentry Initiative (CFDA 16.812). This grant is a collaboration of the Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections (ADJC), the Maricopa County Juvenile Probation Department, and the Maricopa County Human Services Department. The Grant Period is October 1, 2013 – September 30, 2014. The Federal award amount is $750,000 with an in-kind match of $375,000 and a cash match of $375,000. The cash and in-kind match are already budgeted and appropriated. MCESA’s indirect rate for FY 2013 is 8.3 percent. Recoverable indirect costs on this award are $57,479. No Budget adjustment is necessary at this time. A grant fund reconciliation at year-end will account for this expenditure authority. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore, expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget law. This action does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. The Second Chance Act Programs are designed to help communities develop and implement comprehensive and collaborative strategies that address the challenges posed by offender reentry and recidivism reduction. The Second Chance Act is a commonsense response to the increasing number of people who are released from prison and jail and returning to communities. The Second Chance Act will help ensure the transition people make from prison or jail to the community is safe and successful. This grant provides additional funding and provides additional supports for the Maricopa County Juvenile Transition program to ensure results and its success. (C-37-14-036-G-00)
