Item Text

29. EXTERNSHIP EDUCATION AGREEMENT WITH MITCHELL HAMLINE SCHOOL OF LAW Approve the Externship Education Agreement with Mitchell Hamline School of Law to allow Public Defense Services (PDS) to provide criminal justice training and experience for students in the Mitchell Hamline School of Law externship program. The proposed externship program will provide the offices in PDS with additional resources at no cost to Maricopa County. The agreement is non-financial, and the term is to be from February 1, 2017 through January 31, 2018. Approval of this agenda item will serve as Board authorization and acceptance of individual externship agreements entered into with Mitchell Hamline School of Law through January 31, 2018. The offices in PDS, if approved for this action, will be authorized to have extern(s) assigned from Mitchell Hamline School of Law and to execute all necessary individual student agreements and documentation through January 31, 2018. At that time, continued Board approval of the program may be requested. No compensation will be provided by Maricopa County to the extern(s). In providing services to a PDS office, the extern(s) shall be deemed to be volunteer(s) of the office. There are no notable costs associated with the externship program; therefore there is no need for recovery of indirect costs. An experienced attorney employed by the PDS offices will serve as the supervisors and mentors for extern(s) provided by Mitchell Hamline School of Law. All services to be provided by the extern(s) shall be performed under the direct supervision, direction, and control of a supervising attorney. Suitable office space and administrative and other support services will be provided by the offices for the extern(s). The extern(s) shall be subject to all of the departmental policies, procedures, and practices except as provided with respect to compensation and benefits or as otherwise determined by the departments. Maricopa County shall cover the extern(s) and the services provided by the extern(s) under any applicable risk insurance policies on the same basis as a volunteer of the department.
