Item Title
APPLY AND ACCEPT THE 2013 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE GRANT
C Number: C-37-14-036-G-00
Action Requested:
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.
Board Required Information:
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.
Additional Information:
According to a recent study, metropolitan Phoenix has the highest rate of disconnected youth in the
country. Youth that are not involved in school or work are much more likely to become involved in the
juvenile and adult justice systems. The Maricopa County Education Service Agency (MCESA) has been
awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency
Prevention to reverse this trend by reconnecting youth to their families and their communities, and by

providing training and support to build the case management and evidence-based practice capacity of
youth-serving agencies throughout Maricopa County.
MCESA, partnering with the Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections (ADJC), the Maricopa County
Juvenile Probation Department, and the Maricopa County Human Services Department have developed
a shared mission and vision for this initiative titled “Building Futures: A Second Act”.
Building Futures: A Second Act will specifically serve a critical subpopulation of juvenile justice involved
youth and families from five geographical areas in Maricopa County.
Expenditure Impact By FY:
FY 2014 – Revenue and Expenditure $1,500,000, $375,000 of which is in-kind.
