<br />Programs and Services to Achieve Goals <br /> <br />A Note on Public Safety System Outcomes <br /> <br />In recognition of the interconnections of the public safety system, staff propose an overall system <br />reducing the rate of re-offending <br />outcome of . This addresses the desired effect in the <br />community, as well as measuring the impact on people who are actually served by the programs: <br />juveniles and adults who have already committed a crime. Because of differences in the juvenile <br />and adult corrections systems, the methodology and the target for reduction will be different. <br /> <br />? <br /> Impact of juvenile system proposals: <br /> 65 percent reduction in re-offenses as <br />measured by the rate of change in average referrals three years prior and three years <br />post involvement. <br />? <br /> Impact of adult system proposals: <br /> XX percent reduction in re-offenses as measured <br />by the rate of change in average convictions three years prior and three years post <br />involvement. Because of differences in data definitions and collection, the specific <br />target for reduction is still being developed. Work on methodology and baseline data <br />is currently underway, and a target will be determined in the Fall of 2005. <br /> <br />In addition to the overall system measures, the proposed services have identified intermediate <br />system <br />outcomes or results as described below. Overall, the proposed package contains the <br />balance <br /> that has been identified by research as critical for reducing re-offending. Outcomes are <br />listed in anticipation of services being part of the overall system, rather than stand-alone menu <br /> <br />items. <br /> <br />? Target these Groups for Special Action: Illegal Drug Producers, Dealers, <br />and Users and Target Property Criminals. <br /> Devote substantial resources toward the <br />goal of significantly reducing illegal drug production, dealing, and use—especially of <br />methamphetamine. Direct efforts at reducing repeat adult and juvenile offenders. Focus <br />resources on drug users who commit property crimes while high on drugs and/or to support their <br />drug addiction. <br /> <br />Interagency Drug Team. <br /> Staff and coordinate a new interagency (county/city/P&P/ State <br />Police) drug team to target major drug manufacturing and distribution. The team would consist <br />of nine officers and two support staff. The District Attorney’s Office will provide legal advice <br />and prosecution. B <br />udgeted for 11.0 FTE for INET for all three agencies: Lane County, Eugene, and <br />Springfield. (1.0 Sergeant, 8.0 Deputy Sheriff, 1.0 Communications Officer, 1.0 Administrative <br />Assistant). <br />1 <br />Cost: $1,800,000 <br />Results: Reduce or curtail illegal drug manufacturing and distribution thus reducing the <br />availability of drugs, reducing drug use, and reducing property and identity crimes. Part of a <br />balanced public safety system. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br /> All costs reflect next fiscal year and will increase each subsequent fiscal year. <br />Programs and Services to Achieve Identified Goals – August 23, 2005 Page 1 <br /> <br />
