Juvenile Justice Committee

 2011 - 2012 Initiatives:

 - Improve cross-systems information sharing, specifically this would target the juvenile court's largest school district - MPS and would look to improve the sharing of information with MPD regarding youth identified as high risk while maintaining matters of confidentiality
- Explore and pilot Balanced Restorative Justice practices within the juvenile justice system.
 - Explore and pilot the concept of referring parental truancy prosecutions to the Juvenile Court if the youth is identified to be involved in either a CHIPS, Delinquency or JIPS matter. This would support the effectiveness and efficiency of the One Family, One Judge, One Court Model.

By Law Charter Topics:

 - Identify the issues and initiatives relating to juvenile justice.
 - Examine current successful processes that might be relevant for the adult system and vice versa.

Programs & Interventions Committee

2011 - 2012 Initiatives:

 - EBDM Initiative-the work involved in this initiative is very data driven and requires collaborative efforts to share information among various agencies. Will need support from the Data/Information Committee. The EBDM initiative also will require efforts to engage the public in dialogue about why an EB approach is better and more cost-effective for our system. In addition, we may want to survey public opinion on crime, punishment and the EBDM initiative. This will require assistance of the Public Outreach and Education committees.
 - Alternative Programming for Sentenced Inmates-Reviewing and recommending programming at CCF-S and CCF-C. Insuring that programming is evidence-based, etc. this should be a collaborative effort between the Jail & Huber and this committee.
 - Proposal for Community Justice Reinvestment Act-will require support and assistance from Public Outreach and Education. Perhaps the EC would consider developing a legislative committee to assist with this effort.

By Law Charter Topics:

 - Explore ways of deterring initial entrance into the criminal justice system.
 - Identify ways to reduce criminal recidivism and victimization by researching efficient and cost-effective alternative programs and processes for defendants and offenders in Milwaukee County

Public Health Committee

2011 - 2012 Initiatives:

 - To coordinate the activities currently underway among a variety of criminal justice system agencies, universities county funded programs like BHD, public and private hospitals. We would hope to identify areas where collaboration can be effective. This is in part a mapping exercise.
 - We have an important role to be a clearinghouse for representatives of the entities listed above and the community to track current developments, share information and provide a vehicle for meaningful discussion across institutional and professional boundaries.
 - We would like to find partners to work with the Community Justice Council to deepen our understanding through research informed efforts of problems that seem of significant concern for our criminal justice system. Recently our group has sought guidance to better understand the role trauma plays in the lives of defendants in criminal cases. These are complex tasks but critical to push forward with critical changes. Much of these efforts will be significantly affected by the work involved with the recent NIC grant.

By Law Charter Topics:

 - Addresses issues around drug and alcohol addiction, mental health, firearm violence, and emergency medicine.

Re-Entry Committee (Added by full Council on September 22, 2010)

2011 - 2012 Initiatives:

 - Programming - the need to focus on identifying the current providers to the reentry community, what are their current resources and how they match up geographically and resource wise with most of the reentering/returning offenders?  This area will emphasize the linkages and the need for mapping listing the resources and the offenders.
 - Resources - where and what are the gaps where we need additional resources and what additional federal/state resources are available for Milwaukee County in the area of reentry.
 - System Integration/Evaluation - Continued efforts to integrate the data systems and screening tools used to facilitate reentry efforts and provide comprehensive clearinghouse to coordinate and evaluate these efforts.
