Public Comment: none

Communications:  CJCC to engage in strategic planning and provide training on meeting structure. Ramnarace to report back to this committee on applications of lessons learned.  We discussed Mohr’s emailed suggestions for criminal justice peer support.

Begin work on subcommittee goal #1: Develop practice guidelines for peer support working in various criminal justice and pre-booking diversion settings, including prison release, jail release, adult treatment court, probation and parole, and youth justice.

  1. Develop practice guidelines for peer support in various criminal justice and pre-booking diversion settings, including prison release, jail release, adult treatment court, probation and parole, and youth justice (including liaison officer referrals).

    Guidelines to include:

    1. Recommended qualifications and criteria for being a peer support provider who works with criminal-justice related individuals. Certified Peer Specialist credential or similar. Peer Specialist needs to have lived experience with criminal justice. Volunteer, county/agency employee, or contracted through county/agency. On the job training: Dual Track Training through the Behavioral Health Training Partnership of UW Green Bay; Mental Health First Aid training; QPR training; introduction to the criminal justice system.

    2. Client referral form and protocol for referrals.

    3. Client intake survey/assessment.

    4. A protocol for resolving interagency conflicts.

  2. Develop a training manual for peer support providers who are working with criminal-justice involved individuals.

    To include a checklist of needs and related resources for criminal justice involved individuals, to be used by peer support providers for assessment and referral.  For example: Medicaid, minutes on cell phone, medications, housing, primary care provider, etc.

    Resources for developing the manual: There is a forensic peer support manual from Peer Star in Pennsylvania we could use as a basis for developing ours.  Ryan emailed us this document.  SAMHSA has a webinar: Cathy emailed us this info.


We discussed how these two goals are interrelated and possibly one and the same. Process mapping would be part of our goal(s). We also discussed possible funding streams for advancing assessment and peer support in criminal justice settings as part of the Sauk County Stepping Up initiative.  Discussed who should be at the table. Jesse to step down as committee member. Representation from the Sheriff’s Department and the County Board was discussed.

 

Next meeting date and agenda items:

April 30, 2019, at 3:00 in 213. Plan how to secure funding and how to get buy in from necessary stakeholders.

Adjournment

Motion to adjourn by Jesse, second by Warwick. Motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 4:42 p.m.

 

Respectfully Submitted:
