Purpose

Sauk County Criminal Justice, Diversion, and Support (JDS) programs use the  Fivepoint Solutions database to compile all electronic files on all participants in the various programs of the department.

With the creation of the Re-Entry Coordinator position, the need for additional data collection section and license was identified to support this important work. The Re-Entry Coordinator position assists incarcerated individuals with a successful transition back to the community after release. Data shows this is an effective way to reduce recidivism, as well as an effective strategy to reduce mental health and substance use disorder both in the community and in the incarcerated population. This position conducts risk assessments and develops individualized case plans for individuals transitioning back to our community to identify housing, job training, job placement, education, and other social determinant needs. This model supports returning citizens in becoming productive, tax-paying, citizens, with access to substance use and mental health treatment services. This additional section to the database is essential for the success of these individuals by tracking the needed data points.

The cost to add this section to the software is $12,600 and is covered in the Community Development Block Grant that is supporting this program and is a budgeted expense.
