Jail & Detention Fund - Josephine County
JOSEPHINE COUNTY
                              Jail & Detention Fund Description

This Fund was created for the 2017-18 budget after the Josephine County voters approved the 5-year
local option levy to fund the Adult Jail and Juvenile Detention Programs in May 2017.

It is comprised of two programs: Sheriff –Adult Jail Program and Juvenile Justice–Detention
Program. The Sheriff is an elected official. The manager of the Juvenile Justice Department
reports to a liaison County Commissioner. The departments within this fund provide support for
the criminal justice system utilized by city, county and state law enforcement. Countywide
services include the jail and juvenile facility.

The budget is in balance, which means that the budgeted requirements (expenditures and ending
fund balance) are equal to the resources (beginning fund balance and revenues) that are estimated
to be available during the budget year. The primary source of revenue to operate the
departments in this Fund is property tax from the local option levy and transfer in from Forestry
Reserve Fund. Additionally, programs operated by the two programs generate revenues for
specific program purposes.

In the pages that follow, a summary of the Fund (Resources and Requirements) is presented first,
followed by sections for each of the departments. Each department is represented by a graph of
expenditures for the proposed budget, the current year adopted budget, and the previous three
years actual expenditures. The associated chart provides the same information in numerical
values. Following the graph and chart is a narrative of the purpose of the program.

SHERIFF
                              Adult Jail– Purpose of Program
ORS 206.010 ‐ Arrest and commit to prison all persons who break the peace, or attempt to break it, and
all persons guilty of public offenses.
ORS 169.320 ‐ The County must pay for the care of county prisoners. The Sheriff has custody and
control of prisoners in the facility.

Budget Goal #1 ‐ Improve community outreach and communication to the public by increasing
efficiencies within County Departments and providing enhanced service to citizens.
The Sheriff’s Office uses technology to efficiently improve community outreach, communicate with the
public, and provide enhanced services. With social media, the county website and FlashAlert Newswire,
the Sheriff’s Office is able to post press releases, inform the public about new programs and services,
and regularly provide office statistics. Many citizens also use the Sheriff’s Office email as a convenient
way to contact the office and get a timely response to their questions. This use of technology makes it
possible for every citizen to communicate with the office and receive important information at little to
no cost to the County.

Budget Goal #2 ‐ Develop a sustainable plan for all mandated and essential County government
programs.
With federal funding dwindling, it is important to have other funding streams in order to keep mandated
services. While the Sheriff’s Office continues to seek new revenue sources, the Jail receives contracts
and grants for jail beds that provide funding for about 15% of the Jail budget. This funding includes
reimbursement for a drug treatment pod, Parole & Probation sanctions, felony DUII beds, and US
Marshal adults in custody. The remaining budget for the 185 bed Jail is funded by a 5 year corrections
levy passed in May 2017. Though the levy is not permanent, it provides stable funding for five years
while permanent solutions continue to be explored.

Budget Goal #3 ‐ Provide access to County services to the citizens of Josephine County in a
transparent, open and professional manner.
There are several ways the Sheriff’s Office provides access to services to the citizens in an open and
professional manner. The starting point for anyone trying to reach the Josephine County Adult Jail is a
phone tree designed to answer frequently asked questions to provide more immediate service. For
example the phone tree may refer you to our website where there is a tool to search for current adults
in custody lodged in the Jail. You can also visit a website to put money on their accounts and to schedule
video visits that can be done through a home computer. While many services are provided via the
phone tree or a home computer, there is also always the option of speaking to a live staff member or
face to face in the jail lobby. The Sheriff’s Office continues to seek new technology to continue to
improve access to services.

       Using Power DMS, an exchange of training information in a pool of 36 different agencies

                                            Five‐Year Vision:

A corrections levy was passed in May 2017 to fund a 185 bed jail. Over the next five years the goal is to
increase the cap to 250 beds to better accommodate the needs of the community. The vision for this
expanded facility would include an aggregation/segregation wing in order to better isolate certain adults
in custody when necessary. The facility could potentially include an additional drug treatment pod for
adults in custody and a separate area for mental health beds.

JUVENILE JUSTICE
                           Detention ‐ Purpose of Program
Juvenile Justice Detention Services are mandated in ORS 419A.010‐020. Felony youth referrals are
received from law enforcement, evaluated by the District Attorney's Office for legal sufficiency and the
course of disposition is prescribed by Juvenile Justice. Misdemeanor referrals are evaluated by Juvenile
Justice. The program promotes community protection through accountability for youth, opportunity for
reformation and justice for victims. Detention is often required pre/post hearing and serves to provide
public safety.

As a result of a successful public safety levy, the Josephine County Juvenile Detention Center re‐opened
in January 2018. This 14 bed facility houses pre‐adjudicated youth who are referred to the Department
for Felony crimes and high‐risk Misdemeanors. Our detention center will also house youth who are
serving sanctions based on Probation Violations or Violations of Conditional Release. Other uses of
detention include court ordered detention as a consequence for law violations and the short‐term
housing of criminal youth that are not eligible to be booked into detention. Such youth are processed
upon being taken into custody and are released to a responsible party within four hours of detainment
in the facility. These short‐term stays will also include law violations and Status Offenses, offering much
needed relief to law enforcement officers who routinely deal with runaway, curfew and alcohol or
marijuana possession issues. Youth housed in our detention center are provided with year‐round
education services (as outlined by ORS and the Oregon Department of Education), recreational
opportunities, mental health services, nursing and medical screenings, alcohol and drug counseling,
cognitive‐behavioral group skill building and individual skill building.

Budget Goal #1 ‐ Improve community outreach and communication to the public by improving
efficiencies within County Departments and provide enhanced services to citizens.
This goal is accomplished by having the capacity to hold all youth in secured detention that pose a
significant risk to community safety. In fiscal year 2018/2019 ALL Josephine County youth who posed a
community safety risk were held in detention pending release as authorized by the Family Court or
Juvenile Justice.

Budget Goal #2 ‐ Develop a sustainable plan for all mandated and essential County government
programs.
Josephine County’s 30‐day detention program was approved by the state and began operations in late
2019. These enhanced detention services are allowed by law if a program meets state requirements
through an extensive application and site visit process. This program allows a Judge to order a youth
into a treatment specific detention program for up to 30 days. This program is designed to keep you
from penetrating deeper into the system by providing cognitive behavioral programing and individual
counseling including mental health and alcohol and drug services. Through contracts with other
counties, we are able to generate revenue for the program by selling unused bed capacity for this
program. At a rate of $150.00 per day, our detention fund will receive $4,500 for each out‐of‐county
youth served in our program.

Budget Goal #3 ‐ Provide access to County services to the citizens of Josephine County government
programs.
Our department strives to provide services in a professional manner at all times. Juveniles are referred
to us via Grants Pass Police, Josephine County Sheriff, Oregon State Police and Federal agencies.
Secured detention services are the first step in the continuum that is designed to serve delinquent youth
and their families. By continuing go offer this service, Josephine County remains accountable to crime
victims, law enforcement, community partners and the citizens.
