The Alameda County Justice Restoration Project (ACJRP) is led by the Alameda County District Attorney's Office and various county partners to improve outcomes for young adults who previously committed low-level felony crimes. ACJRP is a new model for community re-entry after jail release that addresses self-sufficiency goals and community safety by breaking the cycle of incarceration with service navigation support and intensive case management for adults aged 18-34. La Familia Counseling Services, a community-based organization, will support young adults returning to their neighborhoods in Alameda County through its Individualized Coaching Model. Clients will be paired for 18 months with coaches with similar life experiences who will provide dedicated engagement and mentorship. Coaches will coordinate with probation officers and trained professionals to streamline access to an array of services that are challenging for clients to navigate without support.
As the project manager, Third Sector is providing technical assistance throughout the Build phase, fundraise, fiscal management, and program pilot in partnership with WestEd (evaluator), Building Opportunities for Self Sufficiency (fiscal manager), and the Probation Department, the County Administrator’s Office, and the Sheriff’s Office, among other County partners. This project was developed with the support of the Corporation for National and Community Service under the Social Innovation Fund and the CA PFS Initiative, funded by the James Irvine Foundation and administered by the Nonprofit Finance Fund. |
