FY2023: CCJ is also tracking an additional performance measure of the percentage of clients whose protective factors increased as the actual number of clients discharged from probation varies from year to year.  (7/19/23, SS)

07/2022: Although the number of clients whose protective factors increased is lower than the previous fiscal year, in examining the number of clients whose protective factors increased versus the number of clients surveyed in FY21-22, 218 out of 274 clients had an increase in protective factors.  SS

As of FY21-22, due to the hiring of a new Executive Director in Oct. 2021, clients whose protective factors increased is understood to mean clients who had increased protective factors at time of discharge.  Protective factors may include but are not limited to natural supports, increased knowledge of community resources, increased knowledge of coping skills, and/or increased financial stability.  (SS, 4/19/22)

FY20-21: Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and quarantine, there were fewer arrests during this period which created fewer clients sentenced to probation. There was also a delay in all court hearings during the quarantine so this created a large time lag for cases to be adjudicated and put on probation during this period.

Numbers may be low for 2019 data...only 6 months of surveys collected for year, one full time PO did not complete their surveys before going on extended leave.

Added Client ID numbers to all surveys...easier to check what surveys have and have not been collected moving into FY 20-21. Will also be able to report a full year of data moving forward.
