Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve Title IV-E Service Agreement between the Arizona Supreme Court, Administrative Office of the Courts and Cochise County Juvenile Court Services, Probation Division effective June 24, 2014 to June 30, 2015.
Background:
The Arizona Supreme Court-AOC receives and manages federal Title IV-E funding through an Inter-agency Service Agreement (ISA) with the Arizona Dept. of Economic Security (DES) in order to make claims through DES to the federal government per CFDA# 93.658. Juvenile Court Services staff have determined that some juveniles within the county may be eligible for Title IV-E and therefore the department would be reimbursed through the AOC for out-of-home placement services provided to the eligible juveniles. In addition, the department would be reimbursed for a percentage of the personnel expense of current staff to review case management files and manage the case flow process of juveniles who are eligible within the established federal Title IV-E guidelines.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Submit the required Title IV-E Operational Plan to the Arizona Supreme Court-AOC as required in the service agreement.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
The Title IV-E fund reimbursement will not be available to the department to fund alternative programming for juveniles in the community.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
Please forward grant approval form with the assigned fund number from the Finance Department to: Tracey Rocco 520-432-7523.

Fiscal Impact & Funding Sources (if known):
The Arizona Supreme Court-AOC receives and manages Federal Title IV-E funding through an Inter-Agency Service Agreement (ISA) with Arizona Dept. of Economic Security (DES) in order to make claims through DES to the federal government per CFDA# 93.658. Juvenile Court Services staff have determined that some juveniles within the county may be eligible for Title IV-E and therefore the department would be reimbursed through the AOC for out-of-home placement services provided to the eligible juveniles. In addition, the department would be reimbursed for a percentage of the personnel expense of current staff to review case management files and manage the case flow process of juveniles who are eligible within the established Federal Title IV-E guidelines. The amount of reimbursement is variable and difficult to determine at the current time because it is contingent on the number of eligible juveniles. The department does not anticipate needing additional staff to work with this new funding source.
