In August, CSG Justice Center staff finalized and published the New Mexico final report.

In July, CSG Justice Center staff continued to work on the New Mexico final report, which summarizes proposed and enacted policies.

CSG Justice Center presented on a document outlining roles and responsibilities and solicited feedback from the Department of Public Safety and Corrections and START Corporation on the call.  There are noticeable partnership challenges that are demonstrated on the call, which make it difficult to redirect the conversation and ease tension.  We move instead to have separate check ins, so that we can get a more clear understanding of the areas of challenges as viewed by each partner, ease tension, and develop consensus for a more unified approach.

CSG Justice Center staff held an in-person meeting with Robert Vehock to discuss the project, and challenges in the partnership with START from the DPSC perspective.  DPSC has begun implementing these questions during other enrollment processes earlier in reentry planning, which has slowed down the process.  Further, DPSC staff feel like they have limited bandwidth to implement the project, and there is specific tension among the reentry provider and case management staff at START.  I've shared that I'm working separately with START and DPSC and will be developing recommendations

CSG Justice Center staff joined the Executive Committee meeting where they discussed the bidders conference, and qualifications for supportive housing providers in the program.  We discussed specific qualifications and considerations for the review process, including working with a reentry population and history of operating Housing First programs.
