Program we cant take any more clients and put out of our county jail system. Supervisor i cant speak to that ill redirect it. As it relates specific to the matter of pretrial drefrgs or diversion their funding stream one of the things ill point out will young from the pretrial diversion will be here to speak in detail about that topic but rest assured im sure theyre operating at full capacity and their definitely operating at full capacity and if we decrease the funds they could take on more inmates if we examine what funding for example the pretrial diversions for the pretrial inmates what the reduction would be in if we examined that.

In closing, i want to thank the board, i want to thank you in particular supervisor march as our members uniformly said you are the loudest and steady person we have in elected office. I want to thank you for all the work you have done and your colleagues and done an ed wong and special thanks to Carla Johnson for her leadership on this and i want to thank all of my colleagues on the Advisory Committee.

And like you, i also want to thank jonathan lions for the legwork that he put into this effort to bring this issue to all of our attention. It was also exactly 1 year ago that you held this hearing. In your june 2014 hearing was a catalyst to reignite the conversation with the department of Human Resources.
