Fifty-eight California cities and counties have submitted applications for programs to be funded through Proposition 47. Passed in November 2014, Prop 47 reclassified certain nonviolent, non-serious offenses from felonies to misdemeanors and retroactively allowed for resentencing and release from prison or jail. As a result, California’s prison and jail populations declined, and the state allocated the resulting state savings to local substance use, mental health, and recidivism reduction programs. An estimated $103 million is available for these programs, but the amount being requested by all 58 public agencies totals about $225 million.
Public agencies — defined as county, city, or tribal government departments — must be the lead applicants for this funding, but they are required to share at least 50 percent of awarded funding with a nonprofit partner. This funding is intended to strengthen programs that address the underlying factors of crime, end pipelines to incarceration, and ensure that individuals are supported to reduce the commitment of new offenses. Community-based services are essential in establishing this support and improving public safety.
For more information on the Prop 47 funding process, visit the California Board of State and Community Corrections’ (BSCC) Prop 47 resource page. Below, see a list of public applicants organized by county.
