Community Corrections Partnership
Legislative Overview
Realignment legislation built upon previous statewide initiatives designed to expand the use of evidence-based practices in sentencing and probation to reduce the state prison population. The California Community Corrections Incentives Act of 2009 (SB 678) established Community Corrections Partnerships (CCP) in each county, which consists of several government and community stakeholders.
Assembly Bill 109 (AB109) expanded the role of the CCP, through the establishment of an Executive Committee. The CCP Executive Committee (CCPEC), is chaired by the Chief Probation Officer, with additional members being the Sheriff, District Attorney, Public Defender, Health and Human Services Agency Director, and Superior Court representative. The CCP provides planning, oversight, implementation, and assessment of realignment in Sierra County. Realignment objectives and goals will be accomplished through the expanded use of evidence-based practices and programming that will promote positive behavioral change and outcomes to reduce recidivism.
