Western Regional Day Report Center briefs commission on pre-trial program and community-service referrals
Summary
Western Regional Day Report Center representatives told the Cabell County Commission their Pre-Trial program serves about 200 people per county and up to 400 across bond supervision and drug court, and described WRDRC.com as a portal for community-service requests.
Christopher Dean and Justin Lockwood of the Western Regional Day Report Center updated the Cabell County Commission on March 28, 2019 about the center’s pre-trial services and community-service referral tools.
Dean and Lockwood said the day report center provides a Pre-Trial program the county uses as a cost-saving alternative to incarceration. They reported the program currently serves "approximately 200 people per county and up to 400 total between bond supervision and drug court" and highlighted WRDRC.com as the access point for community-service requests, including trash pickup referrals. The presenters noted the program has received state and federal recognition and awards.
The presentation was informational; no vote was required. Commissioners took the update as part of regular business and recorded the program’s website and recognition in the meeting minutes.
