Summary
The Board approved corrections and juvenile services contracts, including youth job training through Hopeworks 'N Camden ($200,000) and services for detention alternatives and commissary services, with some funding contingent on 2026 budgets.
Resolutions adopted during the meeting authorized contracts to support juvenile detention alternatives and positive-youth-development services, including a multi-vendor package totaling about $848,298 and a Hopeworks 'N Camden agreement for $200,000 to support youth job training and workforce investment. The Board also authorized continuation of commissary services and purchases of a mail scanning system and inmate electronic monitoring services for the correctional facility.
