ysbs lead local interagency services teams
CYSA has been awarded a grant from the State of Connecticut Judicial Branch for Youth Service Bureaus to act as lead agencies for the new Local Interagency Services Team (LIST) initiative. This initiative is a partnership between Court Support Services Division of the Judicial Branch and the Department of Children and Families, Bureau of Juvenile Services on behalf of the Joint Juvenile Justice Strategic Plan Executive Implementation Team.
CYSA to Work with Pro Bono Partnership
CYSA will work with the Pro Bono Partnership to obtain legal services to review the Association by-laws. The Pro Bono Partnership is a non-profit organization that provides free "expert business legal advice" to other non-profits for "services they cannot otherwise afford, enhancing their capacity to improve local communities and provide essential programs for the poor and disadvantaged." The Partnership will identify an attorney who would be willing to work with a Governance Committee consisting of CYSA Board members. The attorney, together with the Governance Committee, will examine the by-laws for clarity and compliance with state statutes and to make recommendations to the Board for any revisions.
For more information on the Pro Bono Partnership, go to their website at www.probonopartnership.org
results based accountability (RBA) Initiative
CYSA is partnering with the State Department of Education and The Charter Oak Group, LLC to develop a Results Based Accountability (RBA) Framework for Youth Service Bureaus statewide.
