pilot program, as specified.
*********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
The following information is revised to reflect amendments
adopted by the committee on May 27, 2016
Fiscal
Impact:
BSCC : One-time costs of approximately $65,000 (General Fund)
to support activities related to the review and approval of
applications for pilot participation.
Local agencies : Major costs potentially in excess of $7
million (Local Funds/General Fund/General Fund*) annually for
three years (total costs of $21 million) to provide the
necessary treatment, services, and collaborative case

management activities for three counties. The pilot program is
limited to three jurisdictions.
CSEC program : Potential increase in Commercially Sexually
Exploited Children (CSEC) program costs (General Fund**) for
services, treatment, and case management activities for
juvenile LEAD program participants that otherwise may have
been charged with the specified prostitution offense. Costs
would be dependent on the specific counties approved for the
pilot, the number of LEAD participants in each county, and the
existing infrastructure and service capacity available to
serve LEAD participants in these counties.
Medi-Cal services : Potentially significant increase in
Medi-Cal program costs (Federal Fund/General Fund) for greater
provision of alcohol/substance abuse treatment and mental
health services to LEAD participants.
Criminal justice system : Potentially major future cost
savings in the millions of dollars (General Fund/Local Funds)
to numerous state and local agencies, including but not
limited to the courts, state prisons, local correctional
facilities, law enforcement agencies, and human services
agencies to the extent LEAD participation results in reduced
recidivism of LEAD participants.
Proposition 47* : Staff notes the funds to be disbursed
annually to the BSCC under the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools
Act (65 percent of Proposition 47 calculated savings) for
mental health services, substance abuse treatment, and
diversion programs for people in the criminal justice system,
with emphasis on programs that reduce recidivism of people
convicted of less serious crimes may potentially be used for
the purposes specified in this measure.
*Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Fund (annual transfer from the
General Fund)
**Proposition 30 General Fund
Author
Amendments: Specify LEAD program details for the pilot program
in up to three jurisdictions.
Committee
Amendments: Add a sunset date of January 1, 2020, for the pilot
