What is the predicted funding cycle from the State for Community Corrections beds for the next 10 yrs?
This is difficult to assign a quantitative number to as there are many factors that contribute to funding for community corrections. It is, however, the belief of Denver Community Corrections that funding for residential community corrections will continue to increase over the next decade for a number of reasons including: a. Historical use of residential community corrections- The state and Denver have seen community corrections funding increase steadily over the past decade. Even during difficult budget times in state fiscal year 04-05, 144 transition beds were added statewide (Denver received 50). b. Prison Population Projections- The need for residential community corrections beds is linked to the state prison population which has increased steadily and will continue to do so as projected by the state. c. Support from the state to expand residential community corrections- As mentioned earlier, even in difficult budget cycles, the state recognizes the importance of community correct
