JUVENILE AND DOMESTIC RELATIONS DISTRICT COURT
DEPARTMENT BUDGET SUMMARY
MISSION STATEMENT: To provide effective,
efficient and quality services, programs and interventions for juveniles,
adults and families while addressing public safety, victim impact, offender
accountability and competency development in conformance with court orders,
provisions of the Code of Virginia and standards set forth by the Department of
Juvenile Justice.
FY
2004 PRIORITIES: The
FY 2004 priorities of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court
(JDR) are:
-
To broaden and refine services to Arlington's
residents, with particular emphasis on the County's multi-cultural and diverse
population.
-
To continue to maximize benefits of the computerized
case management system, minimize the delay in resolution of cases and minimize
waiting times of witnesses, attorneys and victims.
-
To continue progress towards becoming a High
Performance Organization.
PRINCIPAL PROGRAMS: The principal programs
of JDR are:
-
Probation/Intake Units (Court Services)
-
Multi-Jurisdictional Programs
SIGNIFICANT BUDGET CHANGES: The FY 2004 proposed budget is
$4,184,108, a slight decrease from FY 2003. The budget reflects:
-
Because of the FY 2003 state budget cuts affecting the Juvenile and Domestic Relations
District Court, the FY 2004 budget has been reduced $37,000 for outside
residential and non-residential placements.
-
Non-personnel costs decreased due to the elimination of
$37,000 for outside residential and non-residential placements and a $14,508
reduction in Arlington's share of Sheltercare costs.
-
Revenues increased due mainly to an increase in Falls
Church fees ($21,382), Probation/Intake Unit's salary reimbursement by the
state ($33,941), Comprehensive Services Act for At-Risk-Youth grant ($68,500)
and the increase in Title IV-E reimbursements ($36,953) which is partially
offset by a decrease in the Functional Family Therapy grant ($9,131).
