right now we're currently working on people on felony probation and as the adult probation department indicated, they provided an extensive list. we have already filed numerous petitions on behalf of numerous probationers but there is a large number of files that we're still determining the eligibility. some appear ineligible upon a quick rehave you but actually when you pull the file and you read the police report, they actually are eligible and they pled out to something that makes them ineligible so this is a work in progress. the biggest portion of the iceberg are the people who have already completed the sentence, convictions that are much older. >> do you have a timeline you are working with in trying to sort through these cases and get the answers? >> i believe we have 3 years to make sure we file all the petitions for these older cases. >> was that stipulated in the legislation? >> i believe -- miss deberry, the 3 year time frame? >> (inaudible) trying to contact the woman that's been doing the reviews. i think we've done approximately 300. the drug cases were obvious because

the next presentation will be from adult probation. okay, you can load it up into the computer. >> good afternoon, supervisor tang, breed, cohen. thank you for inviting the adult probation department to present on prop 47. my name is marty quiset, i'm the deputy chief of the adult probation department. chief still sends her regards, as we speak she's doing a presentation in sacramento on the state of the state realignment. the adult probation department handles over 4,000 cases every year. we believe providing outstanding services in an evidence-based supervision model in our clients will deeply impact not only behavior change but reduction in recidivism over the long haul in over to maintain public safety. when prop 47 passed our department was prepared and proactive. we worked closely with the district attorney and public defender's office to quickly determine who on our active case load might be provided relief through prop 47. we shared our list of those cases that appeared eligible with both departments and the defense bar. we rev

the adult probation department has been going towards a research-based probation supervision department, that provides a risk assessment, providing service referrals and motivational interviewing resulting in an increase in successful probation terminations and a decrease in unsuccessful terminations. in culture and recreation, we have the library. i selected this metric here with a lot of wonderful metrics, like all departments, but here showing the average daily wi-fi users. you can see a big increase particularly in the branch libraries. at the same time we have had the big bond program, the branch library improvement project that has recently completed all 24 branches that were slated for renovation or being rebuilt are open. libraries also making significant investments into technology initiatives because they do want to make available better technology everything from providing increased wi-fi, they are working with the department of technology to put in fiber connection that would reduce our reliance on contracting out for wi-fi services, they are doing a lot of projects to incre

they are no longer on probation they are no longer -- the conflict doesn't currently exist. but if the conflict currently exists, absolutely we have been in touch with the bar association, we have been working very closely with betsy wilkin, an attorney here in san francisco, and she will handle prop 47 relief. some of the judges on the bench used to be defense lawyers and obviously a judge cannot file a petition on behalf of someone who is eligible so they have asked someone from the private bar to step in. on the other hand we have people who are very savvy who are filing their own petitions in the court. we get a call from the court saying we don't have an order. the person is eligible and we have agreed but we don't have an order. so there's a lot of tasks that have to be performed to get these cases handled. >> people who are in custody, same scenario? >> yes, absolutely. >> thank you. >> thank you so much. >> thank you everyone who has participated in this hearing. there are just a couple initial thoughts that i want to leave with you. first, this measure was and i ant

of the adult probation officer. again that should read a current senior employee. the 13th seat shall be held by a current employee of the san francisco unified school district who has experience recognizing and working with at risk youth appointed by the board of education provided if they decline to appoint by member by the date listed the board of supervisors shall appoint an individual with experience and identified working with at risk youth and it's a again a current senior employee. all members of task force shall be residents of san francisco so those are the suggested amendments and the distinction within current employees and senior employees this is serious business we're dealing with and i want to have decision makers at the table influencing the policy as we move forward. >> can i ask for clarification mainly because i have been talking about seniors a lot? would there be any misinterpretation when you say a senior staff member? i am not trying to be funny. i want to make sure that we have the right wor

probation department. >> well, what's so great about the probation department in marin county is thatidentified jacari as an example of someone that they felt would make a big difference. if he changed his life, then others say they can move in that direction. so they paid the union dues, which is $800, maybe a little more than that, and they also provided the support along with the phoenix project so he could attend northern california labor training program in san ramon. it was a three-week program. he and another participant stayed in san ramon for three weeks. again, probation department provided the union fees and then we provided all the extra support services, the uniforms as needed, the boots. >> the hard hat. >> the hard hat. not only that, when they stayed at the campus, they needed to have food because the local grocery stores. phoenix project supported that. >> that's fantastic. before we run out of time, i want to talk about the meeting you had with michelle obama's brother. we have some images of your kids meeting him. you went to image for success to get everybody all d

>> adult probation i think will be able to speak to that portion of it. all the 375 cases that were reduced to misdemeanors were not currently on probation but the 900 cases that we're going through now, adult probation is in that conversation with us, they are reviewing those individuals' files to see what kind of report they need and i'm sure they will speak to that in their presentation about how they are planning to reduce those cases. >> is there some kind of body coordinating this or are you facilitating this discussion? i'm just trying to understand the structure that's being reated and put in place to go through these files. >> right. so we pulled everybody identified, the public defender identified the cases they had, reidentified the cases we thought were eligible. everybody has pulled their files. >> are you all in the same room, are you doing this by email, how is it physically working? >> we're not all in the same room, no, that's not exactly possible. each department is pulling their files then we have a conversation about each individual. i

when i was a probation officer we used to use the risk assessment. that's an objectsive tool to not hold young people into the system. i know that new york tries to use it but as an intake officer you're a young person askis -- a young person is screened then a probation. people are screened immediately so you can eliminate them from being put into a detention center. my first position was an intake officer and i did gender responsive programming. holding an all-female gang caseload. when i would get calls from officers from police officers that my young girl was going to be transported into the probation or into the juvenile hall, i would risk them in my head and inform the police officer that was not necessary and inform them there was a community program that would be accepting them at this time. it's things like that. we could do so much better if we really wanted to. i think that's what we're here for. >> thank you very much. sue followed by cedric alexander. >> i'll start with miss perez. i appreciated your comments about the pal program and th
