that is why we are meeting with barbara garcia and wendy, who are supportive of this concept. can we find the funding for it? supervisor campos: does the penal code make that an option? or is it a requirement? if it is a requirement, in respect of whether or not you think it is a good idea or it is feasible or not, if it is a requirement, it is a requirement. >> it is a requirement. there is no -- if you don't do it, nothing will happen to you. most of the counties are not doing it. we believe that we should look at it. we are looking at best practices and what makes sense. how can we offer things to these people who go through the system so they will not reoffend? we need tools to monitor people on probation. supervisor campos: we are legally required. >> we are. that is part of the reason why we brought it to the family violence council. when the judge took over as the domestic violence a judge, he would send me a code almost weekly saying, what are we doing about this? we have been working. we were working with the center for special problems. it has had some budget cuts. i
