Justice-Involved GPRA Resource & Reminders

Justice-Involved GPRA Resources

CSBs providing SOR-funded services to clients in a specialized program in the justice setting program will begin conducting GPRAs with this population on November 2nd. Thank you to those that joined us for the Justice-Involved GPRA Training last Tuesday, October 20th. As a follow-up to this training, we have posted a few helpful resources related to administering the GPRA with justice-involved clients:

UPDATE ON INCENTIVES FOR THIS POPULATION!

Clients in a justice setting cannot receive a gift card for completing the GPRA (due to this population's increased vulnerability). However, if a client conducts an intake GPRA while in a specialized justice setting program but is no longer in the specialized justice setting program at the time of their follow-up GPRA, they can receive a gift card. This should not be discussed at the Intake GPRA, so as to limit any undue coercion.

next steps

As a reminder, the GPRA survey changes for justice-involved clients will be published to the online survey on November 2nd, after which CSBs can begin administering the GPRA to justice-involved clients. Please reach out to SORSupport@omni.org with any questions!
