Landlords and property owners are often missing from collaborative spaces and discussion. Currently working to do what they can to supplement rent at local hotels. This is a short-term fix, however.

Also a lack of public transportation. They have limited transportation that can be scheduled a day in advance (8:30-3:30 M-F).

Bus passes are purchased and distributed generously.

Someone is not getting into the program unless they have been arrested multiple times or we have a criminal history to be able to see their background.

State's Attorney probably talks to representative on the Drug Court team, sometimes they outreach to the office.

Someone will go to Jenny or Amy to discuss eligibility before making a referral. So, in a sense, they are pre-screening candidates prior to filling out the referral form. Once a referral is made, it goes to the whole panel. There is an opportunity here to create consistency in shaping the pre-screening and screening discussions.
