Council Member Sandy Nurse inquires whether the impact of budget cuts has been communicated to the Mayor's Office of Criminal Justice (MOCJ). The discussion reveals that MOCJ sets intake goals for ATI providers, implying they should be aware of the potential impacts of the cuts.

  • MOCJ sets intake goals for ATI providers as part of the contracting process
  • Council Member Nurse expresses frustration that MOCJ claimed not to know the impact of the cuts
  • The exchange highlights a discrepancy between MOCJ's stated knowledge and what providers have communicated to them
