Summary of Request:
The State of California, Department of State Hospitals (DSH) funds county correctional facilities to provide Jail-Based Competency Treatment (JBCT) Programs. The JBCT Program is designed to reduce the time it takes, or may even eliminate the need for the DSH to perform the process of evaluating mentally ill inmates who are ordered to undergo competency treatment by the courts. Having this program at the Mendocino County Jail ensures that the process is streamlined, fiscally prudent for the State and the County, and the court process is timelier and more efficient. The Sheriff’s Office administers delivery of the JBCT Program of which services include, but are not limited to: providing restoration of competency treatment services for patient inmates who are found by the courts to be incompetent to stand trial; providing board, care, routine and non-routine medical care for patient inmates referred and admitted to the JBCT Program; and providing any administrative services required under the Agreement.
The DSH will reimburse the Sheriff’s Office for three allocated patient inmate beds at the per diem rate of $436 per bed, totaling $1,308 per day and one non-allocated patient inmate bed at the same rate. Reimbursement by the DSH also includes the cost of any administered medications. This Revenue Agreement is for one year and will not exceed $712,282.60.
The Sheriff’s Office received the final Revenue Agreement signed by the DSH on July 15, 2025, which is the reason why the Agreement is being submitted for retroactive approval.
