Corrections: Reentry Advisory Committee.

Existing law requires the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to establish a Reentry Advisory Committee, comprised as specified, to advise the secretary on matters related to the successful planning, implementation, and outcomes of all reentry programs and services in the department, with the goal of reducing recidivism. Existing law repeals these provisions on January 1, 2011. This bill would impose additional requirements on the committee, including that the committee seek and apply for federal funds, develop a comprehensive strategic reentry plan seeking to reduce the recidivism rate, develop a comprehensive resource guide for entities working to address reentry issues, and issue reports, as specified. The bill would expand the membership of the committee. The bill would extend the repeal date on these provisions until January 1, 2016.
