CCPEC Program and Services Workgroup 2026

This workgroup meets on the 2nd Tuesday of the month in April, August, and October, from 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm. While the topics may vary from meeting to meeting, the goal remains the same: to ensure that programs, supports, and services for the Realignment community are welcoming, accessible, and available to those who need and want them.

This month’s agenda with details on the discussion topics will be sent out at a later date, before the meeting. Please join us as we listen, share, and work together to strengthen our system for everyone it touches.

This is an open public meeting, and we encourage you to share the invitation widely. The more diverse the voices and experiences in the room, the better our outcomes will be. It is especially important that we hear from people who are, or have been, part of the Realignment community. Our neighbors and friends who have lived through the challenges we are trying to address deserve the power to influence how services are designed, delivered, and experienced. This workgroup creates space for exactly that. Please join us as we work to improve the reentry experience in Alameda County.

The CCPEC created this workgroup to ensure availability of, and access to, effective/results-oriented services for the Realignment population from the continuum of charging through successful reentry.

The CCPEC charged us to do this by:

  • Cataloging existing programs and services, including those being provided by community based organizations
  • Identifying program barriers to access services; seek to fill gaps and augment existing services as necessary
  • Enhancing and supporting the use and integration of Evidence Based Practices (EBPs) across all agencies and providers
  • Review assessment tools; recommend changes as needed
  • Continuing and enhancing in custody transitional services.
  • Accessing service utilization

 

The CCPEC’s objectives for this workgroup are:

  • Have a common understanding of programs and services being used for and needed by Realigned clients;
  • Have an array of programs and services designed to meet identified needs of the population;
  • Increased the effectiveness of service delivery and enable reporting of county wide EBPs; and
  • Expedite delivery of services to improve outcomes and facilitate and support reentry and rehabilitation
