Chair asks remaining family court coordination challenges; Dessimore cites staffing
Brooks-Powers asks what challenges remain in coordinating probation services with family court. Dessimore says some boroughs need more staff and one or two more CLOs, but she meets regularly with courts and judges to keep communication open.
And what challenges remain in coordinating probation services with family court?
I think, again, we probably need some boroughs maybe need a little bit more staff and one or two more CLOs just to be available for the court.
I meet with the courts regularly, so we have that great open communication.
I met with the Bronx judges, so we just talk about any issues and concerns.
So it's just making sure that they're readily available and that the information is flowing.
Thank you for that.
