services or service area or general agency operations? The money will be used to pay the salaries of the
Upper and Lower Keys Center's Teacher's Assistant positions. This will allow more one on one
assistance for students in the academic area, who require remediation, and allow us to meet the new
Legislative mandate which was signed into law last week. This mandate extends our academic year
from 1a0 days + 25 days for summer school totalling 205 days to 250 academia days.

have received this past year. PACE Center for Girls is an innovative alternative therapeutic, gender -

dropped oat, and is the only one of its kind in Monroe County. PACE Center for Girls has been rated the
number one Juvenile Justice program in Florida for the past five years based on Quality Assurance
audits by the Auditor General's office of over 500 programs. Moores county's two centers haw both
received 'Deemed Status" based on their Quality Assurance Reviews over the past year.
5. Identify any special factors that should be considered when making final funding decisions. Include comments on
significant changes in revenue or expense items as compared to previous years. Also explain any non - recurring or

typically raised $20,000 as the local contribution to our annual budget, this fiscal year we have a
$56,252 shortfall, *35,025 of which is due to recent mandates, which we plan to remedy Legislatively.
All DJJ education programs were considered residential which we are not. This was an unintended
result of the legislation. We are also seeking funds from the Sheriffs fine & forfeiture funds, and
lslamorada, Village of Islands, to assist us in meeting this year's local contribution.
