Community Corrections Advisory Board - Jan 8, 2026
Emmet County's state-funded programs — pretrial supervision, risk assessment, and treatment — supervise people charged with crimes instead of jailing them while they await court. The first-quarter report shows pretrial supervision is busy with 25 enrollments and a 93.1% appearance/safety rate, and spending is tracking under budget. How well these programs work affects jail bed use and county costs.
