Summary: The Justice Advisory Council’s No Place To Stay (NPTS) housing program provides housing for individuals ordered onto pre-trial electronic monitoring (EM) but who lack sufficient housing where EM could be implemented. These individuals may otherwise have to wait in the jail for their pre-trial period to resolve or their electronic monitoring condition of release to be removed. The JAC has retained providers to supply housing to the supervising authorities of Cook County’s electronic monitoring programs so these individuals do not have to unnecessarily spend time in the jail.
The JAC is seeking to enter into a new contract, pursuant to our RFQ No. 1205-RS241 Housing Services and Wraparound Supports, with a variety of providers each providing housing placements, and some level of wraparound services including set periods of extended stay and aftercare for individuals whose cases resolve but would benefit for some additional days of housing to ensure continuation of helpful services and better re-integration into their communities. All payments under these contracts are for placements that we actually utilize, i.e. no payments are made for vacancies. Boys To Men will provide 6 placements at a rate of $100.00 per night.
