CAROLINA CORRECTIONAL SERVICES

What they do

IN RECENT YEARS WAKE COUNTY CONTRACTED WITH CAROLINA CORRECTIONAL SERVICES (CCS) for 78 UNITS/SLOTS, HOWEVER REQUIRED CCS to HAVE A SELF-PAY COMPONENT for DEFENDANTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE BUT HAVE NOT YET MIGRATED DOWN INTO COUNTY CONTRACTED SLOTS. THIS ALLOWED for THE GPS MONITORING of MORE THAN 78 ELIGIBLE DEFENDANTS AT ANY ONE TIME THEREBY ALLOWING THE COUNTY to REDUCE ITS ACTUAL DAILY RATE PAID for THE OVERALL MONITORING SERVICE BENEFIT. CCS MANAGED and OPERATED A TURN-KEY SERVICE for THE COUNTY WHICH INCLUDED STAFFING for BOTH FIELD WORK and A COURT LIAISON POSITIONS. IN MAY 2018 CCS MANAGEMENT and THE COUNTY FOUND THEMSELVES AT AN IMPASSE AS to AN APPROPRIATE FUNDING STRUCTURE for CONTINUED MONITORING SERVICES. CCS DETERMINED IT WAS NOT IN ITS FINANCIAL INTEREST to RENEW ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COUNTY. CCS DID AGREE, HOWEVER, to CONTINUE PROVIDING MONITORING SERVICES THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 to ALLOW THE COUNTY to FIND ANOTHER SERVICE PROVIDER.
