With an increasing share of inmates in the city\u2019s jails struggling with behavioral health issues\u2014from about 30 percent in 2010 to nearly 40 percent in 2014\u2014the Mayor appointed a task force in June 2014 to develop a plan to improve the way the criminal justice system addresses the needs of this population. Six months later, the task force issued a plan with five key components and a price tag of $134 million over four years, all but $40 million of it is funded by the city itself. While the task force report identified the total amount of spending, there was no breakdown of the spending for each initiative. IBO has obtained detailed spending plans from the Mayor\u2019s Office of Criminal Justice, which are shown below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ibo.nyc.ny.us\/cgi-park2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/nycbtn50chartwebfinal.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1269 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/ibo.nyc.ny.us\/cgi-park2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/nycbtn50chartwebfinal.png\" alt=\"nycbtn50chartwebfinal\" width=\"812\" height=\"321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ibo.nyc.ny.us\/cgi-park2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/nycbtn50chartwebfinal.png 812w, https:\/\/ibo.nyc.ny.us\/cgi-park2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/nycbtn50chartwebfinal-300x119.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 812px) 100vw, 812px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\u00a0Prepared by Nashla Salas<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>New York City Independent Budget Office<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Print version available <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1XP6nXc\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before the recent announcement of ThriveNYC, the de Blasio Administration\u2019s initiatives to improve access to mental health programs for youth, adults, and seniors, the Mayor had previously launched measures to boost behavioral health programs for the city\u2019s inmate population.
