Service Plan (CLSP) encompasses all of the service planning requirements for Local Mental Health Authorities (LMHAs) and Local Behavioral Health Authorities (LBHAs). The CLSP has three sections: Local Services and Needs, the Psychiatric Emergency Plan, and Plans and Priorities for System Development. CLSP asks for information related to community stakeholder involvement in local planning efforts. HHSC recognizes that community engagement is an ongoing activity, and input received throughout the biennium will be reflected in the local plan. LMHAs and LBHAs may use a variety of methods to solicit additional stakeholder input specific to the local plan as needed. In completing the template, please provide concise answers, using bullet points. When necessary, add additional rows or replicate tables to provide space for a full response.

  • South Congress Prostitution Problem Is Said to Be About 150 Years Old
    99-03 So. Congress Prostitution Problem April 1999 ABSTRACT C>outh Austin's century and half year old history of prostitution which was on the Grand Avenue leading to the Capitol of the State of Texas, was responsible for disrupting the lives of business people and the citizens who live there. In 1992 citizens began meeting with the police to express their concerns over the growing problem of prostitution, especially the presence of a hill top pornographic theater across from a junior high school. Using police stings, they often netted over a hundred "Johns" along with an elected state official. It 1995 a new way of addressing the problem was formally put into action. A.P.D. Crime Net South officers began to address the issues of prostitution by using the SARA model. Now a former feed store and hot bed for prostitution, has become a Mexican Restaurant where President Bill Clinton ate. SCANNING: The Crime Net unit looked at the long history of prostitution, they surveyed police reports, talked to fellow officers and with citizens. They found that a high number of police calls for service were taking place at several motels along South Congress. They used surveillance, undercover buys, stepped up patrols and the abatement law to gather additional information ANALYSIS: In assessing the problem they found that the motels in question seemed to encourage and support the presences of the prostitute by allowing them on the property along with drug dealers. Sometimes the motel employees were the drug dealers. RESPONSE: They meet with the owners and neighborhood associations to talk about the problems.

  • Austin Police Department Patrol Utilization Study
    AUSTIN POLICE DEPARTMENT PATROL UTILIZATION STUDY FINAL REPORT July 2012 1120 Connecticut Avenue NW, Suite 930 Washington, DC 20036 Executive Summary Sworn Staffing for the Austin Police Department The Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) was retained by the City of Austin to provide the Austin City Council and City Executives with recommendations for an innovative, sustainable method to determine current and future police department staffing needs. The objectives of the study include: reviewing the current demand for sworn law enforcement, including calls for service, investigative workload, staffing for special events, and utilization of support staff; examining benchmarks for police staffing that are used in a sample of U.S. cities with populations from 500,000 to one million; gathering information on local community expectations regarding perceptions of safety, crime reduction strategies, community policing, and patrol utilization; recommending a methodology for the calculation of police staffing needs that can be updated and replicated by city staff in the future; and providing recommendations regarding three- to five-year staffing projections based on the community-based goals. Assessing Police Staffing Officers per Thousand Population One measure that has been used for some time to assess officer staffing levels in Austin has been a ratio of officers per thousand residents. For a number of years the City has used “two per thousand” as its benchmark for minimum police staffing. The city’s population in April 2012 was listed as 824,205 which would dictate that the sworn staffing of the Austin Police Department (APD) be authorized at a minimum of 1,648. Although the two-per-thousand ratio is convenient and provides dependable increases in police staffing as the city’s population rises, it does not appear to be based on an objective assessment of policing needs in Austin.

After its presentation in Austin, the exhibition will travel to Aspen in fall 2019. Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? March 30 – July 14, 2019 MARCH 18, 2019, AUSTIN, TEXAS – From March 30 through July 14, 2019, The Contemporary Austin—led by Executive Director and CEO Louis Grachos—will present an exhibition by artist Abraham Cruzvillegas (born 1968 in Mexico City) at its Jones Center location, 700 Congress Avenue in downtown Austin. Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? will fill both floors of the museum with site-specific, mixed media work in which recycled materials are transformed into abstract sculptural objects. These objects are then used as platforms to engage other artists, community members, and museum visitors as active participants in the artworks, allowing for creativity, experimentation, and social dialogue through collaborative “activations” that complete and transform the works on view. The exhibition is co-organized by Heather Pesanti, Chief Curator & Director of Curatorial Affairs at The Contemporary Austin, and Heidi Zuckerman, the Nancy and Bob Magoon CEO and Director of the Aspen Art Museum, where the exhibition will be on view from October 25, 2019, through January 2020. Abraham Cruzvillegas’s dynamic artistic practice begins with the concept of autoconstrucción—loosely defined as “self-construction,” an idea inspired by the artist’s home outside Mexico City and his interest in transformation, collaboration, and improvisation.
