- LA County supervisors move to restore funding for jail diversion programs
LA County supervisors approved a measure to restore funding for jail diversion programs, reversing a clerical error that inadvertently repealed a 2020 voter-approved initiative. The new measure, set for a November ballot, aims to ensure continued investment in alternatives to incarceration, such as job training and mental health treatment.
