Introducing The Daniel Dexter Story, A Young Life Cut Short By Gun Violence In A Rialto Park

I

n this three part story Black Voice News and IE Voice photojournalist Aryana Noroozi takes you inside the experiences and emotions of a Rialto family and community members whose lives changed forever on the sunny afternoon of June 1, 2022, when 22-year-old Daniel Dexter and his brother, Daelyn, were struck by bullets from a passing car as they played basketball with their cousins and friends at a local park.

Daniel did not survive and today Daelyn remains in critical condition.

Learn through story and images what happened that fateful day and the personal journeys of family and community members since the loss. Through her reporting, Aryana takes Daniel’s story out of the headlines and moves it into our hearts and minds.

It’s a story all too familiar to members of Black communities everywhere. After experiencing this loss through narrative and images Black Voice News hopes in the future when you hear or read headlines similar to, “A driveby shooting left one person dead…” you will give the incident more than a passing thought and instead be reminded that each individual killed or injured in these incidents is connected to a network of other people, who are themselves connected to a network of others–each of them will be impacted by the loss or injury behind the headline.

Why should you care about this issue? Because data shows Blacks in America bear a disproportionate burden of gun violence and gun related deaths. Every 11 minutes a Black person is shot and wounded in this country and Blacks are 10 times more likely than whites to die by gun homicide. In addition, Black people in California experienced the highest gun related death rates in the nation during the five year period 2016 through 2020.

This series also offers some ideas about how communities can and are coming together to bring an end to this violence on their own and with funding from the state.

We encourage you to engage with this series and let us know what other aspects of justice reform or any other issue you would like us to explore.

Black Voice News photojournalist Aryana Noroozi was born in San Diego, California and graduated with a master’s degree from The Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. Her love for visual storytelling led her to document immigrant and deportee communities and those struggling with addiction.

Multi-million Dollar Settlements and the Need for Government Accountability

T

he relationship between public officials and the public is considered by scholars as fiduciary in nature.“Because fiduciaries are difficult to monitor and have wide access to power over beneficiary resources and assets, fiduciaries are under rigorous obligations that ensure compliance with their role responsibilities.”

David Ponet and Ethan Lieb I can hardly think of any job where–if you continuously failed to meet performance expectations or follow policy or continuously misused employer funds–you would not be subjected to some form of disciplinary action up to and including termination.

The same does not appear to hold true however relative to elected officials and/or heads of government agencies. Again and again in the inland region, egregious failures across both counties are numerous yet the only one who feels the pinch of less than satisfactory performance are those impacted by such failures. Rarely are those who create the problems held accountable.

Consider those detained in Riverside County jails who are dying often without explanation and rarely is anyone held accountable. And then, there are the continuing stream of settlements related to office misconduct including $77M in settlements in recent years. Meanwhile, across the county failures of administration are rampant. For example, a school district settles sex abuse lawsuit with 10 elementary school children for $13.7 million; Turnover, high caseloads hinder child protective services, Riverside County grand jury says; Residents confront officials after probe finds Riverside County 'failed' 13 Turpin siblings and the list goes on.

A similar trend holds true in San Bernardino County. Inmates are dying, investigations are pending while the county also settles suits for police misconduct. In one case earlier this year the county agreed to pay $4.5 million to the family of man shot by sheriff deputies. Meanwhile, like Riverside County, San Bernardino taxpayers are victims of the same “settlements for government failures” way of life with little public accountability. For example, San Bernardino County recently settled a foster child sexual abuse case for $7.8 million; the county settled a $640,000 lawsuit with a former

top executive; the county settled a 2019 lawsuit that alleged it made it “unnecessarily difficult” to apply for General Relief Funds; San Bernardino County, California Sheriff’s Office Settles Civil Rights Suit, and just like in Riverside County, the list goes on.

Inland Empire counties settle large suits on an ongoing basis almost as if it was a normal part of doing business. But is it? And if it is, should it be?

I think most would agree an occasional misstep is to be expected but an ongoing pattern of poor practices is not.

And it now seems one of San Bernardino County’s multimillion dollar settlements may not be fully resolved.

About two years ago the county agreed to pay Rancho Cucamonga developer Jeff Burum $65 million to settle a civil case associated with criminal charges brought against him stemming from the infamous $102 million Colonies settlement related Burum’s Colonies development in Rancho Cucamonga. The county’s $102 million dollar settlement eventually resulted in criminal charges against Burum and others that did not hold up in court resulting in a subsequent suit by Burum and the Colonies Partners Investors group he leads against the county that led to the $65 million dollar settlement two years ago that is now in question.

Ironshore Specialty Insurance, a subsidiary of Liberty Mutual, that insures the county filed an insurance coverage lawsuit against San Bernardino in late August. The claim was filed in the state’s Central District Court. The suit, seeks a declaration that Ironshore has no duty to defend, indemnify or reimburse the county in connection with six

A Year Since the Signing of SB 2 - 8 of 9 Positions Remain Unfilled on ​​Peace Officer Standards Accountability Advisory Board Prince James Story | Staff

I

t’s been nearly a year since California became the 47th state to pass a bill that will bring more accountability to law enforcement across the state and establish a peace officer decertification process, something important to justice advocates across the inland region and around the state.

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill 2 (SB2) on September 30, 2021, to ensure that peace officers are not abusing their authority and to hold them accountable.

“California has one of the most progressive criminal justice systems in the nation,” said Senator Steven Bradford in a press release regarding Gov. Newsom signing Senate Bill 2. “But for too long, problematic officers that commit heinous acts in one department are either not held accountable and continue to be a problem for that community, or are punished, but able to find employment in another department. This rinse and repeat style of accountability has led to the continuous erosion of community trust.”

SB2 also expanded the list of categories that will disqualify a person from becoming a peace officer.

Importantly, the bill further dictates that Governor Newsom has until Jan. 1, 2023, to establish a Peace Officer Standards Accountability Advisory Board, which will consist of nine members that will make recommendations on the decertification of a police officer.

SB2 states, “​​ The primary responsibilities of the division [advisory board] shall be to review investigations conducted by law enforcement agencies or any other investigative authority and to conduct additional investigations, as necessary, into serious misconduct that may provide grounds for suspension or revocation of a peace officer’s certification, present findings and recommendations to the board and commission, and bring proceedings seeking the suspension or revocation of certification of peace officers as directed by the board and commission pursuant to this chapter.”

The board's makeup would consist of: • One peace officer or former peace officer with experience at a command rank.

• One peace officer or former peace officer with experience at a management rank in internal

investigations or disciplinary proceedings of police officers.

• Two members of the community who have substantial experience working at nonprofit or academic institutions on issues related to police accountability.

• Two members of the community who have substantial experience working at communitybased organizations on issues related to police accountability.

• Two community members, particularly individuals who have been subject to the wrongful use of force likely to cause death or serious bodily

New Bivalent COVID-19 Boosters Add Protection from Omicron Variant Ahead of Predicted Surge Maxim Elramsisy | Calfornia Black Media alifornia has started administering updated COVID-19 booster shots after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) approved the use of new versions of boosters of the vaccine for people aged 12 and older.

The Western State Scientific Safety Review Workgroup independently reviewed the boosters and recommended that they be given to people who have already received primary vaccinations, regardless of the booster status.

The updated boosters will be “bivalent,” offering protection against the original coronavirus strains, as well as improved immunity to the currently dominant BA.4 and BA.5 strains, also known as the Omicron variants.

The Pfizer/BioNTech bivalent booster is available for people 12 years and older, while the Moderna bivalent booster is approved for those 18 years and older. The bivalent boosters have not been authorized for children under the age of 12.

“We are getting closer to an analogy with the flu vaccines,” Dr. Gil Chavez, Senior Medical Officer, Office of the State Epidemiologist, California Department of Public Health, said during a recent ethnic media sponsored COVID-19 panel discussion with other medical doctors and public health officials: Dr. Maggie Park, County Public Health Officer, San Joaquin County Public Health Services; Dr. Oliver Brooks, Chief Medical Officer, Watts Healthcare; and Dr. Eva Smith, Medical Director, K'imaw Medical Center.

Annual Booster According to Chavez, “Whereas you know every year we have to get an influenza vaccine to ensure that we get the updated vaccine... with COVID-19, we are moving in the same direction where we believe that it will be important to have at least an annual booster.”

“The goal, and our hope, is to continue on a path of a low number of cases and prevent a surge in COVID cases this winter. That is why public health officials urge individuals to get the

In California, 72% of all people have received primary vaccinations, but only 58.8% of those eligible for boosters have received a booster shot.

updated booster,” Chavez said.

Officials reiterate that, though boosters will prevent disease for some people, they are critically important to prevent people who contract COVID from getting seriously ill, to the point where they may be hospitalized and potentially die.

The vaccines are also an important tool for preventing “long COVID,” where symptoms such as headaches, brain fog, and fatigue can be prolonged for more than six months.

In July, a surge in infections driven by the highly transmissible BA.5 subvariant almost pushed Los Angeles County, for example, to reinstitute a universal indoor mask mandate.

“BA.5 has been the predominant circulating

variant since July and is still and now accounts for about 87% of all newly diagnosed cases of COVID, with BA.4 pretty much accounting for the rest,” said Park. “I want to say that the rollout of this new booster is actually quite timely, as many models are predicting that we're facing another COVID-19 surge this fall or winter and we need to be ready.”

While scientists believe many people infected in the most recent COVID surge will have natural immunity for some time, this type of protection begins to wane after around 90 days. So, even people who have had COVID in the past should consider getting a booster around 3 months after being infected.

Starting Over Part 2: Enter At Your Own Risk

Breanna Reeves | Staff

Reentering your community and rebuilding life after paying one’s debt to society is often riddled with unexpected obstacles and impeded by limited access to support. In this series, you will follow the reentry journey of Michael Jurado, a formerly incarcerated individual, as he navigates the challenges faced by himself and others as they struggle to cleanse themselves of the stigma of incarceration and discover the community organizations working valiantly to fill gaps in support left open by state and local governments.

M

ichael Jurado remembers being released from state prison in Corcoran, California, in October 2017. It was a Thursday and 31 years after he’d resigned to spend the rest of his life in prison.

A Los Angeles native, Jurado cycled through the criminal court system from age 17. He spent a year in a juvenile detention camp after being accused of brandishing a firearm in Inglewood. At age 21, he was arrested for his involvement in a robbery that resulted in one person’s death and another being seriously injured. The charges carried the death penalty, but Jurado was ultimately sentenced to 57 years to life under a plea agreement.

Jurado expected to spend the days following his release with his family in L.A. before he started a mandatory transitional program in San Diego. But, he

(Illustration by Chuck Bibbs, VOICE)

was only able to spend one night at home. His parole officer told him he was going to start his program immediately.

Successful reintegration into society can be difficult to measure, but there are some factors that are considered important to researchers in reducing the chance that a formerly incarcerated person will reoffend. A 2011 Justice Quarterly article explained that social ties to family and stable employment are two key factors that play a role in the reentry process.

Dr. Annika Anderson is a sociology professor at California State University, San Bernardino. She also leads the CSU San Bernardino chapter of Project Rebound, a program that supports formerly incarcerated individuals pursuing their degree. In her research, she examines how community characteristics like high poverty and crime rates, access to services and family acceptance can impact reintegration.

“We have to remember that people who have committed crimes are also family members. They’re spouses, they’re parents, and they can positively contribute to society, especially if they’re given a second chance,” said Anderson.

Through it all, Jurado said his family was always supportive. He served four years of his sentence at Pelican Bay State Prison in Northern California, a 730-

mile trip one-way from Los Angeles.

Jurado said that his family – especially his mother – was his “main support system” while he was in prison. “They made that 18-hour trip up there to visit me. That resonated with me because it didn’t matter where I went, they were always supportive,” he said.

A new law and Jurado’s “controlling offense” Jurado never expected to be released from prison, let alone an early release.

He was prepared to live out the rest of his life in prison for a crime he committed as a young man. Serving the minimum sentencing term, he would have been nearly 80 years-old if he was ever released.

But, a new state law passed in 2017 required the Board of Parole Hearings to consider parole for any offender’s “controlling offense” committed before they turned 25. A “controlling offense” is the charge a person was sentenced to that carries the longest amount of time incarcerated. (Effectively, this law eliminated life without parole terms for juvenile offenders because these offenders became eligible for parole in their 25th year of incarceration.) Jurado was granted early parole at his first hearing, a very rare decision by the parole board.

“I know God’s hand was in my freedom, and now it’s [about] what I’m going to do with this blessing. So, going into a reentry program was always a part of that transition. My thing is, most lifers are mandated to go to a program. [But,] what about people that don’t have life sentences?” Jurado asked.

In California, access to programs and services once an individual is released is dependent on parameters including funding, sentencing conditions, continued on page 14

“Lizzie Buchen will bring her years of experience working to reduce incarceration and improve police accountability to the advisory board,” said CA Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins in a press release. (File photo: source:sd39.senate.ca.gov/).

Status of board member selections and appointments Currently, Elizabeth “Lizzie” Buchen is the only person who has been appointed to the board.

The Senate Rules Committee announced her appointment to the board on March 2.

She will fill one of the spots under the category of community member who is part of a communitybased organization who has experience with working with police accountability.

“Lizzie Buchen will bring her years of experience working to reduce incarceration and improve police accountability to the advisory board,” Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins said in a press release. “Last year, Senator Bradford and I authored Senate Bill 2 to ensure that the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training can consider new voices as it assesses cases of potential peace officer misconduct. Lizzie’s expertise in working with communities on these issues will serve the Commission well as the new board performs this important oversight.”

Buchen has worked for the Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice.

She worked as a Statewide advocacy and communications coordinator for Californians United for a Responsible Budget.

She spent five years working for the ACLU of

Northern California, three years as a legislative advocate, and two years as the Criminal Justice Director.

Buchen now provides consulting services which focus on social justice policy and advocacy.

The initial members of the board term lengths will be slightly different from their successors; three members will be appointed for a one-year term, three members will serve a two-year term, and three members will serve a three-year term.

For their successors, each member will serve a three-year term, and no one shall serve more than two terms consecutively.

In late August the Black Voice News reached out to Governor Newsom's press office by email for a status regarding progress on the selection of members to fill the nine-member advisory board since only Buchman has been appointed to date and the January 1, 2023 deadline is rapidly approaching.

They responded, “The Governor’s Office expects to announce appointments by the time the Advisory Board is established and begins meeting pursuant to the provisions of SB 2.

Interested parties are encouraged to complete the appointment application form found online at www.gov.ca.gov/appointments .”

Introducing the Daniel Dexter Story, A Life Cut S

The brothers were both struck by bullets from an unknown vehicle while playing basketball at Alec Fergusson Park in Rialto on June 1, 2022. Daniel’s injury was fatal.

by Ayrana Noroozi

The Daniel Dexter story is one that is all too familiar to members of Black communities everywhere. On the sunny afternoon of June 1, 2022, 22-year-old Daniel Dexter and his brother, Daelyn, were struck by bullets from a passing car as they played basketball at a neighborhood park in the city of Rialto. Their family, as well as neighbors who did not know the brothers but came to their aid that day, had their lives forever changed.

Three months after the tragedy these individuals share their stories of loss, their struggles to come to grips with what they experienced, and their efforts to move forward in the wake of such grievous loss. Black Voice News photojournalist Aryana Noroozi takes the story out of the headlines–and through narrative and images– places it in our hearts. t was supposed to be a new chapter for 22 year old Daniel Dexter and his family.

Daniel, known as Dex to his family and friends, had just started a new job in shipping at the Ontario Airport and was looking into joining the military. His mother, Lauren Taylor-Mayweather, had just earned her bachelor's degree and was about to begin nursing school.

On June 1, the family arrived at Daniel’s younger sister’s elementary school graduation, eager to celebrate. After the ceremony, the family made plans to reconvene that evening and continue the celebration.

Daniel and his brother, Daelyn, headed back to their grandmother Faye’s home, where Daniel lived.

The brothers were excited to spend the next few hours playing basketball, teasing each other about who would take more losses on the court. Both were firmly convinced it would be the other.

As the brothers headed out the door, Faye immediately thought about Daniel working that night. Daniel, originally from Adelanto, had moved to Faye’s home in Rialto to be closer to his job at the Ontario Airport.

“Don’t forget you have work tonight,” she told him, her maternal instinct kicking in to ensure Daniel remembered he must leave for work around 2 a.m.

Daniel assured her that he knew. The brothers exchanged “I love yous” with their grandmother and headed out the door.

On that sunny afternoon, less than a mile from Faye’s home, Daniel,

On the day of the incident, Denby and Michael Jr. heard the gunshots from their home and ran to the scene where they found Daniel and Daelyn; (Right): Faye sits in the spot she was when a construction worker remodeling her bathroom said he heard gunshots through the window. She says most mornings she wakes up and forgets all of this is real for just a moment; (Bottom left): A peace lily sits in Faye’s kitchen, a place she and Daniel would bond over making meals. “I wish I had just told him to stay home and make the banana pudding,” Faye said.

Daelyn, their cousins and friends played basketball at Alec Fergusson Park but their game was cut short and the brothers did not return home.

The brothers were both struck by bullets from an unknown vehicle.

Daniel’s injury was fatal.

Over two months later, Faye, who requested that her last name be withheld, says she can’t stop staring at the door. “I wish I had just told him to stay home and make the banana pudding,” she said. “Because it was his favorite.”

Weeks after his death Faye said the bananas she had bought to teach him the family recipe, remained in the basket.

Michael Denby, who lives across the street from Alec Fergusson Park, was getting ready to head there with his son, Michael Denby Jr. and grandson, Nasir.

Denby Sr. was preparing to leave when he heard what he thought was a firework. But then he heard another one and another, and they didn’t stop. He quickly realized he was hearing gunshots. He ran to his living room, frantically searching for his son and grandson, and found that they were still inside. He shouted for them to get away from the window, which he then approached.

Peeking through, Denby could discern someone injured across the street in the park. “I told my wife, ‘something happened, call 911,’” he

said. “Meanwhile, I see my son, Michael Jr., he ran across the street.”

Denby Sr. saw that the park, which moments before was bustling with people, was now empty. He followed his son, and within thirty seconds caught up to him on the grassy knoll beside the basketball courts.

That’s when he first saw Daniel and his brother Daelyn laying side by side. Both appeared to be struck by bullets. Denby Sr. would later learn, based on forensics, that Daelyn was shot while attempting to help Daniel.

He tried his best to make Daniel comfortable while Michael Jr. did the same for Daelyn.

“Just looking at Dex’s eyes, they caught me,” said Denby.

“At the time, I wish I knew his name.”

Denby Sr. called out to his wife across the street for towels and water.

He told her not to leave their porch, running back and forth to grab the supplies. *** Faye was still home. She says she can recall what she was doing, down to the very exact place she was sitting at the time: on the couch in her living room, watching television. Her bathroom was under construction and the man working on it had opened a window for ventilation. He appeared from the hallway into the living room. continued on page 12

underlying malicious prosecution lawsuits which the county settled for $69 million.

Ironshore claims the county entered into the settlement agreement without its consent. It also asserts that the 2011 prosecutions against Burum and others were part of a “conspiracy to retaliate against the Colonies II Plaintiffs as part of a decades-long dispute over land and water rights in Upland [which resulted in the initial $102 million settlement] culminating in a malicious prosecution of Burum.”

How the the insurer’s action against the county will ultimately resolve is yet to be determined and is just the latest chapter in the Colonies saga that has dragged on for 20 years. Every action and reaction over this extensive period has cost taxpayers untold amounts in legal fees that will only become publicly available when the cases come to final closure.

According to a report by insurancenewsnet.com, no matter how the issue resolves Ironshore is not responsible for the full $69 million settlement. Its policy with the county is only for payments above $52.5 million. As a result, if Ironshore loses it will be required to pay $16.5 million for the settlement. On the other hand however, if Ironshore is successful, county taxpayers will be left accountable for this amount.

Sixteen million nine hundred dollars may be just another check written to correct leadership and system failures by San Bernardino officials like the laundry lists detailed above. But, $16.9 million is a lot of money to residents in a county like San Bernardino where the poverty rate is higher than state and national averages. Certainly $16.9 million dollars could be better used to feed those in local food deserts, house the county’s homeless, and/or dozens of other worthy endeavors to help empower local residents.

This case also highlights the need for accountability mentioned earlier in this piece.

Where is the accountability for this 20 year fiasco? What has changed in planning commission procedures to ensure such complications over land and water rights are avoided in relation to future developments or has the county just been lucky over the past 20 years? As climate change and drought continue to impact water supplies, issues related to water rights become more critical. The community deserves answers to these questions.

Of course this is just my opinion. I’m keeping it real.

“Did you hear that? I think it was a gunshot,” he said.

Faye grabbed her phone and called her grandsons. When they didn’t answer she got in her car and drove to the park.

Blocks away, Denby and his son continued trying to bring comfort to Daniel and Daelyn as they waited for emergency services to arrive. An Uber Eats driver also stopped his car to approach the four men. He called his mother who quickly arrived and held a prayer circle around the young men. Soon after, emergency services arrived.

By the time Faye arrived at the park it was blocked off by Rialto police. She approached them with a photo of her grandsons and soon learned that they were both injured.

availability of services and location. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) operates 10 reentry programs: Six are for newly released people who have been paroled and four are residential programs where offenders can complete their remaining sentence in lieu of prison confinement. And, of the 10 programs, three are exclusively for women.

Process failures in access to state’s rehabilitative programs Access to programs in prison is determined by assessments that examine a person’s risk to reoffend, their behavioral needs and educational needs. State facilities offer in-prison programs in efforts by CDCR to increase rehabilitative services that reduce the odds newly released people will reoffend or be rearrested, what’s known as recidivism.

However, a study of in-prison rehabilitative programs by the California State Auditor found that CDCR failed to consistently place incarcerated people on waitlists for rehabilitation programs and didn’t correctly prioritize those with the highest levels of need. The Auditor concluded that 62% of imprisoned persons who were released in fiscal year 2017-18 were released without having their rehabilitative needs met, despite being identified as having a high risk of reoffending post-release.

Rehabilitative services offered in CDCR facilities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to treat substance abuse and rebuild family relationships, vocational education training programs and academic classes. Despite these offerings, some people leave prison without having ever received or participated in any programming. And, they’re released with no guarantee of rehabilitative programming to help them re-enter society.

Newly released people in California often leave prison with just two hundred dollars — if they’re lucky. It’s not uncommon for a newly released individual to have no housing, employment or even transportation in place upon release. Jurado explained that from the time a person leaves prison with about $200 loaded onto a debit card they’re issued, they’re constantly chipping away at the only money they have to pay for necessities needed to leave the prison grounds.

Activation fee: $3. Bus ticket home: $87.

First meal post-release: $20.

“So by the time you get home, you might have like $96 or something, and that’s what you’re supposed to base your future on — $96. You don’t have any clothes but what you brought with you from prison,” Jurado said. “It’s like a setup for failure and [there’s]

T H E

N E W S

nothing in place that can assist these people getting out of prison in succeeding.”

Jurado believes that anyone released from prison should be afforded the opportunity to enter a transitional program, regardless of sentencing or time spent in prison. Anderson, however, suggests a different approach: risk needs assessment. The sociologist explains that it’s important to assess the needs of individuals on a case-by-case basis and examine their circumstances in order to address their immediate needs.

“We really need to think about how there’s not a one size fits all approach to everyone’s reentry process, especially in terms of the programs that we recommend individuals take,” Anderson said.

Anderson’s model relies on examining risks to specifically target people for “intensive services” based on their personal risk levels. “Who’s at a higher risk for recidivism compared to others?” she said. Anderson’s model hinges on thinking about what people need holistically, as a whole person with specific needs, in order to reduce their chances of reoffending.

A new approach to reentry Transitional housing programs are geared toward helping vulnerable populations who may be experiencing housing and job insecurity. These programs offer structure and stability for individuals who need support and encouragement amid uncertainty. Such programs can play a vital role in the successful reentry of people newly released from prison.

Measuring the success of reentry is subjective and relative to specific components of a program, but some studies have demonstrated that communitybased programs have positive outcomes. A 2019 analysis of successful approaches to reentry by the Harvard University Institute of Politics explains that community-based organizations emphasize other factors that lead to successful reentry because their priorities often differ from those of governmentbased organizations: “Many of the criticisms of government-based organizations center on the fact that most of these programs focus on work and employability alone.

Although these programs are successful to the extent that beneficiaries are able to secure jobs, these programs often fail to target the intersection of issues present at unemployment for formerly incarcerated citizens, nor do they focus on success in that particular job. On an even larger scale, these governmentbased programs tend to fail the communities they set out to help because they are rooted in states that consistently invest financial capital into incarcerating

Incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals’ rehabilitative needs are assessed, but many are not always guaranteed access to services.

people while never focusing on the root of the crimes that plague the neighborhoods they often target.

“These issues often fall into the sphere of community-based programs, which emphasize larger continued on page 14

issues of access to social services like healthcare, housing, and economic development.”

The analysis referenced the success of a community-based reentry program in Colorado called Work and Gain Education and Employment Skills (WAAGES) that reported a 2.5% recidivism rate for program members.

Additionally, a report published by the Justice Policy Institute last year compiled recommendations for improving reentry based on an analysis of Washington D.C. reentry service providers and stakeholders. Increasing representation of employees with lived experience in prison who can help others returning home.

Vonya Quarles launched Starting Over, Inc. in 2009 to work with individuals “who are returning, or who are carrying the collateral consequences of a criminal conviction.”

Quarles is an attorney, executive director of Starting Over and a founding member of the Riverside chapter of All of Us or None (AOUON), a grassroots organization that advocates for the rights of formerly and currently incarcerated people and their families. She also has firsthand experience with the prison system as a formerly incarcerated individual herself.

Quarles explains that it’s easy to write people off who have past criminal or felony convictions that can impact their reentry and reintegration process.

But Starting Over and other community-based organizations seek to stop that way of thinking by reminding the community that formerly incarcerated persons deserve the same opportunities afforded to everyone else.

A new start Starting Over blends direct services with civic engagement. The organization offers supportive services, including transitional housing with sober living and harm reduction, peer support, employment and financial and legal literacy services.

Starting Over teaches those seeking services to be advocates for themselves and people like them.

A holistic approach from community-based programs like Starting Over can lead to better outcomes.

Since opening in 2009, Starting Over has helped hundreds of women, men and children who have been impacted by the criminal justice system in some way.

According to Quarles, Starting Over provides transitional housing to approximately 150 people per year while serving and working with an additional 400 people across other programs offered, such as

the post conviction relief clinic, participatory defense hub, case management and advocacy programs like the Family Reunification Equity, and Empowerment (FREE) project.

Research published by Dr. Anderson, Noe J. Nava and Patricia Cortez in 2015 found that essential human needs’ resources like housing and food assistance, and legal assistance were two of the most frequently requested services among newly released individuals in San Bernardino County.

Starting Over has supported more than 7,000 people since opening, despite being a small organization that Quarles describes as underfunded.

Jurado chose to complete a transitional program in San Diego because he wanted to give himself a better chance at success, which meant leaving behind his old neighborhood and acquaintances. During the program, Jurado had stable housing, daily access to counselors, group counseling sessions, support, and transportation when he needed to complete important tasks like getting his driver’s license.

Recognizing the barriers to successful reentry created by problems with the state’s corrections system, Jurado began working with the San Diego chapter AOUON, which led him to Starting Over.

Jurado met Quarles when he relocated to

14 VOICE | SEPTEMBER 22, 2022 | theievoice.com

Riverside, where his family lived after he completed his transitional program in San Diego. Then, Quarles was the director of the Riverside chapter of AOUON. When Jurado and Quarles met, she asked him where he saw himself fitting into Starting Over.

“She said, ‘Well, you make your position,’” Jurado recalled. So, he started as a volunteer with the organization.

Starting Over partners with other organizations such as AOUON to address and campaign against discriminatory policies that impact incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people. For instance, the Family Reunification, Equity and Empowerment (FREE) Project supports families who are navigating Child Protective Services and advocates for family reunification.

Partnerships have been critical in distinguishing Starting Over from other service-providing organizations because it combines direct services with policy and advocacy. Starting Over implements a “strength-based approach” to work with individuals — supporting and valuing the work they do and encouraging their self-advocacy.

Missteps moving forward The prison system, arduous to navigate and difficult to leave behind, penalized Jurado again a few years after his release. He violated a condition of his parole when he visited his girlfriend’s son in prison.

In California, vaccine hesitancy persists.

Seventy-two percent of all people have received primary vaccinations, but only 58.8% of people eligible for boosters have received a booster.

This is worrisome because, according to Dr. Brooks, “unvaccinated people [account for] 2.4 times more cases, 4.6 times more hospitalizations, eight times more deaths.”

Brooks shared a concept to combat vaccine hesitancy by responding to the common points of resistance in his patients, called the three C’s - complacency, confidence, and convenience.

Complacency afflicts those who think that COVID is over -- or are fatigued and overwhelmed by the fact that, for the past couple of years, the virus has dominated many facets of life. Yet, it is still evolving to become more highly transmissible and more evasive of immunity from infection or vaccination. According to statistics from the Los Angeles County of Public Health, the Omicron variant killed people in all age groups at a higher rate than motor vehicle crashes.

People are concerned about the safety of the vaccines because of “misinformation that's being perpetuated in our communities,” according to Park. “But with all the millions of doses that have been given in the United States and around the world today, we have so much information about them, and we do know that they're safe,” she said.

Ease of access Many in the community have expressed concerns that the vaccine was created too fast to be safe and reliable,” Brooks said, “The mRNA platform… that's been around for 11 years or so; it was developed when we had SARS CoV1 so a lot of people forget because it didn't go pandemic and then MERS, which was Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome, which similar, so we use that mRNA platform.”

Many people are also contending that the shots don’t work, as they are still getting infected. Park said, “People say[ing] ‘My friend is fully vaccinated and boosted but she's still got COVID,’ and to that, I say yes, but is she still alive? And yes, of course, she is. We never promised that the vaccinations would mean you

wouldn't get COVID… What we know is that your chance of getting COVID decreases with vaccines, but the decrease is even greater when it comes to your chance of being hospitalized or dying.”

As for convenience, vaccines are now available at locations across the state with relative ease of access and at no charge. There are no anticipated supply constraints. So, there are no groups that are being given priority.

violations” — can result in reincarceration, a factor that contributes to the steady recidivism rate in California. According to The Washington Post, 58.8% of California’s parolees went back to prison for a technical violation in fiscal year 2018-19.

California defines recidivism as “when a person is convicted of a subsequent crime within three years of being released from custody.” A California State Auditor report found recidivism rates for inmates in California have averaged nearly 50% over the last decade.

“I was inclined to go visit [my girlfriend’s son] and try to inspire him and just encourage him. I was rearrested as an ex-felon on prison grounds,” Jurado explained. “Vonya represented me in that criminal case. She got the case dismissed, but being a life inmate, I had to go in front of the [parole] board.”

The board found Jurado suitable for release after completing a 14-month sentence. He joined Quarles at Starting Over as a participatory defense coordinator.

Jurado’s job is to help families that have loved ones with open criminal cases create social biographies to help humanize their loved ones in front of the court and foster community support for the accused.

“In terms of my job assignment, I also assist with food distribution where we give out food every second and fourth Friday of every month. I do outreach, too.

I don’t keep myself in a narrow lane. I try to assist wherever I’m needed,” said Jurado.

The need for sustainable funding While community-based programs have proven to have some impact on reentry success, sometimes more than government-led programs, these programs struggle to receive funding at the same level.

When Starting Over initially began, funding was scarce on the heels of the 2008

financial crisis. Quarles and her team did what they could to provide direct services.

“What we came to understand was that it was very, very difficult for Black-led organizations to get funding,” Quarles said. “So much so that funders began to recognize the disparity of who was getting funding, who had access to resources and capital, and who didn’t.”

It wasn’t until 2020, during racial protests in the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic, that Starting Over experienced an influx of resources they’d never had or expected.

The organization learned to look beyond the local sector for funding and began extending their search for funding to the state and federal levels.

However, the limited amount of funding allocated to community-based organizations is a symptom of a flawed system in which local programs aren’t prioritized nor are the communities they serve.

“We get about 45% of our budget from foundations and 45% from adult reentry [state] grants,” Quarles explained. “And 10% from private donors, board members, board fundraisers, etcetera.”

Starting Over, ACLU of Southern California and AOUON submitted a joint complaint last July, citing misuse of funds from the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The funds were designated for programs specifically addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, but the complaint alleges millions of dollars given to Riverside County went to the Riverside Sheriff’s Department.

According to the complaint, the department used the funds for non-pandemic purposes: $2.7 million for office renovations, $1.3 million to upgrade its key card/video camera system and $660,000 to bulletproof its windows.

Funding for such programs has proven to be complex especially when dealing with pandemicrelated issues such as health care for persons being released from state and local facilities. The organizations are still awaiting a decision regarding the recovery of the CARES Act funds.

With several dedicated donor partners and annual fundraiser luncheons, Starting Over manages to encourage, support and provide services for a community of people that society tends to write off.

“What’s amazing to me is that we’ll keep doing something that we know isn’t working over and over and over again. And that’s the way I see the criminal justice system — we know it’s not effective,” Quarles said, explaining that she will continue to ask why the same structure is in place if it doesn’t work and offer up more effective alternatives.
