Audit context

What the response says and how it was assessed

Response says

County partially disagrees by citing completion certificates and other incentives, but does not address the absence of recognized school accreditation or its disincentive for some participants.

Audit analysis

Explicit partial disagreement gives a relevant but incomplete incentive rationale. Meals, visits, phone access, and out-of-cell time are specific unsupported assertions; they do not establish accreditation or resolve its motivational effect. Report physical PDF page(s) 466; County response physical PDF page(s) 61–62. Claims remain attributed; adoption date is not a filing or receipt date.
