Lack of Use of Diversion Programs Sample Clauses

Lack of Use of Diversion Programs. As stated a number of times in past Compliance Reports, existing programs have been underutilized as a means to reduce DMC. While SHAPE, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, JIFF, Operation Safe Community and the Defending Childhood Initiative grant represent good efforts, relatively they serve a small number of youth. In addition, while a survey of existing contracts and services is provided what is missing an examination of how such relationships could be better used to address DMC. Alternatives such as house arrest, and the use of day/evening treatment centers may be fruitful methods to divert youth, especially Black youth, away from detention and possibly court referral. The Juvenile Court Precinct Liaison Program has the potential to address DMC in terms of preventing court referrals. The problem is that it is only implemented one day a week. The program needs to be evaluated to assess if it is having an impact on reducing secure detention and court referrals by the way of station in-house adjustment and if so needs to be expanded. The implementation of the Expeditor Team is also a promising approach for removing youth from the Court and into alternative placements and/or diversionary options. This effort should be evaluated to assess who (in terms of race), offense types, etc. are the recipients of such an effort. It is recommended that the Court implement, expand and evaluate diversionary efforts to reduce DMC, especially for minor offenses and domestic assaults. The Lack of Movement to Address Notice of and Actual Transfer to Adult Court as Pertains to DM. • It is acknowledged that the District Attorney’s Office is the main actor in filing a notice to transfer to adult court. In addition, the number of notices and waivers have declined. Still, in 2015, of the 153 youth receiving a notice of transfer, just 4 were White and 2 of the Whites were waived to adult court compared to 29 Blacks. DMC continues to exist in Notice of transfer and waiver to adult court. There is a need for a continued dialogue to work with the District Attorney to assess the overrepresentation of Black youth at these stages. It is recommended that a continued dialogue with the District Attorney occurs to assess the overrepresentation of Black youth involving notice to transfer and waiver to adult court. Overall, it is believed the Court must: (1) exercise greater ownership of the DMC issue(s),

Lack of Use of Diversion Programs.  The Lack of Movement to Address Notice of and Actual Transfer to Adult Court as Pertains to DMC The Compliance Report also centered on the improvement of community out-reach of the juvenile court. This included, but was not limited to, improving the Webpage and other electronic methods (i.e., twitter, face-book), reaching out to the community including the Consortium and working with other entities, persons and agencies in the community that deal with DMC issues. Building off of these points, recommendations were provided. The forthcoming section and discussion is framed around these recommendations and what the juvenile court has attempted to do to address DMC since the Seventh Equal Protection Monitor Report and in particular, the on-site visit by this monitor in late July of 2016. OVERALL SUMMARY AND IMPRESSIONS UP TO THIS POINT IN THE AGREEMENT  To address the lack of ownership: It was recommended that either Judge Xxxxxxx or someone from the Court Leadership Team and/or the Court DMC Coordinator take a stronger lead on the DMC issue and work collaboratively with Court personnel, the police, and the community to comply with the MoU as pertains to DMC. Juvenile Court Response: Xxx Xxxxxxx (Juvenile Court) along with the Equal Protection Strategic Planning Committee has assumed the lead on addressing this recommendation. Xx. Xxxxxxx has shown leadership by among other things organizing meetings, assigning personnel to committees, reaching out to entities in the community (e.g., police), setting up deadlines, etc. with the intent to take on areas of concern and the recommendations detailed in previous Compliance Reports and in particular, those cited in the Seventh Equal Protection Monitor Compliance Report. The revised/updated Strategic Planning Committee now is comprised of Mr. Xxxx Xxxxxx and Attorney Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx as advisors, and team/committee members Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, and Xxx Xxxxxxx. Recommendation: It is very apparent that the Juvenile Court has answered the call for taking an active leadership role. While this is good, it is important that this effort continue to strive for and achieve meaningful results.  To address the lack of the use of findings from the assessment studies to drive strategies, procedures, and policy: It was recommended that the collection of additional data should be tied to “drilling down” further to understand the results from the assessment stu...
