COMPREHENSIVE MULTI-AGENCY JUVENILE JUSTICE PLAN/JUVENILE JUSTICE REALIGNMENT PLAN

This year the Comprehensive Multi-Agency Juvenile Justice Plan (CMJJP) and Juvenile Justice Realignment Plan (JJRP) were combined into one document to provide an understanding of the totality of prevention, diversion, and intervention services for justice-involved youth and their families throughout the community. The CMJJP, required by the Juvenile Justice Crime Prevention Act (JJCPA), assesses local resources available for at-risk youth, prioritizes areas facing significant public safety risks from youth crime, and provides a range of responses to juvenile delinquency. Required by Senate Bill (SB) 823, the JJRP realigns the responsibility for the care, custody, and supervision of local justice-involved youth to the counties in which they reside in place of the previously utilized Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) The JJRP describes how funds will be used to support realigned youth in areas such as mental health, family engagement, and reentry. The FY 2023-2024 CMJJP can be viewed here: https://content.civicplus.com/api/assets/2519e196-b4a9-4436-a371304ac9804437?cache=1800
