| Statewide Interest: |
| This project continues to support a statewide need as reflected in the Governor's goals of increasing the percent of youth who remain crime free while in secure detention and ensure zero escape as well as protecting the state's most vulnerable by providing treatment and care to those suffering from mental disorders. It is also consistent with the Governor's recommendations for mental health services for juveniles in residential commitment programs as presented in the 2003-2004 budget. Specifically, the Project will continue to provide an overlay of mental health, psychiatric and crisis assessments in the Orange Detention Facility to youth awaiting court processing or awaiting placement in juvenile justice residential commitment facilities and will reduce escapes and new crimes by juvenile detainees. Measurable outcomes are established and have been met. |
