CBIRS Request 1624
 
Community Budget Issue Requests - Tracking Id #1624
Contracted Conditional Release Supervision
 
Requester: Bill Westel Organization: Lee County Juvenile Justice Council/Juvenile Sanctions Team
 
Project Title: Contracted Conditional Release Supervision Date Submitted 1/12/2006 5:08:14 PM
 
Sponsors: Aronberg
 
Statewide Interest:
Lee County commits approximately 300 delinquent youth per year to residential commitment facilities. These youth eventually return to the community. Without adequate supervision and linkage to community resources (education, jobs, mental health, substance abuse treatment), these youth are at high risk for returning to commitment programs. Reductions in recidivism provide additional benefits in terms of reducing law enforcement involvement, court involvement, cost to victims and future involvement in the adult criminal justice system.
