Abstract:

CGR assisted Monroe County Department of Human Services, the Monroe County Office of Probation-Community Corrections, Family Court, the education system, and other Monroe County stakeholders in an eight-month process to extend its efforts to reduce out of home placements to all youth involved in the Juvenile Justice system. This initiative included a review of the County’s existing PINS and JD diversion and placement processes; an examination of innovative approaches in other counties; and the development of a recommended strategy for redesigning County and community resources for youth involved in the PINS and JD systems and their families.
