RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Probation Officer, or designee, to execute a contract with the County of Sonoma, for the placement of wards in their facility at the rate of $300 per ward per day for the period October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Juvenile Justice Realignment Block Grant.

BACKGROUND:

Under the orders of Governor Gavin Newsom, California will phase out the California Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) beginning in 2021, transferring the responsibility for managing all youthful offenders from the State to local jurisdictions. DJJ was one of the few facilities in the State that offered Sex Offender Treatment to juveniles. Local jurisdictions have worked together to develop a regional model for Juvenile Sex Offender Treatment. Sonoma County will be one of the regional locations to provide this type of treatment program.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Probation will be unable to provide treatment to juvenile sex offenders.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This action supports three of the five community outcomes set forth in the Children’s Report Card. They are: Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for a Productive Adulthood; Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing; and Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life.
