Summary of Request:
In September 2020, Senate Bill 823 was passed, and transferred the responsibility for treatment and supervision of all youth committed to the California Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) to the counties. SB 823 also required the closure of DJJ by June 30, 2023. In response to this, the state has provided counties with various funds to support this new county responsibility. The first funding was provided by AB 178, the Juvenile Facilities Improvement Construction Funding. This was one-time only funds for counties to use to modernize facilities to include creating treatment, vocational, educational, recreational, visitation and family engagement space. Funding may also be used to enhance security infrastructure that enhances the creation or expansion of these spaces. The amount awarded to Mendocino County was $589,192. The second funding source is the Juvenile Justice Realignment Block Grant, which is issued as an annual allocation of a minimum of $250,000. Funds are for the purpose of providing county-based care, custody and supervision of youth who are realigned from DJJ or who would otherwise be eligible for commitment to the DJJ prior to its closure. Mendocino County advised the BSCC of our intent to operate a secure youth treatment facility (SYTF). This facility will serve youth ages 14-25 who are sentenced to the SYTF for an offense listed until Section 707(b) of the Welfare and Institutions Code. Mendocino County will likely not serve female offenders, sex offenders, arson, or severe mental health commitments; Mendocino County will enter contracts with other SYTFs for the treatment and housing of said population. Request appropriation transfer of funds to the Juvenile Youth budget unit for the Mendocino County Juvenile Hall in the amount of $1,115,247 for FY 2022-23 and approve expense reimbursement transfer to Juvenile Hall Budget Unit of $49,382.87 in FY 2022-23.
