# INTRODUCTION\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

During the last decade, San Diego County experienced an upswing in
juvenile crime and violence. Youth used and sold drugs. Youth armed
themselves with weapons. Juvenile homicide rates rose. Dire predictions
of a future filled with "super predators" frightened the public. Curfews
were reinstated. "Zero Tolerance" initiatives were enacted for drugs and
weapons on school campuses, and school police forces came into
existence. Legislative and political agendas within the state and county
responded to the community's cry for tighter controls on juveniles in
the interest of public safety. This was a shift from a child welfare
focus to one of juvenile accountability.

In early 1996, San Diego County Board of Supervisor Ron Roberts met with
Shay Bilchik, Administrator, United States Department of Justice, Office
of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), to discuss the
strengths and weaknesses of San Diego County in dealing with juvenile
delinquency. San Diego County was looking for new approaches, cutting
edge strategies and guidance from experts across the country to continue
and expand our efforts in promoting positive development of youth and
preventing juvenile delinquency. San Diego County was ready and able to
implement OJJDP's new Comprehensive Strategy for Serious, Violent, and
Chronic Juvenile Offenders. As a result, San Diego became one of the
first three sites in the nation to be provided with technical assistance
from OJJDP for the implementation of this strategy.

In May 1996, consultants hired by OJJDP from the National Council on
Crime and Delinquency (NCCD) and Developmental Research and Programs
(DRP) conducted a site visit to San Diego to begin the planning and
training processes for the Comprehensive Strategy. During this visit,
NCCD and DRP provided training outlining the goals and objectives of the
Comprehensive Strategy for more than 50 county and community policy
makers and key leaders. Following key leader buy-in, in December 1996,
the consultants conducted a three-day training for more than 200 line
staff and community members. During this training, individuals, agencies
and organizations made a full commitment to join and participate in,
both as initial planners and long-term members with, the San Diego
County Comprehensive Strategy Team. Two task forces (Graduated Sanctions
& Prevention) were created to continue the planning process for the
Comprehensive Strategy Plan over the next year. In April 1997, the
Comprehensive Strategy Planners altered their original structure and
combined the two task forces into one. It was important to note that San
Diego believed it was essential to have a united team, working side by
side, with clear communication as the planning process was moving
forward. San Diego's Comprehensive Strategy Team (CST) formed six work
groups to deal specifically with issues of resource development,
coordination, community engagement, advocacy, key leader buy-in and
information sharing. The technical assistance from the NCCD and DRP
culminated in a two-day workshop in October 1997, with more than 150
participants developing six promising approaches to fill the needs and
gaps identified in the continuum of services, from prevention through
graduated

sanctions.

# SHARED VISION\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

# San Diego\'s Comprehensive Strategy Plan was developed with input from diverse sources that contributed experience, professional expertise, national, state and local data and statistics, and many creative ideas and methodologies. Researchers, front-line staff, executives and community representatives worked together to craft a course of action. Our strategic plan proposes an integrated systems approach with an expectation of sustained and measured results. This plan was based upon the shared vision that all of San Diego\'s youth will develop into Caring, Literate, Educated And Responsible (CLEAR) community members. In order to achieve this vision, the Comprehensive Strategy Plan and Team must continue to represent a regional, coordinated effort and stay focused as it continues to work to strengthen communities and families to develop healthy, responsible youth through prevention, intervention and appropriate graduated sanctions.

# MISSION\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

The mission of the Comprehensive Strategy Team is to:

-   Strengthen families and communities by developing youth who are
    Caring, Literate, Educated And Responsible (CLEAR);

-   Support core institutions, such as schools, health care providers,
    government agencies, faith communities and community-based
    organizations in their role in developing youth;

-   Emphasize prevention as the most cost-effective approach to the
    reduction of delinquency;

-   Provide immediate and effective intervention with youth at their
    first sign of problems or inappropriate behavior;

-   Institute a broad range of care and rehabilitative services;

-   Reduce duplication of effort and fill service gaps; and

-   Help communities to define and establish effective collaboration.

# KEY TO SUCCESS\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Policy makers, key leaders, youth and family-serving organizations and
community members worked together from the beginning as a strong team in
a coordinated fashion to create a vision, mission, strategies and design
for the San Diego County Comprehensive Strategy Plan. It is vital to
include, from the onset, community residents and youth, in discussions
and planning. Their input, buy in and support are crucial to the
implementation and sustainability of the Comprehensive Strategy Plan. It
was the first time a collaboration of this magnitude occurred in the
county specific to juvenile justice. Leadership and support from San
Diego's policy and decision makers for the vision, process of
cross-system teamwork, and support of community grass roots efforts are
key to the success of the Comprehensive Strategy in San Diego County.

# 

# GUIDING PRINCIPLES\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

San Diego's Comprehensive Strategy Plan will serve as a blueprint for
community action and collaboration. It provides a broad spectrum of
recommendations that will help mobilize youth, adults, agencies and
organizations to strengthen youth, families and communities. The
strategy must make everyone aware of our shared vision. No single
individual, organization or agency can address all of the factors
contributing to juvenile delinquency and violence. Working together,
however, local leaders, representatives of public and private groups,
schools and individual community members, including youth, can bring
about systems change and strategies that work. Borrowing from OJJDP, the
San Diego County Comprehensive Strategy Plan begins with the same five
general principles:

> **Guiding Principle \# 1 - We must strengthen families.** We must
> recognize that the family has primary responsibility to instill values
> and provide guidance and support to children. When necessary, we must
> strengthen the family in support of these responsibilities. Where
> there is no functional family unit, we must establish a family
> surrogate and assist that entity to guide and nurture the child.
>
> **Guiding Principle \# 2 - We must support core social institutions**
> \-- schools, faith community and community organizations \-- in their
> roles of developing capable, mature and responsible youth.
>
> **Guiding Principle \# 3 - We must promote prevention** as the most
> cost-effective and humane approach to reducing juvenile delinquency.
> Communities must take the lead in designing and building cohesive
> prevention approaches that address known risk factors and target other
> youth at risk of delinquency.
>
> **Guiding Principle \# 4 - We must intervene immediately and
> effectively** when delinquent behavior occurs to successfully prevent
> offenders from committing progressively more serious and violent
> crimes and becoming chronic offenders.
>
> **Guiding Principle \# 5 - We must identify and sanction the small
> group** of serious, violent and chronic juvenile offenders.

**SAN DIEGO JUVENILE CRIME AT A GLANCE:\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

Comprehensive Strategy planners thoroughly reviewed risk data for the
County of San Diego. (**Attachment 1-Summary of Community Risk Profile
Data.)** It is critical during the planning process to identify trends,
shifts and significant increases and decreases in data related not just
to at-risk behavior, but also to specific juvenile crime and conviction
information. Specific statistics for the juvenile criminal justice
system follow:

> [Population Growth]{.underline}: From 1994 to 2003, the number of San
> Diego youth between the ages of 10 and 19 is projected to increase
> 26%.
>
> [Juvenile Arrest Rates:]{.underline} The juvenile arrest rate was
> noticeably higher in 1995 (74 per 1,000 juveniles) than the adult rate
> (54 per 1,000 adults).
>
> [Homicides for Youth]{.underline}: Comparing all age categories,
> homicide rates countywide for each year between 1991 and 1993 were the
> highest for youth ages 15-19 years.
>
> [Substance Abuse]{.underline}: From 1991 to 1995, juvenile arrests for
> drug and alcohol violations increased 52%. Of particular interest is a
> 95% increase in arrests in the dangerous drug category, which includes
> methamphetamine. Also, violations of marijuana laws increased over
> 200%. The Drug Use Forecasting (DUF) program conducts quarterly,
> confidential interviews with juveniles taken into Juvenile Hall after
> arrest. **Based on urinalysis tests, 65% of the juveniles contacted in
> December 1996, showed recent drug use.** This contrasts with 34%
> testing drug-positive in 1992; 44% positive in 1993; and 54% positive
> in 1995.
>
> [Weapons Use:]{.underline} A San Diego Association of Governments
> (SANDAG) study interviewed youth taken to Juvenile Hall. Of the 202
> male juveniles interviewed, 44% reported having owned a gun at some
> time, and the majority stated that it was easy to get a gun illegally.
> More than a quarter of youth said they had used a gun to commit a
> crime. Exposure to violence is related to gun possession. More than
> half of the youth interviewed in the DUF program reported having been
> shot at. More than one-third agreed that it is 'OK' to shoot someone
> who hurts you.
>
> [Gang Membership]{.underline}: A survey in October 1996, by the
> Jurisdictions Unified for Drug Gang Enforcement (J.U.D.G.E.) showed
> that in eight of the ten law enforcement jurisdictions covering the
> region, there are an estimated 126 gangs and 9,630 documented gang
> members.
>
> [Juvenile Hall Admissions]{.underline}: From 1992 to 1996, there was a
> 43% increase in admissions to Juvenile Hall (4278 versus 6,121). In
> 1996, 1,200 juveniles were admitted to Juvenile Hall for violent
> offenses, a 35% increase from 1992.
>
> [Remands to Adult Criminal Court]{.underline}: Remands to
> [adult]{.underline} criminal court (707s) increased from 39 in 1992 to
> 322 in 1996.

**DEFINITIONS OF A CONTINUUM OF PREVENTION AND GRADUATED
SANCTIONS\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

San Diego County Comprehensive Strategy Team recognized that having
common language, terminology and definitions was crucial for
organizations, agencies, community members and youth to effectively work
as a cohesive team in all aspects of the planning process. In order to
ensure the continuing participation of all team members, a commitment
must be made to clearly define a shared language and frequently used
terms that can be understood by those outside of the juvenile justice
field. San Diego County Comprehensive Strategy Team defined the
following key terms:

> [Continuum:]{.underline} A continuous spectrum of services and
> programs that can include prevention, intervention, supervision,
> incarceration and treatment.
>
> [Prevention:]{.underline} Programs and resources that address
> community, family and individual risk factors and enhance protective
> factors that will minimize the risk of delinquent behavior.
>
> [Intervention:]{.underline} Resources that provide immediate, swift
> responses within the community; often used for first-time, nonviolent
> offenders programs. Includes juvenile diversion and community
> intervention resources, Counsel-and-Close

programs, community restitution and community service, etc. May be
non-residential or residential.

> [Supervision]{.underline}: A spectrum of resources that are provided
> primarily by Probation (but not exclusively) ranging from informal
> supervision to intensive supervision.
>
> [Incarceration:]{.underline} Resources that are considered secure
> care, generally reserved for the most serious and violent offenders.
> These may include local resources such as Juvenile Hall and the Ranch
> Facilities, California Youth Authority (CYA) or jail. Incarceration
> may also be used as a means of providing swift and certain
> consequences for wards of the court that violate terms of their
> probation, such as Probation's Short Term Offender Program (STOP)
> combined with supervision following incarceration.
>
> [Treatment:]{.underline} Resources that address the specific needs and
> problems of both at-risk and delinquent youth and their families.
> Treatment includes substance abuse counseling and rehabilitation,
> mental health, vocational training, education, parent training and
> support and mentoring. Treatment can be appropriate at all stages of
> the continuum.

**ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING RESOURCES IN THE**

**REGION\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

During the planning of the San Diego County Local Action Plan (SB1760),
a Juvenile Justice Coordinating Council was convened. This council was
appointed by the San Diego County Board of Supervisors and is required
by law. It is chaired by the Chief Probation Officer and appointees
include representatives of the Board of Supervisors, Chief
Administrative Officer, District Attorney, Public Defender, Sheriff, San
Diego Police Department, Education, Chair of the Juvenile Justice
Commission, Executive Directors of Community Agencies, Alcohol and other
Drug Service Providers, Mental Health, Social Service, Juvenile Court
and community-at-large members. This Council is the support and
implementation body of the San Diego County Comprehensive Plan. The
Council and the Comprehensive Strategy Team began with the premise that
delinquency and violence have multiple causes, with many occurring
simultaneously. Effective resolution and treatment requires that a broad
spectrum of locally based resources be available to meet multiple needs.
They also recognized that San Diego County has gained national
recognition as a leader in developing collaborative, integrated service
delivery models for addressing the multiple needs of at-risk children
and their families. The Council extensively inventoried existing
resources throughout San Diego County for the research and development
of the San Diego Local Action Plan (SB1760). The Comprehensive Strategy
Team, holding true to ending duplication and redundancy, used this
detailed information when addressing needs and gaps in the County.
**(Attachment 2-Inventory of Existing Resources.)**

# 

# IDENTIFIED NEEDS AND GAPS IN THE CONTINUUM\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

The Comprehensive Strategy planners used a structured decision-making
approach to develop consensus on those service needs and gaps deemed
most critical to the Comprehensive Strategy implementation. These
critical needs and gaps were categorized into one of the following
areas:

**Program** -- Needs and gaps identified in this category represent
either specific program services such as after-school programs for
middle school age youth for prevention, as well as services that might
be considered necessary components of a multi-systemic or comprehensive
approach (such as providing substance abuse or vocational programming at
a day treatment program);

**Geographic** - Certain areas of the County lack specific resources
that are available to serve residents in other communities.
Comprehensive Strategy planners were asked to identify program and
service needs and gaps unique to various geographic areas of the County;

**Concrete Support Services** - In addition to primary program and
service needs and gaps, there is recognition that additional support
services must be available for primary treatment to be effective (such
as childcare, transportation and housing). Comprehensive Strategy
planners were asked to identify concrete support services that they
believe are critical in supporting a comprehensive continuum of service;
and

**Infrastructure** - In order for a system-wide, continuum-based
approach to be effective, there are policy, process and procedural
elements that must be in place, such as accountability/evaluation tools
and communication mechanisms. Comprehensive Strategy Planners were asked
to identify infrastructure needs critical to successful implementation
of the Comprehensive Strategy Plan.

Using several comprehensive assessments of existing resources, from
prevention through graduated sanctions and aftercare, the Comprehensive
Strategy planners identified needs and gaps in the continuum, which are
listed in the following tables:

**TABle 1 - Results of Survey To Identify Critical [Program Needs and
Gaps]{.underline} in the San Diego Region**

**[Top Five Need and Gap Areas]{.underline}**: (prioritized by number of
times appearing in top 5):

-   Substance abuse treatment for youth and families at all steps of the
    continuum (in- and outpatient);

-   After-school programs for middle school age youth and latency age
    programs, both on and off school campuses;

-   Parent education, training, support and home visitation;

-   Vocational/technical training, especially in skilled trades; and

-   Specific programs for girls.

**[Additional High Priority Program Needs and Gaps]{.underline}:**

-   Services for abused adolescents, runaway and homeless youth;

-   Aftercare reintegration and step-down programs with intensive family
    work, for all youth, including those from CYA;

-   Community policing;

-   Halfway houses for clean and sober youth targeted to specific ethnic
    groups;

-   Community recreation;

-   Day treatment programs;

-   Emancipation/independent living skills;

**RECOMMENDATIONS FOR AN EFFECTIVE CONTINUUM OF SERVICES, FROM
PREVENTION THROUGH GRADUATED
SANCTIONS\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

Historically, government has responded to youth problems by providing
services to address symptoms. This often results in an inefficient use
of scarce resources. Children labeled as delinquent traditionally enter
the correctional system, which has been unable to address underlying
family issues and other problems. Youth intervention agencies identify
some children as abused or neglected, remove them from their homes, and
place them in foster care, but agencies fail or are unable to provide
family support or preventive mental health services. Children with acute
mental health needs are placed in secure psychiatric settings with
little opportunity for treatment in community-based, family-oriented
mental health programs.

Fragmentation does not serve anyone effectively \-- youth, families,
communities or systems. The system is expensive and often fails to solve
youths' problems. Comprehensive, integrated and targeted collaborative
efforts can more effectively assess the needs of at-risk youth,
implement promising strategies and maximize community resources.

Communities and families must have the primary role in preventing
juvenile delinquency. All community members \-- business leaders, media
representatives, teachers, parents and grandparents, youth, policy
makers, faith leaders, elected officials and law enforcement \-- are
responsible for ensuring the health and well-being of children. When all
members of the community work together to achieve common goals, everyone
benefits from the strength of the working partnership.

The following recommendations are presented to fill identified needs and
gaps in the continuum of services. These recommendations are also
intended to help San Diego communities and neighborhoods with community
development and mobilization that will support them in identifying and
prioritizing problems, creating opportunities and implementing
solutions, as well as strengthen and enhance existing efforts focused on
prevention.

**[Recommendation #1 - Community Mobilization]{.underline}:** Increase
the number of community members (individuals and families, schools,
businesses, organizations and service providers) engaged to mobilize and
promote crime-free, healthy communities that are safe places for
children to learn and grow.

**[Recommendation #2 - Community Risk and Resource
Assessments]{.underline}:** Adopt instruments to assess and identify
local community needs, resources and priorities for development of
community-based prevention programs that target at-risk youth and
juvenile offenders.

**[Recommendation \# 3 - Substance Abuse Efforts]{.underline}:** Support
the recommendations of San Diego's 1996 Substance Abuse Summit, 1996
Methamphetamine Strike Force and the San Diego County Juvenile Forensics
Services on integrated approaches for the prevention of youth alcohol
and substance abuse.

**[Recommendation #4 - Community Norms]{.underline}:** Support
development and adoption of community laws and norms that guard against
substance abuse, weapon possession and all aspects of juvenile
delinquency, and encourage positive alternatives.

**[Recommendation #5 - Risk and Treatment Needs
Instruments:]{.underline}** Adopt shared, structured decision-making
instruments for assessing individual at risk youth and their families.
Promote and secure consensus on use of these instruments from all
involved public and private agencies.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPLEMENTATION, MANAGEMENT AND EVALUATION

('INFRASTRUCTURE')\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

San Diego is fortunate to have broad support for our comprehensive
planning efforts from many elected officials and other juvenile justice
policymakers, community leaders, public and private program
administrators, schools, law enforcement and community programs and
groups. However, given the large size of our region, both geographic and
population (4,200 square miles, 18 incorporated cities and more
communities within these cities and unincorporated areas) and the ethnic
and cultural diversity of our communities, we must continue to garner
regional community support and broad involvement - especially from youth
and families.

Based upon on the OJJDP Guide description of key activities necessary
for successful implementation of a comprehensive plan to reduce juvenile
crime and delinquency, San Diego's Comprehensive Strategy planners
developed the following recommendations to address critical
infrastructure needs.

**[Recommendation #6 - Systemwide, Balanced Approach to
Funding]{.underline}:** Promote a balanced approach to funding
prevention, early intervention and graduated sanctions programs that
consider both safety needs of the community and treatment needs of
at-risk and juvenile offenders, and their families.

**[Recommendation #7 - Public Outreach Strategy]{.underline}:** Develop
a comprehensive, countywide public outreach strategy that continuously
engages the public and policy makers in the prevention and the reduction
of juvenile crime and in the promotion of healthy and crime-free
lifestyles.

**[Recommendation #8 - Cross-Systems Training]{.underline}:** Provide
cross-systems training between public and private agency providers to
acquire common language and methodologies and promote collaborative
efforts.

**[Recommendation #9 - Interagency Agreements]{.underline}:** Develop
formal interagency agreements (e.g. Memorandums of Understanding or
Agreement) that explicitly state the relationships, roles,
responsibilities and expected outcomes for all parties in collaborative
efforts to reduce juvenile crime and delinquency, and promote positive
development of youth.

**[Recommendation #10 - Case Management and Process
Control]{.underline}:** Develop a case management system that follows
each youth through the various stages of the continuum of care.
Designate the Chief Probation Officer with responsibility and resources
needed to coordinate an interagency, centralized intake process, case
management and program control (including assessment, monitoring and
feedback) for identified at-risk and juvenile offenders.

**[Recommendation #11 - Management Information System]{.underline}:**
Build on existing management information system (MIS) efforts to
facilitate relevant communication and data sharing by all criminal
justice agencies and collaborating entities (public and private)
consistent with appropriate protection of privacy rights.

**[Recommendation #12 - Evaluation]{.underline}:** Provide for locally
relevant ongoing evaluation of programs, agencies and strategies to
ensure effectiveness and to allocate resources based upon need and
documented effectiveness.

### IMPLEMENTING THE COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Keeping with the theme of ending duplication and redundancy, the
Juvenile Justice Coordinating Council from SB 1760 was asked to oversee
the implementation of the Comprehensive Strategy Plan. This protected
San Diego from forming yet another governing body and creating a larger
bureaucracy. As the Comprehensive Strategy Team was moving forward in
its planning, it became evident that a full-time coordinator was needed.
San Diego learned that coordinating the efforts of public, private,
youth and family serving entities throughout the region under the
umbrella of the Comprehensive Strategy is a monumental task. Therefore,
a full-time Coordinator position was established in April 1998. One of
the many duties of the Comprehensive Strategy Coordinator is to
facilitate and staff the six work groups, which deal specifically with
issues revealed during planning and implementation phases.
Representatives from the work groups are the conduits for information
sharing between the Juvenile Justice Coordinating Council and the work
group members. **(Please see Attachment 6 for a brief description of the
work groups, their missions and strategies.)**

Throughout the planning process "Comprehensive Strategy Themes" clearly
emerged. The Comprehensive Strategy Team concluded that these themes
must be the foundation upon which services and programs are designed and
delivered. The successful implementation of the Comprehensive Strategy
must ensure that the spirit of these themes is incorporated not just in
services and programs, but also in agencies, organizations and
institutions that work with youth and their families.

**COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY
THEMES\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

-   **Provide a full continuum of care:**

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Include youth family members, and other significant community**
    **members** in program design, development and implementation.

-   **Be family-focused,** strengthen families and provide
    intergenerational family support services, resources and parenting
    skills.

-   **Promote a community delinquency prevention model** as the most
    cost-effective and humane approach, assuring access to
    community-based resources; and

-   **Provide graduated sanctions** with early identification,
    diversion, intervention and ongoing support as follows:

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Immediate intervention for first-time, nonviolent offenders;

-   Intermediate sanctions for more serious offenders;

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Secure care programs for most violent offenders; and

-   Aftercare programs involving family and community to assist youth
    with reintegrating into the community following out-of-home
    placement.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Be holistic (comprehensive or multi-systemic) and
    multi-disciplinary**, dealing simultaneously with many aspects of
    the youth's life. Address the youth's family and relationships
    dealing with intimacy, community, peers, school and work.

-   **Utilize a case manager and case management approach** that begins
    at intake and follows the youth through various program phases until
    successful completion. This involves the development of individual
    service plans that are updated on a consistent and goal-driven
    basis.

-   **Build upon youth and family strengths** rather than focusing on
    their weaknesses. We need to shift the primary emphasis from risks
    to resiliency.

-   **Hold families accountable for their children** and systems
    accountable to families**.**

-   **Be gender-specific and culturally and linguistically
    appropriate.** Programs must reach and be accepted by diverse
    racial, cultural and socioeconomic groups in the community.

-   **Be intensive,** have multiple contacts with at-risk youth by staff
    who have manageable caseloads that allow for individualized
    attention and follow through.

-   **Offer comprehensive alcohol and other drug treatment, recovery and
    aftercare** services in all phases of the continuum, including
    prevention.

-   **Have a solid focus on education, job readiness, skills training
    and employment** through combined intensive support services.

-   **Utilize comprehensive community risk and resource models** that
    prioritize target areas.

-   **Adopt common definitions, referral and response protocols, and
    instruments** for assessing risks to the community and treatment
    needs of individual juvenile offenders that may be used by all
    agencies that participate in the juvenile justice system (including
    law enforcement, education and community-based organizations).

-   **Develop information systems** that enable data sharing for client
    case management, tracking, budgeting, monitoring and evaluation, and
    that are accessible by criminal justice agencies and collaborating
    entities (while maintaining legally mandated confidentiality).

-   **Provide ongoing evaluation** based upon agreed assessment and
    response mechanisms to all system participants for informed decision
    making.

-   **Adopt a system-wide resource allocation strategy,** rather than
    funding on a program-by-program basis. Implement service
    consolidation and redesign where appropriate.

APPROACHES\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

Using the twelve reccomendations and the Comprehensive Strategy Themes
the Comprehensive Strategy Team, through work facilitated by NCCD and
DRP, designed six "Promising Approaches". These Approaches are the first
step in beginning to fill identified needs and gaps in the continuum.
The Approaches include desired outcomes, indicators, participant
results, program results and an implementation plan. Each Approach gives
specific measurable results for all focus areas. The six Approaches are:
Vocational Training/School to Career, Taking It to the Local Level,
Parent Training and In Home Support, After-school Programs, Substance
Abuse and Girls Programs.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND BRANCHING IMPACTS:\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Agencies, organizations and individuals have not waited for the
completion of the Comprehensive Strategy planning process to begin to
fill needs and gaps. Specific programs and strategies have been
developed, funded and implemented as our work identifying needs
continues. These programs and strategies are consistent with the afore
mentioned recommendations, Comprehensive Strategy Themes and Promising
Approaches. The programs and strategies include:

-   **CRITICAL HOURS PROGRAM:** The County Board of Supervisors, through
    the Children's Investment Trust Fund, awarded \$1.2 million in FY
    '97-98 and \$1.5 million in FY '98-99 for after-school programs for
    middle school age youth in San Diego County. The San Diego County
    Critical Hours Program seeks to foster collaborative efforts among
    public, private and non-profit organizations that have in the past
    been fragmented and isolated in their efforts to serve children,
    youth and families. Critical Hours seeks to address youth violence,
    health and social issues that affect youth (e.g. crime, gang
    involvement, teen pregnancy, substance abuse and peer group
    pressure) and offer an alternative support system. With required
    program components, including health, education, recreation and
    interpersonal skills/self-esteem development, Critical Hours
    programs encourage a partnering of community organizations (i.e.
    education + recreation + social services + art organizations) to
    provide high quality programming at each site. Twenty-seven programs
    were started in September 1997, and have served more than 12,000
    middle school age youth. The County will expand to 38 sites in
    1998-99. There are currently 18 lead agencies with 150 collaborative
    partners.

-   **COMMUNITY CHALLENGE GRANTS:** The California Office of Community
    Challenge Grants and the San Diego County Health and Human Services
    Agency, awarded eight \$500,000 Teen Pregnancy Prevention grants.
    The grants were awarded to San Diego Youth and Community Services,
    Escondido Youth Encounter, University of California, San Diego,
    Neighborhood House, YMCA-Youth and Family Services, North Park
    Family Health Clinic, Vista Community Clinic and San Dieguito Union
    School District. These grants are intended to prevent teenage
    pregnancy and to reduce the number of absent fathers. Emphasis is
    placed on communities with greatest need. Programs include mentoring
    for male youth, male involvement in family programs, youth talk
    line, human sexuality for males/females, reproductive health
    education for males/females, development of healthy relationship
    skills, improving communication skills and the development of goals
    for a more enriched life.

-   **BREAKING CYCLES:** Breaking Cycles is a \$6.9 million SB 1760
    State grant awarded to the San Diego County Probation Department.
    This three-year program (beginning July 1997) funds delinquency
    prevention through a range of graduated sanctions to prevent
    initiation into a lifestyle of gangs, drugs, violence and crime. The
    graduated sanctions component provides for multidisciplinary
    assessment of all adjudicated youth removed from, or at risk of
    removal from, the home; expands day treatment to North County
    region; and provides substance abuse treatment for all families
    based upon assessed need. The prevention component establishes
    strength-based family assessment at Community Assessment Teams to
    reduce the number of youth entering the justice system by referring
    the youth and their families to the appropriate services.

-   **AT-RISK YOUTH EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM:** Senator Alpert's SB
    1050 secured a \$2 million, one-year grant (in addition to SB 1760)
    that builds upon the community assessment center framework that was
    defined in the Breaking Cycles grant. SB 1050 provides funding for
    direct wraparound services and linkages with community resources
    through family-focused, neighborhood based community assessment
    teams and centers. SB 1050 was awarded to the San Diego County
    Probation Department, which sub-contracted with local community
    based agencies to provide direct prevention and intervention
    services to youth and their families.

-   **JUVENILE REPEAT OFFENDER PREVENTION PROGRAM (Project 8%):**
    California State funding of \$400,000 per year to Project 8% in San
    Diego County provides wraparound services to youth at risk of being
    chronic, serious violent offenders; subsequent legislation doubled
    the funding and extended the program for another two years (until
    June 2000). This funding was awarded to the San Diego County
    Probation Department and is a collaborative program between the
    Departments of Probation and the Health and Human Services Agency.
    This program has a multi-disciplinary team with a Probation Officer,
    Social Worker, Psychologist and Substance Abuse Counselor. It is
    designed to provide integrated services to families of at--risk
    youth to minimize delinquency and costs of processing youth through
    the juvenile justice system. It also provides prevention services to
    siblings at risk of entering the delinquency system and preservation
    services to their families.

-   **ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, and OTHER DRUGS (ATOD) PREVENTION FRAMEWORK:**
    This framework re-engineers the San Diego County Health and Human
    Services Agency ATOD prevention services to regional based, youth-
    focused and collaboration-driven programs. This re-engineering is
    funded by the \$22 million General Fund, which includes Federal
    Substance Abuse Prevention Treatment Block Grant, State General
    Funds, and approximately eighteen other funding sources for 180
    program components.

-   **SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT:** The San Diego County Board of
    Supervisors has taken actions over the past 18 months to increase
    adolescent alcohol and drug treatment and intervention funding by
    nearly \$2.8 million. This increases the number of youth served from
    600 to 3,000 on an annual basis and has reduced wait time for
    services from 12 weeks to 2 weeks or less. It has also increased
    residential treatment beds to 750, and increased the number of
    treatment service providers. Funding is from the San Diego County
    Health and Human Services Agency General Fund, which includes
    Federal Substance Abuse Prevention Treatment Block Grant and State
    General Funds.

-   **SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT on DEMAND, for YOUTH:** Twenty-two
    million dollars from the San Diego County Health and Human Services
    Agency General Fund was utilized to establish five additional
    regional Teen Recovery Centers in South Bay, San Marcos, Encinitas,
    Lakeside and Mid-City. Mental Health Systems, Phoenix House and San
    Diego Youth and Community Services are the agencies funded. These
    programs also expanded residential capacity for adolescents,
    including seventeen new detoxification beds. Services include
    one-to-one counseling, group counseling, family counseling, social
    recreation activities, NA/AA programs, and offer coping/life skills
    for success on the outside world.

-   **JUVENILE DEPENDENCY COURT RECOVERY PROJECT:** The partnership
    between the San Diego County Chief Administrator's Office Dependency
    Court Tiger Team and the Superior Court introduced a new
    intervention for the Dependency Court process in mid-April 1998.
    Targeted toward parents whose neglect or abuse cases involve an
    alcohol and/or drug problem, a new substance abuse case management
    function has been implemented. This new process will provide
    assessment of substance abuse problems, prompt referral and
    assistance in entering alcohol and drug treatment programs, alcohol
    and drug testing and a comprehensive reporting system. This
    reporting system will report to the Dependency Court and the
    Children's Services Bureau the progress of parents in the program
    and their compliance to the Court order of participation.

-   **GENDER-SPECIFIC SERVICES** **for GIRLS:** The San Diego YMCA,
    Youth and Family Services was recently awarded a \$100,000 one-year
    grant from the Office of Criminal Justice Planning to provide
    gender-specific services for San Diego girls, with highest priority
    given to girls on probation. These services include but are not
    limited to addressing physical and emotional abuse, relationship
    issues, sexuality and reproductive issues, individual and family
    counseling, independent living skills, vocational training and
    parenting skills. Additionally, the National Council on Crime &
    Delinquency was awarded a California Wellness Foundation Grant to
    study gender-specific programs for girls in San Diego County.

-   **SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTH and HUMAN SERVICES HOME VISITING:** The
    San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency, Family Support
    Home Visiting Partnership (FSHVP) works to ensure that all children
    in San Diego County are: born healthy; begin school eager and ready
    to learn; and remain healthy, safe and secure. The FSHVP mission is
    to ensure all San Diego families have access to confidential and
    voluntary home visitation and family support services that are
    individualized, culturally and linguistically appropriate,
    cost-effective and of the highest quality. In March 1998, the San
    Diego County Health and Human Services Agency implemented the
    Cal-SAHF "best practices" home-visiting program, which is funded by
    a \$954,000 three-year grant from the Office of Child Abuse
    Prevention. It was awarded to the San Diego County Health and Human
    Services Agency and contracted to the Escondido Youth Encounter
    (EYE) Counseling and Crisis Services. The EYE is delivering home
    visiting services to 125 families in the North Coastal region of the
    County. The target population is families with drug-exposed infants,
    age birth to three months, who are at-risk for child abuse and
    neglect.

-   **JOB TRAINING for FOSTER, GANG and HIGH RISK YOUTH:** The San Diego
    Work Force Partnership has allotted more than \$1 million in funding
    to assist high-risk youth with job training skills and job
    placement.

-   **SCHOOL-TO-CAREER:** The majority of youth on probation are in need
    of services to enable them to transition to independent living and
    adulthood. Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) funding has
    been earmarked for a School-to-Career Program to address this
    critical service gap identified by the Juvenile Justice Coordinating
    Council. Between 800 to 1000 wards of the Court annually are
    projected to receive services at an estimated cost of \$600 to \$750
    per program participant. The Probation Department will provide
    program coordination and contract monitoring services for twenty
    Vocational Counselors and Job Placement Counselors providing the
    vocational assessment and employment placement services.

-   **SCHOOL, PROBATION and JUVENILE COURT COOPERATION:** In San Diego
    County, schools and probation officers have worked hard to keep
    children in school. In July 1997, the District Attorney's Office
    increased its efforts to help combat truancy, a leading indicator of
    juvenile delinquency. A truancy database and the addition of a
    part-time assistant dedicated solely to School Attendance Review
    Board (SARB) cases have facilitated the effectiveness of the
    teamwork between SARB members, prosecutors and court staff. The
    Juvenile Court also has contributed to the efforts, by assigning one
    judge to hear truancy matters on a weekly basis.

-   **SAN DIEGO COUNTY REPORT CARD:** The San Diego County Health and
    Human Services Agency and San Diego Children's Hospital Center for
    Child Health Outcomes have jointly created the components of a
    child/family health and well-being report card. The Report Card is
    comprised of scientifically based and/or consensus-derived measures
    that together form a population-based, data-driven monitoring
    system. The primary goal of this system is to track and trend
    identified child and family health and well-being indicators during
    a time of sweeping changes in both public policies and the systems
    servicing this population. A one-time grant of \$88,000 was awarded
    to Children's Hospital from the Alliance Health Care Foundation.
    (**Please see Attachment 4 for a list of Indicators used in the
    Report Card).**

-   **A SHARED, STRUCTURED DECISION-MAKING PROCESS: San Diego's Regional
    Risk & Resiliency Checkup:** The Checkup is a research-based
    classification device for engaging the community in
    neighborhood-based services to strengthen families. It is
    representative of the cutting-edge efforts in prevention and early
    intervention being field tested in San Diego. The Checkup uses the
    concept of a blood pressure check. A reading outside the normal
    range alerts a person to possible health problems and allows
    families to take steps to avoid harm. In many instances, that
    information is enough to motivate change. The Checkup provides a
    portrait of a family's risk and resiliency compared to what is
    typical for San Diego families. It will also provide information and
    access to community resources for at-risk families. A \$15,000 award
    was granted to the Justice System's Assessment and Training (Brian
    Mattson and Brad Bogue) from the National Institute of Corrections
    and the County of San Diego Probation Department. (**Please see
    Attachment 5 for the tool.)**

# SUMMARY\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

As we move into the 21^st^ century, San Diego County is dramatically
re-engineering local government. The public sector is being expected to
compete with the private sector and produce a quality, cost effective
product. Under the direction of the San Diego County Board of
Supervisors, business and strategic plans are being developed for each
county department, functions and tasks are being merged, and outstanding
risk management and customer service is being rewarded. As part of this
process, local government agencies serving youth are being redesigned
for maximum efficiency and improved effectiveness.

The bottom line is that approaches to serving the needs of youth and
families in our region are rapidly evolving. Many changes are
occurring - both in the way we think about programs and services and the
methods used to deliver them. However, certain realities and priorities
are clear and command consensus. Policy makers, legislators and the
community support strengthening the prevention network and intervening
effectively at the first "red flag" or "trigger" event that puts a child
at risk of entering the juvenile justice system.

While San Diego County citizens support the incarceration of juveniles
committing violent, serious crimes, they overwhelmingly favor providing
prevention services to at-risk children and swift intervention for youth
experiencing problems. San Diego County citizens expect the juvenile
justice system to provide juvenile accountability, as well as victim and
community restoration. Community solutions to community problems are
preferred.

Some studies have shown that 90 percent of youth that have been exposed
to prevention programs believe they made a positive difference in their
lives. Californians and San Diegans have demonstrated that prevention
programs are a good investment of their tax dollars.

This favorable attitude toward aggressive prevention and intervention
strategies is particularly evident in the area of substance abuse
treatment. San Diego County views substance abuse treatment as an
investment that will reduce crime and save tax dollars that would
otherwise be spent on prisons.

As San Diego County celebrates our accomplishments thus far, we also
recognize the ongoing effort required to reach full implementation of
the Comprehensive Strategy Plan. From policy makers to Neighborhood
Watch groups, from agency diversion counselors to youth in leadership
development programs, everyone must collaboratively engage in a
sustained, regionwide commitment to actualize the CLEAR vision. In order
to maintain the direction over the long term, we must continue our
fiscal and philosophical commitment to supporting the Comprehensive
Strategy Plan. As we build upon existing resources, address needs and
gaps, strengthen youth and families, and integrate a full continuum of
care, we are enhancing the quality of life for all San Diegans. The
Comprehensive Strategy Plan serves as a blueprint and foundation for San
Diego County as we strengthen and expand services and programs for youth
and their families.

\* *Communities shown in italics with one \* have AB 1741 Youth Pilot
Programs located within their boundaries.*

*\*\*Communities shown in italics with two \*\* have Title V Delinquency
Prevention Programs within their boundaries; in addition to the two
listed above, the Linda Vista community (part of San Diego) is also a
Title V community.*

**\*\*\*"Community", in this table, is defined by available subregional,
law enforcement jurisdiction, and school district data; these
definitions are restrictive, and there are many more communities in the
San Diego region than those represented in the chart above. For example,
San Diego in the above table represents both the San Diego Unified
School District, as well as the large area served by the San Diego
Police Department, and numerous zip codes within the region. Many of the
AB 1741 and Title V communities do not necessarily serve the entire
subregional or law enforcement jurisdictional boundaries being reported
on by this data.**

**GENDER SPECIFIC PROGRAMMING**

**What is it?**

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP)
defines gender-specific services as those that are designed to meet the
unique needs of female offenders; that value the female perspective;
that celebrate and honor the female experience; that respect and take
into account female development; that empower girls and young women to
reach their full human potential; and that work to change established
attitudes that prevent or discourage girls and young women from reaching
their potential.

# Guiding Principles

-   **Equality does not mean sameness**; equality must be defined in
    terms of providing opportunities that are relevant to each gender,
    not simply allowing women access to services traditionally reserved
    for men. Needed services may be different.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Treatment based on theory of female development;** gender-specific
    programs are not simply "female only" programs that were originally
    designed for males, but rather programs that acknowledge and address
    the unique needs and issues related to women's/girls' psychological
    development.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   **Female role models:** girls and women can benefit from positive
    female role models and mentors who exemplify survival and growth.
    Staff composition in terms of gender, race/ethnicity and sexual
    orientation is critical.

# Why is it necessary?

-   Research on adolescent female development suggests that girls
    develop self-esteem differently, learn differently, value different
    things, process information differently and respond differently to
    people and situations than boys.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Female identity is developed in relationship to others whereas boys
    develop their identity in relation to the world. Connectedness to
    relationships is a critical issue in the foundation of female
    identity and is a key rehabilitation treatment issue.

-   Social theories of crime were developed to explain criminality in
    men. Individual and pathological theories were used to explain
    female criminality.

-   Conformity to sex stereotypes and traditional gender roles is
    expected. Females who deviate and behave in "Adventurous, Aggressive
    or Outspoken" manners are viewed as "at-risk" or "in trouble". Men
    who exhibit similar behaviors are viewed as "normal".

-   Criminal justice programs based on the male experience often neglect
    unique female needs. Effective female treatment will result from a
    theoretical approach that is gender sensitive.

-   Girls confront problems that tend to be gender unique such as sexual
    abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, adolescent pregnancy and
    single parenthood.
