Identified Issues &Recommendations46

Juvenile Offenders & Mental Health Needs JCC Commitments – FY 2012‒ 60% of males and 80% of females committed to DJJ showedsignificant symptoms of a mental health disorder.‒63% of males and 58% of females had a history of psychotropicmedication use prior to their commitment.‒47% of males and 77% of females had a history of outpatient servicesor group home placement, psychiatric inpatient placement,residential treatment, therapeutic foster placement, or inpatientsubstance abuse rehabilitation placement.Juveniles in Detention – FY 2012‒45% of juveniles in detention have at least one mental healthdisorder and almost 25% are on psychotropic medication.Sources: Virginia Department of Juvenile Justice, 2013 and Virginia Council on Juvenile Detention, 2012.47

Mental Health Screening & Assessment Screening at Intake‒In 2008, DJJ adopted the Youth Assessment ScreeningInstrument (YASI).‒The YASI is a validated tool that assesses risk, needs, andprotective factors to help develop case plans for juveniles.‒Mental health and substance use are two domains included onthe YASI.‒The YASI includes a brief “pre-screening” version that generatesa risk score. This score assists with early decision-makingregarding the appropriateness for diversion or detention.48

Mental Health Screening & Assessment(cont). Screening at Detention‒Virginia utilizes the Massachusetts Youth Screening Inventory, secondedition (MAYSI-2) for youth held in detention.oooo‒Designed to identify potential mental health & substance use needs ofjuvenilesValidated mental health screening toolActs as early warning for emergenciesAssists in deciding need for a more detailed and individualizedassessmentThe MAYSI-2 is effective in the initial identification of juveniles withmental health treatment needs and/or those at risk for homicidal orsuicidal behavior in order to determine if a temporary detentionorder (TDO) should be filed.49

Social History Report A social history is a report which may be ordered by the court following theadjudication of a juvenile. Pursuant to DJJ regulations, a social history report must be prepared when:‒ ordered by the court;‒ for each juvenile placed on probation supervision with the unit;‒ for each juvenile committed to DJJ;‒ for each juvenile placed in a post-dispositional detention program for morethan 30 days (pursuant to §16.1-284.1); or‒ upon written request from another unit, when accompanied by a courtorder.* When a juvenile is committed to DJJ, a social history report must be completedwithin fifteen days (pursuant to §16.1-278.7). For those reports completed prior to disposition, the information contained in thesocial history is used at the dispositional hearing to assist the judge in determiningappropriate services and sanctions.*6VAC35-150-33650

Social History Report (cont.) Judges report social histories as being very helpful and beneficial whenmaking a dispositional decision. They want, and need, as muchinformation as possible to make appropriate dispositional decisions. Despite the noted value of a completed social history, judges may notalways have a completed social history prior to disposition. In FY 2012, 3,067 social histories were completed before disposition and2,542 were completed post-disposition.* Reasons for this may include:––––plea agreements;judges dispose of cases incrementally and have entered initial orders;delay in getting records from other jurisdictions; andadjudication and disposition occurring on the same day, narrowingconsiderably the window in which a social history can be completed.*This may be after any court disposition including status offenses.51

Social History Report (cont.) Court Service Units (CSUs) strive to complete social histories prior todisposition. An informal survey of 22 CSUs conducted by DJJ found that in 14 of those CSUs,the court does not commit a juvenile without a social history.‒In Chesapeake, Culpeper, and Winchester, there is no disposition without asocial history; similarly in Culpeper, there is no probation without a socialhistory.‒Fairfax reports judges receive social histories 100% of the time prior tocommitting a juvenile is committed.52

Social History Report (cont.) The timing of social histories, or predisposition reports, varies in otherstates. In Florida, Louisiana, and Pennsylvania, a social history may only becompleted post-adjudication. North Carolina requires a social history be completed “prior to adisposition hearing,” but provides an exception that allows a disposition tooccur without the report where the court makes a written finding that oneis not required. In Texas, a probation officer is required to begin a social history report assoon as charges are filed against a juvenile. Similarly, in Maryland, thecourt may direct a social history report after a petition or citation has beenfiled with the juvenile court.53

Social History Report (cont.) DJJ has established policies and procedures as to what must be includedin a social history. Social histories are supposed to include thefollowing:‒ identifying and demographic information on the juvenile;‒ current offense and prior court involvement;‒ social, medical, psychological, and educational information about thejuvenile;‒ information about the family; and‒ dispositional recommendations, if permitted by the court. An issue that often arises as localities attempt to work together isvariability of the information included in social histories. For some, a checklist may be sufficient, whereas others provide lengthynarratives.55

Social History Report RecommendationsDraft Options1. Amend §16.1 273 of the Code of Virginia to clarify that social historiesmay be completed sooner in the process rather than followingadjudication.2. Amend §16.1-278.8 the Code of Virginia to ensure judges have acompleted social history prior to disposition for juveniles who may becommitted to DJJ.3. Amend §16.1-278.7 of the Code of Virginia to state that a commitmentorder will be supported by a determination that the interests of thejuvenile and community require that the juvenile be committed.4. Request DJJ to create a model social history and guidelines for CSUs to usein assisting the courts in making informed dispositional decisions. Themodel social history and guidelines may include information on obtainingIEP assessments and acknowledge exposure to trauma of a juvenile’s socialhistory report.56

Court Service Units In Virginia, each juvenile and domestic relations court is served by a courtservices unit (CSU). DJJ operates 32 CSUs. In addition, there are 3 CSUswhich function as locally operated entities.* CSU juvenile servicesinclude intake, screening, diversion, placement, preand post-adjudicatory case management, supervision, parole planningand coordination, and a variety of specialized services. Juvenileintake services are provided 24-hours a day, and the intakeofficer has the authority to receive, review, and process complaints. The investigations and reports primarily completed by CSU personnel aresocial history reports, but also include case summaries to the FAPTs,commitment packets for the Reception and Diagnostic Center (RDC),interstate compact reports, transfer reports, parole transition reports,ongoing case documentation, and transitional services referral packets.* The three exceptions are Fairfax, Falls Church, and Arlington.57

Court Service Units (cont.) Because of the number of juveniles with mental health disorders enteringthe juvenile justice system, it would be extremely valuable to have aperson within the CSU to conduct mental health and substance abusescreenings, assessments, and evaluations. Assessing juveniles earlier in the process would enable judges to moveforward with dispositional and other decisions, equipped with moreinformation and a more complete understanding of what might be theappropriate action to take for the juvenile.‒‒The 31st CSU (Manassas, Manassas City, & Prince William) has a court psychologist whoadministers, scores, and interprets psychological and behavioral tests, reports on findingsand makes recommendation for treatment plans. The court psychologist also conductsfield visits to facilities pending court hearings or placements in treatment facilities andtestifies in court to present the results of interviews and evaluations. The court psychologistattends FAPT meetings and assists in the development of service and treatmentstrategies.The 29th CSU covering the counties of Bland, Buchanan, Dickenson, Giles, Russell, andTazewell have a psychologist on staff. Attorneys will request a psychological evaluation ifthey feel that it is necessary. Usually, a mental health evaluation has been completedbefore commitment is recommended.58

Court Service Units RecommendationsDraft Options1. Introduce a budget amendment to fund up to one qualified mental healthprofessional (QHMP) for each CSU that best suits their particular needs,including conducting mental health, substance abuse, and/or traumascreenings, assessments, and evaluations. Provide the CSU with theflexibility to hire the position or to enter into a Memorandum ofUnderstanding with their local CSB.OR2. Introduce a budget amendment authorizing CSUs to contract with a QHMPfor the provision of mental health, substance abuse, and/or traumascreenings, assessments, and evaluations. Provide the CSU with theflexibility to hire the position, to contract with the local CSB, or to contractwith a private provider.59

CSB Services in Juvenile Detention Centers In FY 2008, the General Assembly appropriated 110,000 state general funds forCSBs affiliated with a local detention facility so that CSBs could provide mentalhealth screening, assessment services, and community-based referrals forjuveniles in detention.‒ These programs began in 2003 with federal grant funds provided by theDepartment of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) for approximately 500,000.00. A 10% cash match from the grantee was required.‒ Federal funds from DCJS were discontinued in 2008. The Department ofBehavioral Health and Developmental Services (DBHDS) assumed the costsusing state general funds. A licensed mental health therapist and a case manager employed by the CSB,housed at the juvenile detention facility are present at each program site. The CSB’s role is the provision of consultation and mental health services forjuveniles with mental health disorders and/or co-occurring substance usedisorders who are detained in the center.60

CSB Services in Juvenile Detention Centers(cont.) Detention Home Survey‒ Six detention homes indicated that their CSB’s clinicians' hours had beenreduced and/or diverted to perform duties at the CSB.‒ Data provided by the DBHDS reveals that, overall, state funds to CSBs fordetention center services had not been significantly reduced.o The state general funds distributed by DBHDS for CSB services in localdetention homes were originally designated as “restricted”.o These funds were later classified as “earmarked” meaning CSBs must spendthe funds for the identified purpose but CSBs do not have to reportexpenditures tied specifically to those funds.‒‒‒In FY 2012, total juvenile detention center costs for the 23 CSBs was 3,552,897.The state general fund appropriation for these services was 2,569,652.Local funds comprised the difference.62

CSB Services in Juvenile Detention Centers(cont.) Based on FY 2014 Letters of Notification to the 23 CSBs,DBHDS will disburse 2,401,656 for mental health services injuvenile detention centers. Of the 23 CSBs, 17 will each receive approximately 111,724 6 CSB will receive lesser amounts. If all 23 CSBs received the full amount ( 111,724), the totaldisbursed would be 2,569,652. Subtracting the total amount for the 23 CSBs ( 2,401,656)from the amount above ( 2,569,652) leaves reduction of 167,996 that would need to be offset.63

CSB Services in Juvenile Detention Centers(cont.)Feedback from Site Visits/Survey – Detention Centers Some detention home representatives expressed concerns because theirclinicians’ hours have been reduced/diverted to perform duties at theCSB.‒One detention center representative is considering hiring its ownclinician since the localities are so territorial and some Post-Dresidents receive no services depending on their jurisdiction. Another common response was that executive directors at the CSBs didnot fully understand or support the mandate and the rationale for theseservices. Several detention center representatives stated that there was effectivecollaboration between their detention center and CSB but worried thismay change in the future should existing CSB staff leave or retire.64

CSB Services in Juvenile Detention Centers(cont.)Feedback from Site Visits/Survey – CSBs CSB representatives emphasized the need for flexibility. On average,there has been a decline of detention admissions. There should beagreements in place to maximize mental health services for juvenileoffenders. CSB representatives also noted the level of intensity for the juvenilesthey serve has also increased significantly.‒One locality has two full-time clinicians in their detention center.While the level of intensity and service need has escalated, theMemorandum of Understanding between the CSB and the detentioncenter has not been revised to address this.65

CSB Services in Juvenile Detention CentersRecommendationsDraft Options1. Request the DBHDS to work with Virginia’s detention home superintendents and CSBexecutive directors to facilitate a quantifiable agreement for the provision of mentalhealth and substance use screening, assessment, and other services identified asnecessary for juveniles in detention. DBHDS will provide guidance and technicalassistance and assist in the creation of a model memorandum of understanding or otherquantifiable arrangements between the detention homes and the CSBs. The agreementmay include, but is not limited to, the
