California Youth Committed to a SYTF

In July of 2023, Assembly Bill (AB) 102 was signed into legislation to facilitate the collection of specific juvenile justice data related to the realignment of the Division of Juvenile Justice.  AB 102 requires county probation departments to provide the Office of Youth and Community Restoration (OYCR) with data disaggregated by gender, age, race/ethnicity, and offense regarding: 

(a). Number of youth and their commitment offense or offenses, if known, who are under the county’s supervision that are committed to a secure youth treatment facility, including youth committed to secure youth treatment facilities in another county.

Other data points from the AB 102 data collection requirement will be made available soon.

 

The first year of reporting was due to OYCR on December 30, 2023, and included data spanning fiscal year (FY) 2021-22 and FY 2022-23. Reporting for FY 2023-24 is due to OYCR no later than December 30, 2024.

 

Limitations and Considerations:

 

Please note, the data shown in the dashboard were reported by the counties. Although OYCR reviewed the data for validity and reliability, we cannot certify the data is error free. All data was reported at an aggregate level for each fiscal year. The disaggregated data by age, gender, race and ethnicity, and offense category was made available when appropriate based on OYCR’s data de-identification guidelines. If a count is less than 12, it will not display within the dashboard. This also means that percentages will not add up to 100% due to rounding or nullified data.
