Report 2019-116: Juvenile Justice Crime Prevention Act: Weak Oversight Has Hindered Its Meaningful Implementation (Release Date: May 2020)

Recommendation #15 To: Los Angeles County Probation Department

To accurately assess the effectiveness of its programs, Los Angeles should determine how to accurately identify in its case management system the JJCPA programs and services in which each individual participates or should enhance its system to provide this capability.

Annual Follow-Up Agency Response From October 2021

As mentioned in our 1-Year response (submitted 5/12/2021), the County of Los Angeles Probation Department's case management system is designed to track Probation youth case information only as models are designed to meet other criteria. The County consulted with our JJCPA evaluator to develop a draft process to track JJCPA funded services for Probation youth in our case management system; implementation is targeted for potential preliminary review by our JJCPA evaluator prior to the next 1-Year audit response due date of Fall 2022.

  • Estimated Completion Date: Fall 2022

60-Day Agency Response

The County of Los Angeles Probation Department's case management system is designed to track Probation youth case information only and is not designed for non-Probation youth or all participant information as models are designed to meet other criteria. Therefore, all program participation cannot be captured in the current system as designed. We will continue to seek ways to upgrade Probation's case management system to meet the evolving needs of data collection and evaluation.

  • Estimated Completion Date: June 2022
  • Response Date: July 2020
