July 3, 2020 Steve Sentman, Chief Probation Officer Orange County Probation Department P.O. Box 10260 Santa Ana, CA 92711 ORANGE COUNTY JUVENILE HALL (JH) BSCC #7376 ORANGE COUNTY YOUTH LEADERSHIP ACADEMY (YLA) BSCC #7388 ORANGE COUNTY YOUTH GUIDANCE CENTER (YGC) BSCC #7385 2018-2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION PURSUANT TO WIC 209 and 885 Chief Sentman: On April 13, 2020, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code sections 209 and 885, BSCC staff completed the 2018/2020 Biennial Inspection of the Orange County Juvenile Hall, Youth Leadership Academy and Youth Guidance Center via a desk audit. To prepare for this inspection, a pre‐inspection briefing was held on February 20, 2019. This inspection was performed to determine compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations. In addition, BSCC staff conducted compliance monitoring pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) for the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) for the separation requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults. Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the issuance of statewide and local shelter‐in‐place orders, BSCC staff were prohibited from traveling and unable to complete on‐site inspections from March 16 through June 30, 2020, the end of the 2018/2020 biennial inspection cycle. BSCC staff conducted virtual inspections via desk audit of all facilities originally scheduled for inspection during this time. Desk audits are comprised of a comprehensive review of all applicable policies and procedures and documentation (where available). It is noted we were on-site at the juvenile hall when the travel restriction was implemented and although we were unable to complete many aspects, we were able to review documentation already available for the scheduled inspection. BSCC staff intend to conduct comprehensive on‐site inspections of all local detention facilities as soon as travel restrictions are lifted. We reviewed your updated Policy and Procedures Manual1; all Local Inspections; annual reviews of Security and Emergency practices; and, documents and forms used by the agency. The documentation specific to your high-risk incidents were assessed to ensure compliance with regulation and policy. 1 1 BSCC does not review all of your policies and procedures. We do not “approve” your policies and procedures, nor do we review them for constitutional or legal issues. We recommend agencies seek review through their legal advisor, risk manager and other persons deemed appropriate. 7376 7385 7388 Orange JH, YGC, YLA 18-20 Chief Sentman Orange P. 2 The BSCC inspection report consists of this transmittal letter and the attached Title 15 Procedures checklist. We are including the PHY and LASE for your information only; your staff indicated that there were no changes to the physical plant since the previous inspection. Compliance is indicated by policy and/or documentation review. Please refer to the Title 15 Procedures Checklist for a summary of all relevant minimum standards, indication of compliance or noncompliance, and information used to determine compliance. Mandatory Local Inspections In addition to the biennial inspection, Title 15, Section 1313 and its authorizing statute require local inspections conducted by the following authorities: County Building Inspection by agency designated by the Board of Supervisors; Fire authority having jurisdiction; Local health officer; County superintendent of schools; Juvenile Court; and, Juvenile Justice Commission. Results of these inspections are considered as part of this report. The dates of the local inspections may be found in the Title 15 Procedures Checklist. Inspection Results Title 15, CCR Minimum Standards The Operations, Education and Programming sections of this report will be in general terms for all facilities, with specific emphasis to individual facilities as noted below. Operations As part of our inspection process, we review a sampling of incident reports, grievances, admission and classification reports, case plans and counseling notes, and disciplinary reports and findings to ensure compliance with new Title 15 Regulations and to ensure procedures and process were consistent with your policies. The regulation revisions made in 2019 required agencies to develop, modify and enhance policies and procedures. The size of the agency and three separate programs created challenges; however, each team member facilitated the necessary changes to ensure all aspects of regulation transformed into the day to day operations. There were no policy related concerns at any of the facilities. Each program maximizes resources to ensure reports and documentation are reviewed and maintained for audit purposes. We were able to evaluate a sampling of documentation related to your high-risk incidents for content, clarity and inclusion of all required elements. Any discrepancies or omissions are returned for completion and administratively reviewed. This process allows for a succinct and thorough evaluation of facility operations and revealed youth supervision expectations are compliant with regulation. We resolved a few issues with updated forms and as of the writing of this report, no operational discrepancies were noted. We reviewed facility schedules and found the units operate a full and complete program of structured and unstructured activities. With decreasing populations and your noted compliance to PREA staffing levels, youth supervision is intensive. We were unable to interview staff or agency partners but look forward to doing so when we return for our full, on-site inspection. 7376 7385 7388 Orange JH, YGC, YLA 18-20 Chief Sentman Orange P. 3 Education The Orange County Office of Education operates the two separate school systems for the facilities: the Otto J. Fisher School for Juvenile Hall and the Youth Leadership Academy and the Rio Contiquo High School for the Youth Guidance Center. Upon review of the Education Evaluation, staffing elements and policy, each on-site program has general education teachers, special education and resource staff and para-professional staff. Class duration exceeds minimum requirements and the Office of Education has incorporated post-secondary learning for eligible youth. Juvenile Hall, the Youth Leadership Academy and the Youth Guidance Center (YGC) offer ROP, Independent Living instruction and vocational education opportunities. YGC has Safe Schools on-site to assist youth in transitioning into Community College and enroll/participate in employment opportunities off-site. Each facility offers GED preparation and traditional high school courses, also providing services outside the classroom to assist with graduation, post-secondary opportunities and job readiness. Programming Juvenile Hall houses pre-and post- adjudicated youth resulting in short term incarceration. The Youth Leadership Academy and Youth Guidance Center provide short and long-term programing for male and female committed youth. Each facility provides an array of programs and services to meet the youth’s individual needs, based on their case plans and forged objectives. The structured programs and unstructured recreation activities are facilitated by collaborative partnerships, outside volunteers and probation staff. All youth in detention and in the camp setting participate in social awareness programs to address the behaviors identified at admission, targeting the actions leading to their incarceration. Structured programs include: Aggression Replacement Therapy; Thinking for Change; Just Beginning, Parenting; FLOW, Poetry Program; EPIC’s, Effective Corrections Practices; Orange Blossom/Girls, Inc, Girls only Self Esteem Program; Mind Meditation, Yoga; My Life Choices, Pro-Social Development; Padres Unidos, Parenting; Functional Fitness; Decision Points, Cognitive Behavior Program; Life Skills; Anger Management; Conflict Resolution; Moral and Ethical Reasoning; Restorative Justice; Community Service; NA/AA; Cultural Awareness; Community Council; Gang Intervention; FEAR, Face Everything and Recover Program; Woodshop Apprentice; Library; and a variety of other recreational activities provided by volunteers, teaching staff, mental health providers, Safe Schools and probation staff. Each of the programs and the agency facilitators resonate a pro-treatment approach to working with Orange County youth. We look forward to our return to the facilities to see the program components in action. Title 15, CCR Minimum Standards Our virtual inspection included many communications with facility administrators regarding their consolidation of department practices into one manual which guide staff and promote expectations. We provided some technical assistance as it related to the Policy Manual as well as specific forms and documentation efforts. Each was well received and the assistance from managers to find resolution was positive. It is these efforts and the well-rounded opportunities for youth that drive a successful program. 7376 7385 7388 Orange JH, YGC, YLA 18-20 Chief Sentman Orange P. 4 The attached Procedures Checklist provides a detailed overview of the inspection findings. Upon final review of all documentation, there are no outstanding items of noncompliance at the Orange County Juvenile Hall, Youth Leadership Academy or Youth Guidance Center. No corrective action is required. Title 24, CCR Physical Plant There were no changes made to the physical plant and your rated capacities noted on the attached Living Area Space Evaluations for each facility remain the same. Each facility has ‘self-capped” populations based on fewer admissions. On the day of the inspection, Juvenile Hall continued to cap at 380 (RC: 434); the Youth Leadership Academy caps at 64 (RC: 120); and the Youth Guidance Center caps at 80 (RC:125). As of the writing of this report, the new construction project on the grounds of Juvenile Hall, including a Multi-Purpose area with a gymnasium, two vocational classrooms, two program areas and a visiting/multi-purpose space, is approximately 12% complete. The current assessment for completion is August 2021. I look forward to working with you and your team as construction continues and we are able to attend meetings throughout the build. Training The most recent Standards and Training for Corrections audit reports that the Orange County Probation Department is compliant with all relevant regulations and mandates. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance Monitoring There have been no violations of JJDPA this inspection cycle and no areas of non-compliance were noted. We are pleased with the virtual audit findings and operational aspects of the Orange County Juvenile Hall, Youth Leadership Academy and Youth Guidance Center. We would again like to thank you and compliment your staff for their dedication, thoroughness and responsiveness during this desk audit inspection. This concludes our 2018-2020 inspection report. We are available to assist as needed and are always happy to provide technical assistance when requested. We look forward to continuing to work together.
